What a disappointing product after such hype. Seems like a desperation pivot. I'd guess that the business partnerships didn't pan out and Apple supplants their proprietary technology with Apple's ecosystem. Given how crowded the rewards marketplace is, this seems like they're just throwing good money after bad.

Mmm, we haven't pivoted at all! Prepaid card with rewards program has been in the works since 2012 and was part of the pitch to investors. Rumors in the press really lead the public astray tho :(

"part of the pitch"? Does that mean there was some other product or feature that was more central to the pitch presented to investors?
