The lawsuit alleges that Walmart deposited drivers’ pay into accounts with payment platform Branch Messenger without the drivers’ consent.

The federal government is suing Walmart and the fintech company Branch Messenger, accusing the companies of forcing employees to use specific accounts to access their pay and of opening the accounts on the employees’ behalf.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau filed a complaint Monday against Walmart and Branch Messenger for allegedly forcing delivery drivers to use costly deposit accounts in order to get paid.
