Just received the following bad news from Evolve Money via e-mail…
Evolve was a really terrific route for manufacturing spend and/or paying large bills such as mortgages when it launched, but over time it’s become less and less useful. They had a resurgence a while back when they opened up fee-free payments via Discover, but that route was closed a few weeks ago when they added Visa and Mastercard to their payment options and placed a 3% fee on all of them. At that point prepaid debit and gift cards were the only fee free option left, and now starting next week, those will no longer be available without a 3% fee.
As with everything in this hobby, the game changes, and when one door closes, another will soon open. Thanks for the memories, Evolve. We’ll miss you.
