At NerdWallet, we know that the effects of our decisions can extend far beyond the people directly accessing our content, website, and app. That’s why we work hard to align our business decisions with environmental, social, and governance causes that positively impact our immediate and global communities.

In the following report, we outline our ongoing ESG initiatives in detail, from our corporate social responsibility program to our diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts to our community engagement work, just to name a few.

How — and why — we do business

OUR MISSION

To provide clarity for all of life’s financial decisions.

OUR VISION

A world where everyone makes financial decisions with confidence.

Our Values

We live and breathe our values every single day — not just for ourselves, but for our consumers and our communities, too.

Consumer, Company, Team, Self
We lean on each other to succeed. Understanding different viewpoints and celebrating our coworkers' wins lead to stronger decisions and teams.
Relentless Self-Improvement
We take responsibility for getting better every day. We humbly embrace what we don't know and aren't afraid to ask questions.
Open, Candid, and Constructive
We are active participants in every interaction. We share feedback with clarity and receive feedback with courage.
Informed Risk-Taking
We set actionable goals that challenge the status quo, knowing it’s safe to fail so long as we learn along the way.
Ownership
We ask, “What can I do to improve the results?” and view challenges as opportunities to find the right solution.
