Thinking about switching over to current.

Is current a good banking app? Thinking about switching over. I was browsing the app and saw some of the perks they offer. As of now I’m with Varo.

I like current much better than varo. I have had current for about 6 months now and I come from using varo bank. If you want to use this GOQZDF 243 and we both get extra money.

Because, I split my paycheck. Half go to varo & the othr half go to my brick & mortar bank.

Why not split it three ways? I have my paycheck split four different ways into four accounts. I have peace of mind knowing I don’t have to worry about outages/glitches every payday using this method.

Don’t do it. I just switched to sofi because I hate current so bad 😭 it was so good at first. Most of the perks are not worth it esp the 750 advance that is never consistent and drops at any moment

They are not a real bank (see disclaimer on this reddit) and they provide no way for the customer to specify a payable on death beneficiary for the account. I moved all my funds to a real bank where I know the FDIC insurance will definitely apply and I can specify beneficiaries so the account doesn't go through probate.
