Salt was founded with the mission to enable hourly workers to own the long-term value of their work

Now part of Chime, the leading financial technology company servicing millions of everyday Americans, Salt was founded by a team with a history of developing technology for the everyday worker.

Fun Fact - In Roman times, salt was highly valued, not only as a preservative but as a form of currency. In fact, soldiers were often paid in salt, which is where the Latin word "salarium"—the origin of the English word "salary"—comes from.

We've created  a system that extends the value of one’s work into the future. Salt is about rewarding work. It preserves the value of today’s efforts and allows employees to enjoy the benefits of their hard work into the future.
