Empower Customer Insights

1. I refused the auto-pay when it was time to pay to see what was gonna happen, fees, interest etc, and I am pleased to report that I just paid it the following month and all I had to pay back was my initial advance plus the fee they do assess for the instant transfer, which is optional.

2. Now, Earnin is instant, so why can't all the other advance apps be the same? I really don't understand all the different time frames.This app is a life saver! There were a few times where I just wasn't going to quite have enough to cover the bills before my next pay check.

3. Being able to get an advance from my own next pay check has helped out so many times! Plus the app is easy to use and they have the option for instant cash if you really need extra money asap!Fast, easy and exactly as televised.

4. Definitely recommend trying it out when you really need the extra cash.So far so good! Got a $250 advance by connecting my bank and debit card to get it instantly with a $8 fee which is a little over 3%.

5. That's two stars all day.This is a really good app! I found it and was able to get an advance within the first time of using it which really helped me in that situation.

6. So far so good, 10/10 would recommend.At first it was kind of hard with the amount they first allowed you to borrow but they do increase the amount eventually and it's has been a tremendous help.

7. Overall, yes, you can get loans, but is it worth what you deal with and the end cost? I don't think so.Had no issues except they attempt to pull the payment a day early which in turn keeps you from higher advances for being on time.

8. There is a $8 a month subscription but, you have a 14 day free trial associated with that so, you can stay subscribed or cancel within that time frame.

9. The things I don't like is how long it takes for the pay back to be credited after its been taken from my checking account, and how the amounts you are "qualified" for change each time.

10. Very helpful!Signed up willing to pay the $8 a month in fees because I needed cash asap.

11. Great! Paid it back 2 days early and got approved for $250.
