Atom Bank is a mobile banking application that provides a range of personal and business banking services exclusively through its app. Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Durham, UK, it has positioned itself as the UK's first bank designed for digital and optimized for mobile users, offering services without any physical branches. Atom Bank's product offerings typically include savings accounts, mortgages, business loans, and more, all managed through an intuitive, secure, and user-friendly mobile app interface. The bank emphasizes customer experience, leveraging technology such as biometric security for identity verification and providing 24/7 customer support. As a challenger bank, Atom Bank aims to disrupt the traditional banking landscape by offering competitive rates, low fees, and a focus on innovation and customer service.

24/7 availability- anytime, anywhere
No matter where you are, at home or abroad, you can access your Atom Bank account via the app, check your account balance, control your savings, get customer support, make payments and even freeze your debit card if needed. In addition, get real-time notifications every time you make a transaction, so there won’t be any surprises at the end of the month. No need to make appointments, stand in line and lose working hours to manage your finances.
Get approved fast
Opening an account with Atom Bank is simple, with no lengthy paperwork. Just download the app, prove your identity, top up your account and you’re ready to go. Atom Bank doesn’t require a copy of your credit history to approve your account, meaning you can open an account and get approved in minutes.
Lower fees
Another main reason to use Atom Bank is the low (or no!) fees. Atom Bank has no physical branches, therefore they can offer lower fees than traditional banks – especially when it comes to ATM withdrawals, money exchange/transfer and payments abroad. For example, Atom Bank offers zero fees on all transactions, including purchases made overseas!
Makes traveling easier
Atom Bank = borderless banking. Low/no exchange rates and low/no ATM withdrawal fees worldwide make traveling a whole lot easier (and cheaper) than with traditional banks- especially in the eurozone. And for added safety, freeze or unfreeze your debit card while you travel, directly in the app.
Go paperless
One of the frustrating things about traditional banks is the amount of documents, contracts and letters that are sent to your mailbox. With Atom Bank everything you need is in the app and all communications are sent to your app or your email. Gone are the days of rummaging through piles of paper around your house – and protecting the environment is the cherry on top.
