Frequently asked questions Frequently
asked questions
What is Tellus? How does Tellus work?
Tellus is a savings, purchasing and investing app. We pay you an APY interest yield once you deposit funds into your Boost account. You earn the daily interest payouts and get to keep it. Whenever you want the money returned, simply submit a withdrawal and your money plus the earned interest can be transferred to your linked bank account.
How does Tellus afford to pay me such a high interest rate?
Tellus generates its revenues as a non-bank lender. We provide mortgages - loans secured by residential real estate. We use technology and proprietary data to choose opportunities so that we can minimize loss and fraud; this lets us pass the profits onto you in the form of highly competitive yields.
What is Tellus' security commitment?
We are absolutely serious about keeping the Tellus community a safe place for our users and partners. Tellus and our banking partners will report and prosecute any fraud incident. We timely compile detailed fraud incident reports and we diligently deliver critical prosecutorial data to federal and state law enforcement. We will report financial crimes to the financial crimes unit of district attorneys and law enforcement in all 50 states.
Is Tellus FDIC-insured?
No, we are not. FDIC stands for "Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation" and its primary function is to insure banks in the event of bank failures. This means that if a bank fails the insurance covers customer deposits in that bank up to $250,000 per customer. Tellus is not a bank. Tellus is not FDIC-insured. All user deposits held in cash are custodied by Chase Bank (aka JP Morgan Chase).
