Bunq, the bank of The Free, emerged in 2012 with a vision to revolutionize banking, led by serial entrepreneur Ali Niknam. The launch of the bunq app in 2015 marked a paradigm shift, establishing a user-centric bank challenging traditional models. As the second-largest neobank in the EU, bunq empowers over 10 million users daily, simplifying finances and providing full control. Achieving profitability in December 2022, bunq made history as the first profitable EU neobank. In July 2023, the company set its sights on the U.S. market, applying for a banking license. With quadrupled deposits in 2023, bunq continues to grow exponentially, committed to helping users achieve financial goals globally.
