How to Get a Chime Bank Statement

Chime generates statements monthly for Checking and Savings accounts, and by billing cycle for Credit Builder. You get an email when a new statement is ready.

Chime does not send paper statements. If you need a printed copy, download the PDF and print it yourself. Each statement shows the month’s ending balance in its own section, such as Checking Account Statement or Savings Account Statement.

Chime has no branches, so there is no banker who can sign a letter in person. The documents you can get yourself in the app are your monthly statements and a direct deposit form, which shows your name, account number, routing number, and Chime’s partner bank.

To get the direct deposit form, tap Move, then Set up direct deposit, then Get direct deposit form. Chime emails you the completed PDF, which also includes a voided check for employers that ask for one. If someone insists on a formal letter, ask Chime support in the app what they can provide, and ask the requester whether statements plus the direct deposit form will work instead.

Because Chime does not issue signed letters at a branch, proof of funds from Chime usually means your most recent monthly statement showing the ending balance. Some recipients will also accept a bank-connected report that shows current balances.

Check what the recipient will accept before you rely on Chime alone for a large purchase. Many title companies and sellers expect a letter or statement dated within the last 30 to 60 days.

Yes. Chime works with Plaid, the service most budgeting, lending, and income apps use to read bank data. Search for Chime by name in the bank list. You do not need to know which partner bank holds your account.

Sign in with the email and password you use for the Chime app, and approve any security code Chime sends. You can see and remove apps you have connected through Plaid at my.plaid.com.

Send the PDF you downloaded, not screenshots, and send only the months they ask for. Two or three recent statements are typical for a rental application. Lenders often want two full months with every page, including blank ones.

A statement shows every purchase you made that month. If you would rather share a summary, you can connect your Chime account and create an income report from your bank deposits. It shows recurring deposits and an estimated monthly income, and it comes straight from the bank, so the person reading it does not have to wonder whether a PDF was edited.
