About Jiko
The idea for Jiko came from the consequences of the 2008 financial crisis, when our team experienced the balance sheet and technology limits of the current money system while working on Wall Street. Witnessing what big banking had done to individual deposits, our team united around the idea that there must be another way to protect citizens' hard earned cash.
Since the company’s official founding in 2017, we have raised over $50M from investors who also believe that the system doesn’t have to be predatory to be profitable. In September 2020, Jiko became the first fintech to acquire a national bank, and we’re now building an innovative, trusted financial platform to offer a new way to store, invest and spend: A new foundation for money.
“Rather than ceding the yield on those investments to the typical bank, which takes deposits and buys Treasuries or lends out the money, the Jiko customer keeps it.”
“Jiko is a very different kind of bank that invests consumer deposits directly into U.S. treasury bills, allowing them to reap a higher yield.”
"When you open an account with Jiko it doesn’t hold your deposits itself on its balance sheet and immediately converts them into T-Bills. That means that you then get the returns from these T-Bills.”
“Jiko’s unusual, slow-and-steady approach isn't its only point of differentiation... (it's) the peace of mind in knowing one's funds are secured with government debt."
Due to high demand, access to Jiko membership is currently on an invite-only basis. You can join the waitlist of 50,000 to be contacted when membership is available.
