Kin is not a bank.
Kin is the people you trust the most.
With money.
A kin group is a private, shared piggy bank to enable you and the people you trust to achieve things you couldn't do alone, whether that's paying off a debt or starting a community solar farm.
Anyone can start a group.
Friends, families, colleagues and neighbors have been pooling money for centuries. Around the world, there are different names for it. We call it Kin.
Kin is not-for-profit.
Our mission is to create an ethical and sustainable financial system to serve communities in the 21st century. That means thinking less like a bank and more like a public library. No interest. No shareholders. No profit*. Just the power of sharing.
Kin is owned by our members.
Think about money differently. Build your community. Become a member.
Kin is a registered social and financial cooperative in the UK.
