Chip is an app that automatically puts money aside for people, so they can save up for their goals without thinking about it. The free app, available on iOS and Android, uses AI to decide what to save, sends users a notification saying how much money they are about to put aside (with an option to cancel). An e-wallet is opened on customers’ behalf with our trusted partner, Prepaid Financial Services Limited.
