With Slash, issue joint cards that you and your friends “co-own.” Spend a fraction of what you otherwise would on subscriptions by seamlessly splitting costs with friends.
@phuctm97 You can use it as long as you have a valid personal SSN and address associated with it! Unfortunately, we're not currently verifying KYC for businesses (i.e. can't issue cards under the name of the business entity itself).

It's a really interesting and clever concept, I totally get the appeal. I wonder what the impact could be on users for linking financial identities by taking out a "co owned" credit card which is very likely to default on agreed payments, which in the UK would definitely affect your credit rating thus negatively affecting future actions like trying to buy a house or taking out other loans?
I get the problem with forgetting about free or low cost trials and think companies should be more transparent and proactive on this when offering them, but I've always found it easy to set a couple of calendar reminders to not get caught out by this. Maybe I'm in a massive minority of being organised around this? The use case for splitting services is brilliant though, and I see huge mileage in that.

Hey ?makers, nice work so far. The hardware-buyer community could find this useful. But how is this different from other virtual card platforms (like https://privacy.com)?

@joinslash@victorcc In my circle (300+ GPU resellers), we all use Privacy and haven't ran into too many problems.
I've spoken with Privacy's dev team since they are also targeting the reselling community. Regarding limits, those are mainly anti-fraud measures that their BaaS provider mandates. It's apparently very hard to get around, since bots+reselling IS fraudulent. It can also lead to your BaaS provider getting banned during drops.
Anti-fraud measures in e-commerce platforms are also very intricate (I've engineered in the field), so it'll be hard to not get banned. I'm curious how you plan to remove limits?
If you have a solid way around this that doesn't impose on TOS/the law, that could be cool.

This is cool! Reminds me a bit of Braid. You should target college students. They'd be all over this.
Hello hello! Having issues with Twilio/Sendgrid right now and can't send verification emails for some reason 😱. Scrambling to fix but shouldn't be long before everything is up and running again. Sorry for the inconvenience!!
Works amazing and congrats on the PH launch! Love the clean UI. Looking forward to using Slash for splitting Instacart Express, DashPass, and WSJ with roommates. Excited for what’s to come!
It doesnt say here but at the moment they have shut down all cards and gone back into beta - so I dont see why it's still listed here like it's ready to go. It's not, even their site says in CLOSED BETA.
