What is Earnin?

Basically, Earnin allows you to access some of your earned wages ahead of payday with their Cash Out product. Earnin is focused on enabling people to access and save the money they’ve already earned, in a way that empowers them, not their bosses. According to an internal analysis conducted by Earnin in January, more than 1.3 million active community members rely on Cash Out as their EWA financial tool.

Are they a traditional lender?

No. Earnin is anything but traditional. They are by the people, for the people. Their services are designed to be an alternative to traditional payday lenders. Unlike Lenders, Earnin doesn’t send out debt collectors or report anyone to credit agencies.

Are there really no fees involved?

Nope, there are no mandatory fees. The platform runs on voluntary tips. At the end of a Cash Out transaction, community members are given the option to tip. According to Earnin’s site, the average tip is less than the average out-of-network ATM fee, tips can be anything between $0 and $14 on a $100 Cash Out, and you will never be refused service if you choose not to tip.
