This seemed to be glaringly absent

I was very surprised that there was no information about this bank/fintech company on Wikipedia, given the fact that it has 3mm users and raised half a billion dollars in the last four years. Online banks, because of their "touchless" nature, had a real boost in during 2020 partly because of COVID. Obviously, please direct any criticisms or concerns to me here or at my talk page. Thanks!

Re: See also section

This section isn't so much a "see also" as it is a list of competitors. And there are many more competitors than are listed in this article currently. And without listing competitors, it is not clear that this organization is part of a transformative trend in financial services. Meanwhile, the article is not dense enough to have a section about "competition" -- does anyone have a way to address? Middleground1 (talk) 20:32, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Renaming the article to the trade name

I've noticed other company pages on Wikipedia using the trade name as the article name, while prominently mentioning the "corporation name in the first line. For example, this is Current's competitor Chime (company). The name of the article is Chime, and in the first line the article reads "Chime Financial, Inc. is an American financial technology company "

Suggest renaming this article to "Current (company)" and editing the first sentence to say "Current (Finco Services, Inc.) is a New York City-based financial services and software development company (FinTech)." Alteralias (talk) 22:47, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Finco Services → Current (financial services company) – It's common to title articles based on the commonly used name of the company. Competitors to this brand use the same structure where the article title is the dba name, and the full corporate name is included in the article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chime_(company)

Proposed "Current (financial services company)" to disambiguate from the out of business Current (company) which is a different entity. Alteralias (talk) 21:26, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support, and redirect Current (company) to the dabpage at Current. 162 etc. (talk) 16:24, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
