THE FEE MATH

A negotiation saves you $50 a month. Who keeps it?

That is $600 a year. At 35% to 60% of the first 12 months of savings, the service keeps $210 to $360 of it. With Steward Plus you pay $15/month or $120/year flat, and the $600 is yours.

WHERE ROCKET MONEY FITS

A fair read of the other side.

Rocket Money is a good daily money app. If budgets, balance alerts, and net worth are what you want, with occasional concierge help, it is a reasonable pick. Steward is for handing the work itself to an agent: the cancellation completed at the merchant, the medical bill checked against the EOB, the dispute filed and followed until there is an answer.
