Aspiration and Postmates Partner to Offer Better Financial Solutions to Essential Workers


LOS ANGELES, July 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Aspiration, America's socially-conscious financial firm, announced today that it is partnering to provide Postmates Fleet members with access to Aspiration's suite of financial offerings, including Aspiration's Spend and Save account which provides a better and more sustainable alternative to the big banks.

Financially, Aspiration's account offers the opportunity for customers to save up to $300 or more per year, compared to big banks. It offers a Pay What's Fair (even zero) monthly fee and extra services at cost, fee-free access at over 55,000 Allpoint ATMs, up to 10% cash back on debit card purchases and up to 15x higher interest than the national savings average.

And, while big banks put over $200 billion a year of customer money towards fossil fuel companies and projects like oil drilling and pipelines, Aspiration helps customers align their money with their values by offering fossil fuel free deposits, enabling customers to plant a tree every time they round up their purchase to the nearest dollar, showing AIM (Aspiration Impact Measurement) People/Planet impact scores for the places they shop, and allowing them to drive carbon neutral by providing offsets for every gallon of gas they purchase as part of Aspiration Plus.

"Providing the best resources to the Postmates fleet is a huge priority for us. Working ith Aspiration to be able to provide a great banking solution to bolster financial wellness for our couriers is a seamless fit to our portfolio of benefits and resources," noted Rachel Kamen, who oversees Postmates' Fleet resources, adding that "Aspiration provides exactly the type of premium benefits that will help our fleet do better for themselves and for their future."
