Why Joint Accounts are Dead

June 26, 2023

Farewell to joint bank accounts

We spoke to so many couples, from freshly bloomed ones to those that have been at it for 8 years and one thing that struck us is that even couples in committed, long-term relationships are bidding farewell to joint bank accounts. At Cino, we believe in simplifying how couples and groups manage their finances. As we delve into the reasons behind this shift, we explore the drawbacks of traditional joint accounts. Along the way, we discuss how apps like Cino can offer a solution that empowers users to effortlessly pay together while nurturing their individual financial autonomy.

Financial Flexibility and Mobility


One prominent reason for the decline of joint accounts is the dynamic nature of modern relationships. Life is an adventure, and couples today are all about embracing it! Couples frequently travel, move around, or have individual financial commitments that make maintaining a joint bank account impractical. Who wants to be bound when you can explore new horizons? With Cino, your financial flexibility reaches new heights. Our app effortlessly links to your individual bank accounts, giving you the freedom to adjust payment splits as your adventures unfold.

Preserving Financial Privacy


We all love a little mystery, don't we? Maintaining financial privacy is another crucial aspect that makes joint accounts less appealing to many individuals. While transparency is valued in relationships, having separate bank accounts allows users to maintain a safety net for personal reasons. Maybe you're planning a surprise gift or just want to savor the thrill of financial independence. Cino respects these needs, providing a virtual shared card for effortless payment without sacrificing privacy.

Avoiding Credit Consequences


Ah, the dreaded credit score. It can make or break life's big moments, from buying a dream home to securing a shiny new ride. So, why risk it with a joint account? Picture this: your partner's love for retail therapy takes a toll on your credit score. Ouch! The debts or unfavorable financial decisions made by one party can negatively impact the others in the joint account. Such formal commitments often lack easy resolutions, potentially complicating financial matters. With Cino, users can sidestep these concerns by linking their individual accounts, reducing the risk of credit score complications.

We won't dwell on the gloomy details, but let's just say Cino has your back. Our virtual shared card linked to individual accounts gives you the power to seek safety and regain your independence.
