So, what exactly is Cleo Plus?

Cleo Plus is a subscription which gives you access to more financially useful features which in time, should help you build your credit history.

How the Plus subscription could help you avoid overdraft fees

Statistically speaking, if you overdraft once, it’ll probably happen two more times that month, and at most banks, that’s usually around $100 in fees which you could be avoiding.

Multiply that by 12 months, and that’s $1,200 your bank is cashing in on.

The Plus subscription costs $5.99 a month, which is $71.88 over the course of 12 months.

This means those of you who overdraft regularly could possibly save up to $1,128.12 per year by using Plus 💡

‍In fact, banks now charge an average of $35 in overdraft fees – a new record high 🤯, and with the way things are going, fees won’t be going down any time soon.

Check out Cleo’s overdraft fee checker tool to find out how much you’d be charged if you overdraft.

Cleo’s cash advance feature is one way to avoid extortionate overdraft fees, and the super scary world of payday loans.

You’re in control of choosing the repayment date, and it can be anywhere between 3 and 28 days. And then as if by magic, Cleo will take the payment automatically.

The Plus features explained

So, here’s a full run-down of what’s actually included.
‍

💵 CASH ADVANCE

When you’re low on funds and have a bill you need to pay, or just need to stay out of your overdraft, a cash advance can help you keep going until payday, so you can avoid getting charged an eye-watering average of $35 in bank fees.
‍

HOW DO I REQUEST A CASH ADVANCE?
‍

• After signing up for Plus, all you need to do is type “cash advance” or “spot me” to Cleo in the chat, then follow the prompts
• She’ll let you know if you qualify for the advance and how much for once she has done a check to make sure you’re in a position to repay on your chosen date. If for any reason you’re not eligible, you can get your $5.99 back if you cancel within 7 days of signing up ✨
• When you’ve chosen your cash advance amount, you can decide when you want to repay (typically between 3 to 14 days)
  ‍

The funds should reach your account within 4 days, however, if you need it within 24 hours, you can pay an express fee of $3.99.

And if you need help with requesting one, here's how to get a cash advance.
‍

🛍️ CASHBACK

Cleo’s cashback feature lets you choose where you’d like to get money back from (for example, the grocery stores you regularly visit), while offering rewards at a few standard merchants.

And when you make bigger purchases, you can get even more cashback (up to 7%), helping you splurge responsibly.

Just make sure you shop via the ‘Daily Cash’ page to get it.
‍

🌱 CREDIT COACHING

With the Plus subscription you’ll be able to regularly check your credit score, and you’ll get your full report directly in the app.

In your report, she’ll give you clear information explaining your score, and the steps you’ll need to take so you can manage your money in a way that can help improve your score.

She’s that clever, she’ll even pick up any spending habits which are bringing you and your credit score down 👀
‍

SO, HOW’S SHE GOING TO COACH ME?
‍

• She’ll guide you through key areas you need to work on
• And she’ll hit you up with a monthly report
  ‍

P.S. Cleo works with Equifax to track your credit score ✌️
‍

And if you ever feel like Plus isn’t for you, it’s super easy to cancel (but we’ll be sad to see you go). You’ll just need to type “cancel” into the chat. But if you have a cash advance to repay, you’ll just need to pay that off first 🙃
‍
‍

How safe is the Cleo app?

Super safe.

After you’ve connected your bank account, Cleo is only able to access your transaction history and data through an encrypted read-only mode.

And…
‍

✅ Cleo never stores or accesses your banking login details

✅ She uses world-class security practices

✅ She has a $250,000 security pledge

✅ She holds regular security audits and tests

‍

Is my personal data safe?

Cleo doesn’t sell your data, so all of your information is secure with us 🎉

What do our users think?

💙 “I love this app. They loan you money when you need it. They also help you keep your finances in check on top of that it’s a very entertaining app. 2 thumbs up.” – Brian O. Trustpilot review*
‍

💙 ”Awesome app to help see where your money goes!! My favourite feature is the savings option, where there’s tons of options to save. Like rounding up, “charging” yourself if you go somewhere often (mine is a charge of $5 everytime I go 7-11) etc.

And they even have the new credit card which I just got. Amazing app, easy to use, no annoying notifications, just simple money saving!” – Justine T. Google Play review*

So, is it worth it?

Yeah, we think so.

And with approximately 4 million users and this many positive reviews, we like to think our users do too.

If you’re someone who regularly goes into your overdraft, you’re more than likely going to benefit from the Cleo Plus subscription.

You’ll also be able to stay on top of your score by receiving regular updates, which in time, should help you get better rates for stuff like personal loans and mortgages 🚀
