Branch offers users the ability to access Greenhouse, ("Greenhouse"), which is a digital marketplace platform hosted and managed by MoneyLion by MoneyLion Technologies, Inc. (collectively, "MoneyLion"). Greenhouse allows workers to browse and apply for various financial products or services offered through MoneyLion by its partner organizations. MoneyLion displays personal loans in the marketplace with repayment terms from 12 months to 84 months and APR ranges from 5.99% to 35.99%. For example, if you receive a $10,000 loan with a 60-month term and a 16.21% APR, your required monthly payment would be $244.30 ($135.09 Principal + $109.21 Interest). Assuming all 60 payments are made on time, the total amount paid would be $14,657.87. All loan offers provided by MoneyLion require your application and approval by the lender. Depending on the lender, other fees may apply, such as origination fees or late payment fees. See lender’s terms and conditions for additional details. You may not qualify for the lowest rates or the highest offer amounts or may not qualify for a loan at all.

Branch: A Better Payday users say on Google Play
the app is very simple and easy to navigate.
Looks like the app is down yet again with no notice i.e no heads up. This is the second time in less than two weeks. I have no access to my funds and have to wait for 24hrs to access them again. It would be nice if they could send out an email or even a notification heads up text notifying us. But alas we are all in the dark on this with no access to our funds. Also it would be nice if they had a website to do your transactions and banking instead of just being limited to an app
This app would be better served if it showed a balance with the transactions like a card would with bank accounts in the app itself, I do get them in notifications when a withdrawal is made but not in the app itself when viewing transactions, would be a lot easier to keep up with spending, otherwise I have to take screenshots and refer back to the app to compare, other than that I guess the app works okay
a little confused on how the account works
They are saying they'll close my account, stopping me from getting payments if I choose to restart Jitsu. My emails to this notice get bounced, and I can't get anyone on the support line to fix this. I am lowering my review from two stars to one due to the terrible support, and no way to keep my account active.
