The Cheddr team

Erik Porter
Founder & CEO
I’m passionate about helping people feel in control of their financial lives. Whether it’s taking control of spending, thinking about the future or cutting through the complexity of financial products, I want everyone to have access to high-quality, non-judgemental financial wellbeing support.
Having overcome my own financial demons, including high levels of credit card debt, overspending to keep up with the crowd and seeing the impact that financial dependency can have on relationships, I want to share my experiences and somewhat ‘nerdy’ obsessions with personal finance to help people create a healthy relationship with money that enables positive financial wellbeing.
