Introduction to the Eco App

With the Eco App, you can earn 2.5% on your balance (up to 5% when you refer friends) and get a 5% cashback for purchases at your favorite merchants. The app enables you to manage all your everyday finances in one place. If you want to get started with the Eco App, this is the right place for you. In the following, we are going to detail how you can get the app. We will also walk you through the first steps of using the app, including funding your account and making purchases.

How can I get the Eco App?

The Eco App is in beta and is only available on iOS for users in the United States in an eligible state. Eco is not yet available in these US states: HI, TX, NY, CT, NH, VA or VT.

The Eco team is opening up the app more and more to the public. Currently, the app is limited to early waitlist users, employees at partnering companies, and their referrals. If you know someone already using the Eco App, ask for a referral!
