Remove "Wells Fargo" as founders and replace with "Chris Britt and Ryan King". Wells Fargo is not a founder of Chime. Gavinsmith976 (talk) 16:28, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

First edit request[edit]

The user below has a request that an edit be made to Chime (company). That user has an actual or apparent conflict of interest.
The requested edits backlog is high. Please be very patient. There are currently 164 requests waiting for review.

Please read the instructions for the parameters used by this template for accepting and declining them, and review the request below and make the edit if it is well sourced, neutral, and follows other Wikipedia guidelines and policies.

Hello, this is my first edit request. I'm here as an employee of Chime and have learned about the rules for editors such as myself that have a conflict of interest. I added my disclosure above, and on my User page. I'm learning and want to make positive contributions so please let me know how my requests can be improved.

To start, I have a suggestion for the History section.

There are four single sentence paragraphs at the end of the section. I think the article would read better if they were combined. I drafted the version below that ties them together and clarified some details. I also removed the claim about the SF office being the "largest office space leased in San Francisco that year" because it seems not particularly encyclopedic. I also omitted the sentence on the lawsuit against the two people impersonating the company as that does not seem like a major moment in Chime's history and did not receive much coverage.

In September 2021, Chime leased 192,000 square feet of office space across six floors in a San Francisco building owned by Hines.^[1] According to a report by Forbes, Chime had planned to hold an initial public offering (IPO) in March 2022. The company delayed its IPO, however, in February 2022.^[2] The company laid off 160 positions, equalling 12% of its workforce, in November 2022.^[3]
