Are you tired of blindly trusting your bank with your hard-earned cash? It's time to take control and make a difference with the power of your money. With the growth of the Neobank market projected to reach $394.6bn by 2026, now is the perfect time to choose a bank that aligns with your values.

At bunq, we believe in transparency, sustainability, and giving our users the freedom to choose where their money goes. With 73% of millenials willing to pay more for ethical and sustainable products, it's clear that consumers are looking for a change. And that's exactly what we're here to provide.

Your Money, Your Choice

All banks invest deposits with the intention of making a profit. But what about the impact those investments have on the planet and society? At bunq, we believe you should have the power to decide. That's why we're the only bank in the world to offer Freedom of Choice - a feature that allows you to select the investments that align with your values.

We offer a range of investment options, including Arista certified green companies and personal lending and mortgages. Plus, we make it easy to learn about each option with an information button right in the app. And, we're transparent about the investments we exclude - no more worrying about your money going towards activities like coal mining or gambling.

Education and Transparency: The Future of Banking

Neobanks like bunq have the opportunity to lead the way in creating a more transparent and sustainable banking experience. By educating our customers and empowering them with the knowledge to make informed decisions, we're building a future where banking is not just about making a profit, but about making a positive impact on the world.
