The true story

Once, to move up a waiting list for a finance app, people tapped a picture of a card. Not once. Up to a thousand times. Every day. If they stopped, they slipped backwards.

According to allegations in a 2020 administrative complaint filed by the Massachusetts Securities Division, the early Cash Management waitlist assigned each customer a numbered position and let them improve it by “tapping” a fake debit card in the app up to 1,000 times per day. Those who didn’t tap daily watched their position fall. When you hit the daily cap, the app allegedly told you:

“Come back tomorrow if you're feeling tappy.”

That’s it. That’s the whole story — and it’s true, and you can read it yourself in the official filing. Feeling Tappy is a small, independent homage to that strangely honest little moment of internet-finance history: the tap, the cap, the phrase.
