Our take
Albert is a subscription money app. Cash sits at Stride or Sutton; savings at Wells Fargo. FDIC is pass-through. The $20–40 plan is the catch. Ally Bank is the salary object on this list.
Albert Corporation is a Los Angeles fintech. The homepage says ‘Albert is not a bank.’ Believe it. Mastercard debit is issued by Stride Bank, N.A. Savings are at Wells Fargo, N.A. Plans auto-renew until you cancel in the app.

Albert holds a banking-style licence (FDIC (partners)). Still read the legal entity on the statement, not the app icon.
