The case study leads with three stacked multipliers that each reinforce the same conclusion: connecting via Plaid makes Chime members more valuable across funding, spend, and retention. The 5x spend figure is the sleeper stat because it ties directly to Chime's interchange revenue model, making the ROI case concrete without Plaid having to claim it directly.
