The story

Founded in 2008, FinFit began as an employer-sponsored financial wellness platform offering educational tools, assessments, and coaching to employees. Over time, it layered in embedded financial products — most notably payroll-deducted loans and emergency credit lines — positioning itself as a one-stop financial health benefit for HR buyers. The company is PE-backed and has grown to approximately 84 employees, focusing on the employer distribution channel rather than direct-to-consumer.
