Likely scam

Needs a lot of info from you but won’t give you a loan that was pre-approved for you.

Response from developer

We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We will often send “Pre-Approved” offers to people who meet our initial credit criteria. However, upon initiation of the application, if their information differs from the information used during our pre-approval process, or if they are unable to meet our full criteria at that point in time, we may not be able to approve their application. If you have questions about the process, please feel free to call our support team at 1-800-878-0901, Monday - Friday between 6:00 am - 2:30 pm (PT) / 9:00 am - 5:30 pm (ET).

Can’t even access the app

Let’s me sign in on the website but not the app. Tried day after day with the same outcome. Makes zero sense.

Works sometimes

It works sometimes, generally don't trust what it shows you as numbers lag for weeks. Now I'm just about paid off and it keeps telling me to update the app before I can log in, but the app is up to date, so I can't log in.

Super glitchy

I swear everytime I get on this app it’s a new glitch or issue. Now when I go to open it, it tells me to update yet there is no update available. I even deleted the app, redownloaded it and it still acts like that. Hard to pay the bill when your app don’t work.

Needs Work

Not sure what the problem is, but the app and website are not up to date with my payment history and nothing has updated in two months. I called and confirmed that my payments did go through (I do autopay) but I should be able to see this updated information on my account on the app or website. Quality of service has diminished since I took out this loan. Not sure if they are cutting corners or something, but I won’t be recommending this company to a friend. The rates and clarity at my credit union are better.

Not as good as they portrayed themselves

So this company says they will get you approved no matter what your credit is but that’s not true.. I was trying to get this loan to payoff all my debt so I only had to deal with one payment instead of multiple payments: but as I can see all companies always say one thing and the bottom line is that they all same being untruthful

Frustrating App

Ever since the last few recent updates it has taken the ability for me to pay my loan off the app completely. So the app is pretty much worthless for anything since there is nowhere to pay. Please fix this issue. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app and it doesn’t correct anything.

No problems here

I've used the app for over 2 years and I can't recall iflt ever having problems. Face ID works and it shows my loan progress. Lots of negative reviews but I'm very happy with it, personally. Thank you for the simple interface to track my loan and payments!

Paying off loan is a joke

I got the payment amount to pay it off. I get the animations saying great job and balloons. I log in a few days later to see that I still owe and interest has accumulated as well. This is robbery and bad business. Don’t borrow from them!

Blank load screens…

App doesn’t even load once logged in and gives blank load pages.

Never works.

This app never works for payment, nor is it accurate with payment history. The only way to make payments is to use a computer because this company’s website is not mobile friendly—app or safari. Frustrating.

Junk

This app would be great, if it actually worked. DO NOT rely on this app to be accurate on your due date or payment history. It will usually not be correct. Great concept but doesn’t provide anything

JUST TAKE MY MONEY

Nothing frustrates me more than a company that makes it difficult for me to pay them. I mean, companies provide services for the sole purpose of getting paid for providing that service … why make it difficult for people to pay you?! I opened an account with Wealthfront (easy to find on the App Store) but Happy Money flat out refuses to recognize them as a bank. Everyone else is more than happy to ACH debit that account with the provided routing/account numbers, but Happy Money is like “nah, we don’t want your money from there”. So I’ve had to open a second account JUST for the purpose of paying Happy Money.

Bad text label bug

The dashboard shows the total amount that I’ve paid on the dashboard and lists it as ‘remaining principle balance’ instead of actually showing my outstanding balance.

why so bad tho?

Why is this app so bad? Since the last update I can’t even make a payment and had to login to the website to do so? Can’t make the notifications go away. There’s just a whole blank spot of swipeable nothingness at the bottom? weirdness.

Happy Money’s Interface is TRASH

This app has so many bugs it’s actually crazy. The screenshots you see in the App Store simply is not how it looks. The sad part: the website is worse.

Can’t log in from app

For some reason, it won’t let me log in from the app. I am able to log in pulling it up online.

Horrible system!

I can only make one payment a month of just my standard payment. I can’t make a few payments or pay more than my minimum. It’s very frustrating because I like to pay more than the minimum loan amount.

Missing major features

Please at least add the ability to pay additional payments on top of scheduled payments. Being locked to only autopay or manual pay makes no sense.
