The story

Digit began as a standalone automated savings app (digit.co) using AI to move small amounts into savings without user effort. After acquisition by Oportun in 2021, it became the consumer-facing savings and financial wellness product within Oportun's broader fintech platform. The product now encompasses Set & Save automated savings, personal loans (via Oportun), and investment features, with the Digit brand serving as the consumer interface for Oportun's embedded finance stack.
