Acorns
Easy investing app for saving and growing your money automatically

Acorns is a financial wellness app that automates saving, investing, and banking through everyday habits like rounding up spare change. It offers diversified ETF portfolios, retirement accounts, checking, high-yield savings, and family finance tools for kids all in one place. Subscription tiers (Silver and Gold) unlock additional features like IRA matching, smart money splitting, and bonus investments from partner brands.
Users set up automatic contributions and round-ups from everyday purchases, which are invested into expert-built diversified ETF portfolios with no manual effort required.
