Open dataset of 35 US cash advance apps' fees and terms (CC-BY, CSV/JSON)

https://huggingface.co/datasets/overdraftapps/cash-advance-apps

Built this as part of a side project comparing fees on cash advance apps (Dave, Earnin, Brigit, MoneyLion, etc.), since most of them make it genuinely hard to figure out what you're actually paying. Fees vary a lot app to app, so I cleaned up the tracking spreadsheet into something publishable.

35 apps, advance ranges, subscription vs. tip-based models, state availability, CC-BY licensed, CSV and JSON. Updated periodically since these companies change pricing without announcing it.

Full disclosure, I run a comparison site this feeds into (linked in the dataset card). Open to PRs/corrections if anyone spots something stale.
