We are really excited about Raiz coming to Australia and we want to make sure everyone understands the unique opportunities with Raiz! Here at Raiz we have made it easier than ever to fund an investment account. We understand that investing is important, and just as no single investment will ever be suitable for everybody, there is no single, perfect way to fund an investment account.  This is why we built an entirely new micro-investing platform that enables multiple ways to invest.  There are four easy ways to get invested with Raiz:

Round-Ups
This is our most innovative feature, round-ups provide a whole new way to save and invest money. The goal of the round-up is to help people invest money every day, even if it’s just a small amount. We think the best way to accomplish this is by linking investing to something we all do every day – spending. Raiz makes it possible to link your spending accounts (EFTPOS, debit and credit cards etc.) and then round up the virtual change from every transaction. These round-ups can then be manually or automatically moved into your Raiz investment account.

Automatic Investments
Raiz also makes it easy to set up recurring deposits on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. It’s as simple as selecting the amount of money you wish to invest regularly, and then choosing a time period. This type of investing is great for setting and maintaining investment goals. Setting up automatic investment can be done in seconds through the app.

Lump Sums
In addition to some of the more unique ways of adding money to an account, our users can also invest any amount, at any time, with a simple lump sum investment. This makes it easy to add larger sums of money when they become available or when your investment goals change. It only takes seconds to deposit a lump sum into your investment account, and money is always available for withdrawal the same way: no fees, no penalties.

Found Money
This exciting functionality is truly exciting. Not only does Raiz make saving and investing money as easy as possible, we also help find money for you. Raiz can identify rewards programs, credits from other loyalty programs, and offers from third parties that can be converted into investments. What other investment program finds money for you?

With so many unique ways to fund an account, Raiz is creating an entirely new approach to saving and investing money.

So if you are as excited as we are, make sure you sign up at www.Raizinvest.com.au quickly and register your interest with only your email address and we will keep you update on our progress and register you for our Beta testing program commencing later this year.
