Add Chime app and Stride Bank to Fitbit Pay

Chime is a rockin' online banking app run by Stride Bank in Oklahoma, but it is not currently serviced by FitPay. Adding them to your roster of serviceable institutions would be keen.

I cannot second this enough; Chime is one of the best "debit/spending" accounts to have on hand, and it's cumbersome to go back out to the car for my phones Google Pay because FitPay doesn't yet support Chime

I agree with the original poster, Chime is an amazing banking app and I would love to be able to use Fitbit Pay

I'm not sure if there is a better bank than Chime. Customer service is A+, no fees ever, and credit builder is amazing. Please get Chime on board!!

I could not agree more! I loved everything about the Fitbit except that it would not take my preferred (and only) bank account, which is Chime. I actually went as far as to try a competitors product due to how unsatisfied I was, but came back to the Fitbit because I loved everything else about it. Chime is an absolutely fantastic banking institution. You honestly should give them an opportunity.

Yes please add chime to Fitbit pay. My husband and I use Chime for all of our everyday transactions and it's very aggravating not to be able to use it with my watch

Please add Chime Bank, not having chime is really inspiring me to return the product.

It would be FANTASTIC if you could add chime and stride to fit pay because there's millions of card holders and lots of us have fitbit too. We pay alot for these things man and it shouldn't be limited to only those with fancy bank buildings only. Not fair. Not American. A card is a card man! And not for nothing, chime is a Visa card so...?

It would be so nice for chime to be added, I use chime as my bank and it would be quite useful to have the option to add my card to Fitbit pay and have a speedy no touch payment option alternative to the chip method and faulty chip readers not wanting to read the chips

Yes please add Chime. Seeing as this is over a year old, I don't think it will happen but it is worth a try.

Bump. 

Super silly to me that I can add my Bancorp/Stride Chime cards to Google wallet, but can't integrate them to fitpay -- this is my only bank account and thus renders an entire feature useless.  Bancorp is on the list of partnered banks, so what gives?  Seriously considering returning my two day old Charge 6 and swapping to a competitor that I know supports it. 

It's 2024, banking trends are changing.  Get with it!
