Aspiration Zero credit card is shutting the doors. -> R.I.P.

Your Aspiration Zero account is closing

 


Thank you for joining Aspiration’s mission to combat climate change by opening an Aspiration Zero credit card. As a member of the Aspiration community, you've been part of a movement using finance as a force of good.

While we’re proud of the impact achieved together, we’ve made the difficult decision to discontinue the Aspiration Zero credit card program, effective 30 days from today. This means that your Aspiration Zero account will be closed on May 3, 2023.

What you need to know:

  • Card Usage: You may continue to use your Aspiration Zero credit card until May 3, 2023. After that date, no new purchases will be accepted to your card.
  • Recurring Charges: Any recurring or automated charges will not be processed after May 3, 2023. Please update the payment source for any recurring charges prior to that date to avoid any missed payments.
  • Balance Repayment: You must continue making your minimum payment due each month on or before the payment due date to avoid late fees. However, you are not required to pay off your entire balance before May 3, 2023. You can continue to make payments through the Aspiration website or app, or by calling 877-559-0905.

For additional information on preparing for your account closure, please refer to our detailed FAQs, which include information about your remaining balance, payments, fees and rewards.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and are committed to supporting you through this transition. If you have any additional questions, please contact our customer service team at 800-683-8529 or [email protected].

Aspiration Zero Credit Card is DONE

Anyone got the email that Aspiration Zero will be closing their Credit Card after May 3, 2023?  You don't have to pay the full amount if you have a balance but you still need to continously pay every month. This sucks, got a 20k Credit Limit.  The card that Tony Stark AKA Iron Man supported is now closing.  Oh well.

Re: Aspiration Zero credit card is shutting the doors.

This thing was doomed from the start but it did serve a purpose, it put a price tag on what MyFicoer was willing to pay in the form of AF for utilization padding on a card that was never going to see outside of SD.

I agree ..twas good padding

As you know , most Fintech cards are doomed from the beginning,

It is only a matter of time.

 

ETA: At least the $300 SUB more than covered the AFSmiley Tongue
