Frequently Asked Questions

Can anyone use this app?

Anyone over the age of 18 is permitted to use this application.

How many different digital wallets does SPARE accept?

SPARE strives to import as many digital wallets and currencies into its platform as possible. Currently, we support Apple Pay, Google Pay, Paypal, and uploads from your Visa or Mastercard.

Can I send promo funds to my bank?

We do not allow users to cash out promo funds to their bank account. The funds are designed to be used inside of the network with either other users or with our business partners. 

How do I send funds to my bank?

As long as you have a minimum balance of $50 you can send us a request via the customer care chat with:

The amount you want to withdraw, name on the bank account, routing number and account number. 

*We reserve the right to restrict bank transfers if they are solely for promotional funds that should be used within the network.

What is the "zero tolerance" policy?

Any behavior that indicates fraud, the illusion of fraud, illegal action, misuse of funds, failure to properly identify, gaming the promotional system, or any activity the company deems to be unsavory to the network of users and/or business partners, will result in account suspension and all ill-gotten funds will be removed.

My account was suspended - what should I do?

Feel free to reach out to our customer service. It could be a simple issue to fix (ID verification, missing contact info, etc.).

Once an account is suspended the company reserves the right to not allow that account to resume operation if it falls under the provisions of the "zero tolerance policy".

How does SPARE work for Merchants?

Select the amount of cash you would like to give out on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Our system will connect you with users that need cash through the month. Ensure that you have registered your account, submitted necessary documents, your account has been verified by one of our sales members, and you are free to operate.

How does SPARE pay the Merchants?

Funds can be deposited via ACH into their bank account or sent directly to their preferred Debit card.

What are the Fees for using SPARE as an ATM?

Fees range from free up to 5%.

Can SPARE be used on a POS?

Yes, we have several POS network partners such as: Clover, Muira, Pax, Dejavoo, and AMP pos.

Will the Customers and Merchants receive a receipt for the transaction?

Yes, each gets an email notification as well as access to the transaction history in their account via the app or web. 

Can Customers withdraw cash from any merchant that offers SPARE?

Most of SPAREs merchants offer "Cash-out", however, we have some that limit their services to "Cash-in", "Check Cashing", and "Loans". If you need help telling the difference - use the sort button in the app.

Is there a withdrawal limit on SPARE?

Yes, there are limits based on your security tier level.

Can a business or company pay their Workers or Employees using SPARE?

Yes. This will help them reduce time and cost for getting funds to their employees and contractors.

Why is SPAREs "zero tolerance" policy so strict?

Trust. We have worked hard to build our network of users and small businesses. We have seen many different forms of fraud that degrade the integrity of our network. In addition, we are a small company and if we were held responsible (as a company) for every transaction that ended in fraud in our network - we would not have a company after a very short period of time. 

Why does my check take so long to clear?

Your first check will not clear until we have received the funds from your bank, which is typically 24-72 hours after submission. It is not until you have processed your 4th check (and the previous 3 have cleared without issue) that you may be eligible for instant access on check deposits.

How do I get paid to pick up cash?

Once you have registered in the app, find all of the locations with the ($) on the app. Each time you request cash from these locations you will make an extra cash bonus; up to $50 per pick-up.

If you send money to someone who doesn't have an account yet, what happens?

If this happens, we will debit your account of the amount you are intending on sending. We will send them a text message letting them know that cash is available for them. Once they activate and verify their account, the money you sent will be available for them.

If there are any issues, you can contact customer service by:

Phone (call or text): (424) 744-0155

My check deposit was denied - what should I do now?

It is unfortunate that your check deposit was denied. This can happened for several reasons: 
- your account has not completed verification with SPARE
- your account is locked or flagged for suspicious activity
- the check you submitted does not match your account information
- the check information is invalid or can't be verified 
- the check was submitted in a different name other than the account holder
- the check in not readable 

In the event of any of the above you can: 
- resubmit your check for a second review
- contact customer service via email: [email protected]
- contact us via text or call at (424) 744-0155

I just went to a location and they have no idea who you are - what do I do?

From time to time we will have a location that was added into our system that has not yet completed verification or trained of the local staff. If you come across one of the locations, please contact us immediately and provide the location name, city, and state. We do our best to make sure that we maintain a safe, secure, and active merchant base and greatly appreciate the feedback if a location is not meeting its obligation to the network.

I came across a location that looks like it's someone's home or a non-commercial/business location.

If this happens DO NOT VISIT THIS LOCATION and contact out team immediately with the location name, city, and state. We want to maintain a safe and secure network and residential locations are not permitted in SPAREs network. From time to time we may miss a new location through verification and a residential location becomes active. Please help us by reporting these locations when you see them.

Why am I unable to send or request money?

There may be an issue with your account that has flagged the account for review. Please contact customer service via email, or call or text at (424) 744-0155.

I already have a SPARE account, what do I have to do?

Submit your government issued ID for verification, fund your SPARE wallet, and you are ready to go.
