Joseph N. Sanberg (born July 12, 1979) is an American entrepreneur. He is co-founder of Aspiration, Inc., initially an online banking and investing firm, and an early investor in meal delivery service Blue Apron. He is also the founder of CalEITC4Me, a California outreach program that helps low-income families claim the state and federal earned income tax credits.

In March 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice charged Sanberg with defrauding investors out of more than $145 million. In August 2025, he agreed to plead guilty to two counts of wire fraud. Prosecutors cited losses to investors of over $248 million. Investigation by additional authorities is ongoing.
