That means they are only sharing data from your Acorns debit card, not your external bank accounts. The Plaid part is separate from the debit card/Found Money Plus part. You also omitted a key quote: >when you activate your Acorns debit card, you will be asked to enroll in Found Money Plus, a card-linked offer program offered in partnership with Empyr. The Found Money Plus program is only for transactions on the Acorns debit card, and it is small bonuses for specific spending, for example, 10% cash back at Starbucks. It looks like a company called Empyr organizes these campaigns for the card link offers. The Acrons debit card is also optional. If you're getting cash back on a transaction you know the price is sharing your purchases, this concept isn't really new.
