ACORNS GROW YOUR OAKS

Welcome back! So this time we have a similar but different story with a different Fintech company but worthy of consideration as a top investment platform. I'm a big advocate of applications that give consumers a nice balance of fun, use case, and information that will help them become more knowledgeable about personal finance as well as get their kids involved. With that being said, let's unveil this behemoth Fintech investment company called Acorns! Now Acorns offers many different services, programs, and features, but today I'm going to specifically key on one that I'm sure other consumers and investors will enjoy. Ok so I raved about Stash and their Stock Back Program with their debit card, well Acorns has a superb feature called Found Money, and with this feature you essentially find money through shopping online at some of your favorite stores/companies and you earn a percentage of your purchase into your investment account. So for instance, I like shopping at Nike and will buy shoes and other things for my customers, so Acorns created an extension that you can use on any internet browser where wherever you shop you can earn a certain amount of your money you spend will be invested into a standard ETF, I will attach screenshots of these type of transactions. Now you can also can use this feature through the app and just search for the company you're trying to shop at and then it will lead you to the weblink or website, but this feature Found Money or Earn Found Money really got put to use during the pandemic as shopping in person was halted, but this allowed Acorns investors to capitalize on investment opportunities. Shopping online made easy and by this you turn your consumer habits into asset accumulation.
