MoneyLion Referral Text Message Lawsuit for Washington Residents
Case Overview
The issue involves allegations that MoneyLion's 'refer a friend' program may have violated Washington state law by sending unsolicited promotional text messages through a user's friends and contacts. The core concern is that users may have received unwanted marketing messages without having requested or consented to them.
Attorneys are investigating whether MoneyLion used its referral system to distribute these unsolicited marketing texts, potentially violating Washington's Commercial Electronic Mail Act (CEMA). To qualify, the content suggests the recipient must be a Washington resident, have received the text from a friend or contact, and must not have requested or agreed to receive the promotional text, nor must they have ever created a MoneyLion account.
As of October 2026, attorneys are continuing their investigation into these claims. Individuals who believe they qualify are advised to complete a form on the page to assess their eligibility for pursuing compensation. The content notes that the lawsuit was moved from Washington state court to federal court in April 2026.
Who May Qualify
Washington residents who received an unsolicited promotional text message from a friend or contact inviting them to sign up for MoneyLion via a referral link, provided the recipient did not request or agree to receive the text, and has never created a MoneyLion account.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I qualify if I clicked the MoneyLion referral link but never signed up?
Yes, simply clicking the referral link does not automatically disqualify you. If you clicked the link but never actually registered for a MoneyLion account, you may still qualify for the text message lawsuit.
Do I need a copy of the MoneyLion referral text message?
Yes, attorneys require a copy of the original referral text or a screenshot to properly review your potential claim. You can search your text message history for 'MoneyLion' to help locate the message.
Is there a deadline to file a MoneyLion lawsuit?
Most legal claims are subject to statutes of limitations. The deadline for a potential MoneyLion lawsuit may depend on when you received the referral text and the specific laws applicable to your claim.
