What exactly is the same? I just checked and they look different.

In addition to the app screenshots mentioned by a sibling, look at the marketing materials. Many of the headers are a translation of Wagestream's headers, and the branding is all focused around circles in much the same way (most obviously in the app screenshots, but they both re-use the image of the circular slider in multiple places on the page).

To top it off, Payflow is a (near) synonym for Wagestream.

Scroll down to the app screenshots on payflow.es and wagestream.com. The UI for withdrawing cash is pretty much identical.
Thanks, yes it looks like a 1:1 copy. Interestingly, the founders reply to other questions here but not to the copy accusation.
In fact, only just yesterday, someone asked me “how come Wagestream copied your UX/UI?” ;)
So... is the ;) an admission that you copied theirs? Does YC know about this?
