LEGAL DISCLOSURE

Gerald does not offer loans. Gerald is NOT a payday loan, cash loan, personal loan, or app to borrow money. By validating your employment you can access money you’ve already earned. Gerald's advance service comes with no minimum or maximum repayment time frame requirements.

EXAMPLE SCENARIO

If you are approved for a $100 advance, you’ll be required to use a specific portion of that advance on our e-store (i.e. Cornerstore). Once this threshold has been met, you can then transfer the remaining balance of the advance to your bank account with no fees attached. For example, if you’re provided with a $100 advance, you may need to allocate at least $50 of this advance towards purchases on Cornerstore. After meeting this requirement, the remaining $50 can be transferred to your bank account hassle-free and with no fees. In this case, your repayment amount will be $100.

(*) Not all users will qualify. Subject to approval policies.

Ratings and reviews

Intentionally misleading. Who in their right mind would be looking to shop for miscellaneous items (that never arrive btw) when they are actively seeking money for bills? Furthermore, what makes you think I want to use most of the "advance" you lied about to buy things I didn't ask for? At least offer an option where users can bypass the purchase requirement for a fee, which makes money while also saving product. You'd think an entire team of developers would be smart enough to figure that out.

0 stars the worst cash advance app! Terrible experience. I was approved for $65 but could only transfer $19 to my bank because Gerald required me to spend $35 in their Cornerstore first. My order was canceled without any email or notice, I received no items, yet they still plan to draft about $54 from my account. Requiring people who need emergency cash to buy things they do not need just to access part of their advance feels unfair and misleading. They screw you when you're down!

You will be approved for a cash advance, the majority of which has to be spent on their store. The amount is not correct either. For example my order on cornerstore was 29 dollars and some change and somehow become over 44 once I was checked out. They will not give you the cash advance until you spend the money at their store, so in reality you wind up paying them much more than they "advanced" you. Tech support is slow to respond and no help at all. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!!!
