About Wells Fargo

On March 18, 1852, our founders—Henry Wells and William G. Fargo—built an innovative start-up to help customers build businesses and manage money in a rapidly changing world. Their dedication to finding creative solutions and advocating for more inclusive communities continues to inspire generations of change-makers to build the history of what’s next.

For generations, we’ve been helping people go further. From exchanging gold coins for paper checks to enabling online transactions, we’re continually innovating so our customers can get ahead.
