SoFi Technologies, Inc. (commonly known as SoFi) is an American personal finance and fintech company founded at Stanford University in 2011.[3][4] It offers loans, credit cards, investing, insurance and banking products, while also serving financial institutions via its tech platform. SoFi reports 8.8M clients and 158M platform accounts as of 2024.[5][6]

Initially, SoFi focused on providing student loans, using data science to assess risk and offer borrowers lower interest rates.[7] Over time, the company expanded its offerings to include mortgages, personal loans, stock trading services, ETFs, insurance, and banking, ultimately obtaining a U.S. bank charter.[8] SoFi also began supporting other financial institutions with its technology platform during this period.[9][10] The company’s personal loans have been well-received and have been cited to offer "larger loan amounts than most competitors".[11][12][13] SoFi has also gained recognition as a "one-stop shop" for financial services, noted for its "competitive rates" on savings accounts and "free access" to professional financial advisors.[14][15][16]
