  • App Store facts, privacy and accessibility labels, screenshots and icon: App Store listing and Apple's iTunes Lookup API, checked Oct 24, 2026.
  • Google Play rating and update date: Google Play listing, checked Oct 24, 2026.
  • Features: none verified on Marcus by Goldman Sachs's own website yet.
  • marcus.com answered every request from this session with its error page for visitors outside the US (static-non-us-ip) on 2026-10-24, so the products Marcus offers and its app features could not be read from an official Marcus or Goldman Sachs page. Every feature stays null until a US check can read marcus.com.
  • The app is live in the US App Store (developer Goldman Sachs, last updated 2026-10-06) and on Google Play, so it is kept in the set with its store data.
