Varo’s new brand campaign is anchored in the company’s purpose and ambition: financial opportunity and inclusion for all. The launch phase of the “A bank for all of us” campaign reimagines money and puts modern American consumers at the very core. The campaign highlights the diversity inherent in our communities and features a range of American faces – front and center – on a reimagined $20 bill. The campaign signals Varo’s support for a renewed push to put Harriet Tubman on the face of the $20.
“Varo believes that when people have a healthier relationship with their money, it leads to a healthier relationship with themselves, and with all those closest to them,” said Halle Hutchison, Chief Brand Officer at Varo. “The Varo experience starts with inclusion – and our new campaign seeks to showcase people and communities that are often underrepresented in financial services.”

Varo Bank is designed for the millions of Americans left behind by traditional banks, combining the affordability and accessibility of a fintech app with the strength and breadth of services of a bank. Varo challenges long-held norms in the banking industry by removing barriers to entry, including offering bank accounts with no credit check, no monthly fees and no minimum balance fees. Varo doesn’t charge punitive fees, like overdraft fees, and instead offers free and low cost cash advances to qualifying direct deposit customers, to help their money work harder for them.
“We are thrilled to be launching our brand at a time of renewed hope and commitment to chart a new course for our country,” said Colin Walsh, Founder and CEO of Varo. “Varo is unique among national banks and fintechs combined – we are inclusive, accessible, and designed around the way our customers live. We are determined to work with our customers and our communities to deliver on our promise of ‘A bank for all of us.'”
