Slash — Shared cards to split subscriptions, spend with friends
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.

Any plans for Sweden soon?

@jasondainter lots of plans to expand internationally! No definitive timeline yet, though
Is there any restriction on the countries supported (is this US-only)? Couldn't seem to spot a mention of this, but might have missed something
@iamsebj Hi Seb! Unfortunately we are US only right now. Looking to launch in European countries soon though. No specific timeline in mind but promise to let you know when we do :)
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.
@peer_rich YSplit seems cool, though I admittedly have not tried it out! Slash, more than an expense management app, is the first step we're taking in building the cable bundle of the streaming era. Yes, simpler cost-splitting comes first, but seamless password sharing, and eventually a one-stop bundle come later. Just getting started and lots of cool stuff coming in the near future :)
Congrats on the launch! Super hype, can't wait to stop using Splitwise for these things haha
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!
@sebastien_gagnon1 Hopefully soon! I'm a Canadian and would love to see the product used here in Canada as well!
@sebastien_gagnon1 @kevinbai0 I second this. I've been waiting for something similar to Privacy in Canada and this could be it!
Brilliant idea @victorcc , feels like a lot of people will find this product super helpful!
What do you think of companies like Netflix, who starting to make efforts to prevent people from sharing accounts? Do you think more and more companies will try to take steps to prevent people from sharing subscriptions?
@dulzorigoo That's a great point and one we think about a lot, Dul! Netflix definitely is at a stage where they can start to crack down on this sort of activity because they're gargantuan. Our hypothesis is that it's actually not in the interest of most "smaller" providers (Peacock, HBO, etc) to take such a negative view on account sharing, as it lets them target a group of people that otherwise wouldn't have purchased their service. Hope that clears things up and let me know what you think of the product when you try it out!
@sarrah Thanks Sarrah! Both Kevin and I are actually in college ourselves, so most definitely :)
@tektonik yes, hopefully! My co-founder Kevin is Canadian and super eager to use our product, so excited to get it out as soon as possible
@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 🙌
