Recently launched, Cheese, a revolutionary digital banking and social cause platform, today announced its partnership with Dosh. As a fast-growing cash back platform, Dosh provides Cheese customers the opportunity to earn cash back on thousands of local and national brands.
Using either their physical or virtual debit cards, Cheese users can get up to 10% cash back at more than 10,000 retailers and restaurants, including many Asian-owned businesses. The partnership adds some of the most popular brands to Cheese’s existing roster, including Costco, Dunkin’, Adidas and Shake Shack.
"By offering our customers the opportunity to earn cash back on Dosh’s vast network of brands, we’re helping them to save money, which ties into our mission to empower people with financial freedom. Our partnership also allows customers to support Asian-owned businesses affected by the pandemic, as part of our focus as a social cause platform.” said Ken Lian, CEO and co-founder of Cheese.
Cheese primarily serves Asian-Americans and immigrants in the U.S. providing customers accessible, zero-fee, rewards-based banking while simultaneously giving them a seamless way to support Asian-American and immigrant-owned businesses, at-risk communities, and charitable organizations with each purchase.

Customers have the option of donating any amount of their rewards or their sign-up bonus to the fund.
"As a mission-driven business, it’s our goal to find ways to put money back in people’s wallets when they spend on everyday purchases," said Ryan Wuerch, CEO and founder of Dosh. "We are proud to be supporting Cheese customers by offering access to cash back from more than 10,000 brands and retailers.”
