Plant a tree with Raiz, for every new referral in June 🌱
Plant a Tree is back! For the entire month of June, for every person you refer that receives the $5 referral bonus, we will also plant one new tree on your behalf!
Thanks to our Raiz community, we have so far planted 9,799 trees in Western Australia on our users’ behalf!
For a rough rule of thumb, it is estimated 10-15 trees will sequester 1 tonne of carbon over 30 years.
The trees, which are native to the region, will be planted in the Yarra Yarra Biodiversity Corridor, located in Western Australia.
To do this we have partnered with Carbon Neutral, who by revegetating degraded farmlands, plan to eventually link small patches of remaining vegetation and 12 nature reserves to create a green corridor, a 200km long stretch of trees that will reconnect coastal and drier inland habitats.
So far, Carbon Neutral have planted over 440,000 trees, restoring more than 300ha of cleared land.
Trees bring many valuable benefits to the environment. The trees that you help plant:
- sequester carbon
- help reduce soil salinity
- help combat wind and water erosion
- enhance biodiversity
- restore habitat for native animals
If socially responsible investing is important to you, Raiz offers an Emerald portfolio, which focuses on companies that are socially responsible. To view, go to the Raiz App Home Screen or Side Menu > Invest > Portfolio. For information on Raiz fees, click here.
We also have our Offsetters community, which has grown to over 5,000 members since launching. It’s just another way that the Raiz community is giving forward.

Important Information
If you have read all or any part of our email, website, or communication then you need to know that this is factual information and general advice only. This means it does not consider any person’s particular financial objectives, financial situation, or financial needs. If you are an investor, you should consult a licensed adviser before acting on any information to fully understand the benefits and risk associated with the product. This is your call but that is what you should do.
You may be surprised to learn that RAIZ Invest Australia Limited (ABN 26 604 402 815) (Raiz), an authorised representative AFSL 434776 prepared this information.
We are not allowed, and have not prepared this information to offer financial product advice or a recommendation in relation to any investments or securities. If we did give you personal advice, which we did not, then the use of the Raiz App would be a lot more expensive than the current pricing – sorry but true. You therefore should not rely on this information to make investment decisions, because it was not about you for once, and unfortunately, we cannot advise you on who or what you can rely on – again sorry.
A Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) for Raiz Invest and/or Raiz Invest Super is available on the Raiz Invest website and App. A person must read and consider the PDS before deciding whether, or not, to acquire and/or continue to hold interests in the financial product. We know and ASIC research shows that you probably won’t, but we want you to, and we encourage you to read the PDS so you know exactly what the product does, its risks and costs. If you don’t read the PDS, it’s a bit like flying blind. Probably not a good idea.
The risks and fees for investing are fully set out in the PDS and include the risks that would ordinarily apply to investing. You should note, as illustrated by the global financial crisis of 2008, that sometimes not even professionals in the financial services sector understand the ordinary risks of investing – because by their nature many risks are unknown – but you still need to give it a go and try to understand the risks set out in the PDS.
Any returns shown or implied are not forecasts and are not reliable guides or predictors of future performance. Those of you who cannot afford financial advice may be considering ignoring this statement, but please don’t, it is so true.
Under no circumstance is the information to be used by, or presented to, a person for the purposes of deciding about investing in Raiz Invest or Raiz Invest Super.
This information may be based on assumptions or market conditions which change without notice and have not been independently verified. Basically, this says nothing stays the same for long in financial markets (or even in life for that matter) and we are sorry. We try, but we can’t promise that the information is accurate, or stays accurate.
Any opinions or information expressed are subject to change without notice; that’s just the way we roll.
