Chase Bank Deplatforms Covfefe Coffee
Covfefe Coffee, founded in 2018, brands itself as “Coffee For Deplorables By Deplorables.”
The company, which says their goal is to “provide to proud Americans, access to world-class coffee without having to fund your political and cultural opponents,” was informed via email on Wednesday that they would no longer be able to use their payment processing service because payments were “for one or more of the activities prohibited by” their terms of service.
But that’s weird, because the terms of service are clear and Covfefe doesn’t violate any of them. Could it be that the company’s offense is using the term “Make America Great Again,” and that offends the bankers?
Whatever the reason, Chase stopped processing payments for the company and refuses to release the company’s funds.
The email continued:
“Unfortunately, you will no longer be able to use WePay Payments to accept additional payments. Any pending payments will be canceled and you won’t be able to withdraw funds at this time.”
