I was approved for a $50 andance
I was approved for a $50 andance. Total transfer to my bank? $19.00! $19.99 subscription to Compass and 11.01 was added to the balance to their,"cornerstore.". The 11.01 is required to be able to access an advance! I do not give 50 fuks what the AP says the, $19.99 compass subscription is not a choice. I was never asked never offered anything. The terms read that EITHER cornerstore purchase OR Compass membership is needed to access cash advance option. Payback amount owed? $38.99 makes no sense to me...

Hi there — we’re sorry to hear the experience was frustrating. Gerald combines Buy Now, Pay Later and Cash Advance services. You can use part of your advance to shop in our e-store or Compass, our AI-powered financial assistant, and after meeting the activation threshold, enjoy a free Instant Cash Advance transfer to your bank with no upfront payments, interest, or late fees.
You can choose to spend the full threshold in our store or split it between the store and Compass. Compass spending counts 2x toward the threshold, helping you reach it faster.
Unlike apps that charge subscription fees out of pocket, Gerald has no membership or hidden fees. We’re committed to improving communication and transparency. For more information, please check our Terms of Use or FAQ, or contact [email protected].

They are shady and greedy liars
They are shady and greedy liars. They somehow get access to other banking accounts from their app being on your phone. They need to be shut down
