Switch to Slash
Four reasons founders and finance teams leave Meow
Cashback that compounds
Meow's corporate cards are built around interchange and idle cash. Slash pays up to 2%+¹ on every eligible purchase, with no spend minimums and no compliance hoops. On a $1M annual spend that is $20K+ back to your treasury every year, liquidity you can redeploy into payroll, vendors, or business financing.
Hundreds of millions in FDIC² coverage
Meow holds your deposits at Cross River Bank and Grasshopper Bank, both Member FDIC depository institutions. Useful, but standard FDIC insurance caps at $250K per Member FDIC partner. Slash extends FDIC² coverage to hundreds of millions through Column N.A. and the IntraFi network. IntraFi sweeps balances across 800+ FDIC insured banks under one Member FDIC sponsor, so your business bank account benefits from the full IntraFi distribution. Same deposit insurance mechanic underneath, far more headroom for cash reserves than any single FDIC insured bank ceiling.
USDC, USDT, and crypto rails, native
USDC, USDT, USDSL all live on-platform, with on/off ramps and DeFi compatibility. Move funds between fiat and digital assets in seconds, pay international suppliers in cryptocurrency, and skip the FX bill. Meow has nothing comparable on the crypto or stablecoin side.
Global USD and a developer API
Receive and pay USD from 100+ countries³. Issue cards globally. Build on a developer API that handles card issuing, payments, and agentic AI agents that automate money movement on rules you set. Meow's surface area stops at US-based business banking services for startups.
Everything Meow does well, Slash also covers: FDIC insured business checking accounts, treasury management on US Treasury bills and commercial paper, ACH transfers, wire transfers, accounting integrations, and invoicing. The services for businesses stack runs deeper.

Understanding Meow Banking
Meow Technologies is a financial technology company based in New York, founded in 2021 by Brandon Arvanaghi and Bryce Crawford and backed by venture capital from Tiger Global and QED Investors. The official website is meowtechnologies.com. As a fintech company, Meow is not a chartered bank. Banking services run through Cross River Bank and Grasshopper Bank, both Member FDIC depository institutions.
The product is built primarily around treasury management for idle cash. Meow routes balances into US Treasury bills, commercial paper, and money market funds, then passes a yield back to the business after a spread. That focus on high yield is what most reviews of the platform call out: a clean way for a startup to earn yield on cash reserves instead of leaving liquidity in a low-rate savings account at a traditional bank, where interest rates rarely match what a high yield account at a fintech can generate.
Meow also offers corporate cards, ACH transfers, free wires, and free checks alongside its business checking account, plus light invoicing and basic accounting integrations. Those are the basics of business banking. The platform falls short on the rest: no native crypto, no DeFi rails for cryptocurrency or digital assets, no multi-entity dashboard for corporate groups, no unlimited virtual cards, and a deposit insurance ceiling capped at standard FDIC limits per Member FDIC partner.

Where Meow Bank falls short
- FDIC² coverage capped by partner limits at Cross River Bank and Grasshopper Bank, not extended via the IntraFi sweep
- No native crypto, no USDC, no DeFi rails for fiat-to-stablecoin liquidity
- No unlimited virtual cards with team-level spend controls or regulatory compliance gates
- US-only services, no global USD business bank account
- No developer API and no AI agents to automate treasury or business financing
Brex and Mercury target a similar audience. Slash is what teams adopt after Meow when their business outgrows yield-only cash management accounts and needs a real treasury, banking, and crypto stack on one platform.
