Thanks @mwseibel for the hunt! Slash co-founders, Victor and Kevin here! We started Slash as an answer to the ridiculous number of streaming, music, news, and other subscriptions services that have popped up, each offering their own silos of exclusive content Our goal is to make digital content more accessible to everyone, which benefits both consumers and businesses. The former via cost savings, and the latter by acquiring customers that otherwise wouldn’t have purchased their service (RIP Quibi!). Besides helping you split subscription costs without the hassle, Slash cards are also great for: 1. Sticking the finger to free trials! When prompted for a card on a free trial, simply pull up Slash, create a card with a limit of $1, and never worry about getting billed for a subscription later on. 2. Simplify your shared finances. Instead of adding shared expenses to spreadsheets and bill splitting apps, Slash allows you to pay for utilities, pizza nights, shared groceries, and everything in between with a shared card. We'd love to hear from you! Hit us up with any feedback, questions, or suggestions of how you would use a product like this. We care deeply about your experience and are always looking for ways to improve. Reach out to victor@joinslash.com and kevin@joinslash.com.

Nice start! What’s your chargeback policy?
Victor Daniel Cardenas
@eugenehp Hi Eugene! In the case where you can't get a merchant to reverse or refund an unwanted transaction, we resolve issues on a case by case basis up to 60 days after a transaction has posted. We request you provide as much information about the unwanted transaction (e.g: were you overcharged? do you not recognize it at all? have you already contacted the merchant?) and then work with our banking provider and the merchant to resolve your dispute. Hope that helps!

@victorcc how is this different if at all from Privacy?
Victor Daniel Cardenas
@tommyent Hey Tommy! Our emphasis is on letting users share expenses using these cards. Yes, we let you issue virtual cards, but the beauty is we let you use them to auto-split costs (i.e: if you use it to buy something that costs $10 and there are 2 owners on a card, we take $5 for one of the "co-owners" and $5 from one of the other "co-owners")

I was thinking of a similar idea. How about just buy the part you really want to watch? I mean, I don't even watch much but I am still paying for the subscription.
Victor Daniel Cardenas
@thisissubhendu Hello! That sounds very interesting, right now we're laser focused on just making cost-splitting as seamless as possible via "fractional ownership" of subscriptions. What exactly do you mean by just "buying the part you really want to watch"?
Rohan Ramanath
@victorcc You currently support equal cost-splitting right? I think @thisissubhendu is referring to usage based cost-splitting. For example if there are two users sharing a Spotify account and one streams 90 hours of music while the other streams 10 hours, they should split the cost 90:10
Subhendu
@victorcc @rohanramanath Yup! Exactly what I meant. Thank you for taking the time to explain it.

@thisissubhendu @rohanramanath Ah! Gotcha, that seems like a super interesting use case. One thing we have in the pipeline is letting users determine what percent of the spend of a given card each "co-owner" of a card is responsible for (i.e: I pay 40% of this Netflix card and my two other co-owners each pay 30%). Making this splitting be usage based sounds interesting, though! Appreciate the feedback.

@rohanramanath @victorcc of course! I have more crazy ideas around it. But we both get a goodie soon for this? 😛

When will it available for Europe? ✊🏿😎🔥
Victor Daniel Cardenas
@guillermo_perez hopefully soon! The only reason we're US only right now is because we depend on Plaid 100% for our bank connections 😅. No definitive date but promise you it's on our roadmap 🙌

Ole! ✊🏿😎🔥
