ABOUT SPIRAL
We are Spiral and we are building the first bank with a heart!
The retail banking industry is the next-in-line to get disrupted and segmented. We believe that customers will switch to specialized brands that align with their true needs and give them more. Just like environmentalists switch to Tesla over Ford, healthy eaters switch to Whole Foods over Stop & Shop, renters switch to Lemonade over Geico, and many more.
Spiral is a new mission-driven digital bank that rewards and empowers the goodness in people. We reinvent banking with a unique combination of best-in-class banking services, unparalleled technology together with supporting our customer’s passion to help others and to make the world a better place.
We are laser-focused on serving the 40 million people in the US who are passionate about our joint mission. We are building a future where we help our customers improve their financial lives while serving them with the most advanced philanthropic tools that allow them to continue helping themselves, others, and the world.
Founded by two serial entrepreneurs with combined experience in building and leading 5 technology and fintech companies to exits, Spiral has raised $5.1M in seed funding led by Team8 Capital.
