User reviews

Not user friendly

Too many steps to claim money. Look at daily pay..easy

terrible app.

if the app crashes, expect to go weeks without being able access your money. customer service doesn’t answer 90% of the time. and when they do, they give you the runaround. want to speak to a supervisor? expect to be told no or not get a call back for days (if you even get a call back). wouldn’t recommend this app at all.

Paycheck

Not a loan… VERY cool

Was pleasantly impressed with the app. Allows you to instantly withdraw some of your next paycheck. No debt or credit anything.

NOT GOOD

My account has been locked for almost a month now. Not able to log in keep receiving a error. Message stating “account is temporarily locked due to suspicious activity.”

When I call, none of the representatives can give me a straightforward answer I’ve been told for almost a month now that it will be resolved in 24 to 48 hours which obviously has not happened. I’ve even spoken with a supervisor who assured me that this will be resolved and still no luck. I’ve provided all supporting documents.
They have not been able to resolve this. Think twice before you use this service.
