“MoneyLion has cooperated in good faith with the CFPB for over three years regarding our membership offering. Our innovative membership program helps service members and other customers save, invest, build credit and improve their overall financial lives.

The claims made by the Bureau about our membership offering, a product that represents a small subset of MoneyLion’s business, are without merit. MoneyLion has the highest regard for its military and veteran customers and are committed to working with this important community to help them achieve better financial health. MoneyLion is honored to serve this important segment of its customer base and is grateful for the sacrifice these men and women have made for our country.
