About us

We’re Zopa, and we want to make money work better for you. Our diverse team is united in their mission of creating simple, fair and honest financial products that have the customer’s needs at their heart. We’re proud that this dedication is reflected in our excellent rating on TrustPilot. We’ve always been unapologetically honest with our customers, and value the same in return. Their feedback helps us shape what we build, so we can provide a bank fit for today, and for the future. We’re not the new kids on the block though - we’ve been a pioneering force in finance for 16 years. In 2005, we built the first ever peer-to-peer (P2P) lending company, giving our customers access to loans built for real-life and intelligent investments backed by cutting-edge tech. In 2020, we launched Zopa Bank, meaning we could offer more – like fixed term savings backed by FSCS protection and a credit card to help customers take control of their finances. We’ve lent out over £6 billion and are proud to have made money work better for over half a million people across the UK, whether they were looking to borrow or save.

🌟 We recently held an incredible evening of speed networking at our Zopa office! 🌟 🤝 This event was hosted by the Women in Business Network at Zopa, our newly launched Employee Resource Group. The WIBN is dedicated to empowering women and fostering an inclusive workplace. ⏰ Designed in a 'speed-dating' format, the mixer kept everyone engaged with quick-fire questions directed at our senior leaders, ensuring fast-paced and focused conversations. 💬 The level of engagement was fantastic, with over 20 of our senior leadership in attendance, and some amazing feedback from both sides! 💪 As we continue our journey with WIBN, we are committed to breaking down barriers and creating opportunities for all. Together, we’re building a more equitable future at Zopa Bank. A huge thank you to everyone who joined to connect and share their insights, and a big shout-out to the WIBN organisers for their hard work in making this event a success! ✨🙌

We are proud to be taking part in today’s International Investment Summit 2024. As a UK-based company, we believe that our country is an exceptional global hub for business, offering a dynamic and cutting-edge environment underpinned by world-class infrastructure, a highly skilled workforce, and a reliable regulatory framework. With unparalleled access to international markets and a strong network of trade agreements, many innovative businesses have flourished in the UK's pro-business landscape. The UK fintech sector, in particular, stands as Europe's leading investment destination, attracting an impressive £3 billion in venture capital in 2020 alone. Globally the UK ranks second for fintech investment, trailing only the US. The UK government’s steadfast commitment to foreign investment, exemplified by initiatives like Great.gov.uk, has streamlined the process of businesses establishing, growing, and succeeding in the UK. Going forward – economic stability, with a clear roadmap for growth will maintain this momentum. It is also important that measures such as investment incentives and taxation - that have helped attract new companies and global talent to the UK remain compelling, providing confidence for companies to grow responsibly and create a strong competitive landscape which will benefit consumers. With a favourable regulatory environment, a competitive set of market conditions and significant consumer appetite for innovation, the UK can remain the perfect breeding ground for businesses to flourish. #UKInvestment Department for Business and Trade
