Welcome to the new and improved Raiz Kids!
Exciting news! Raiz Kids has been rebuilt from the ground up, with new features and more control for both parents and children.
Designed off the back of community feedback, Raiz Kids is here to help your children or grandchildren on their savings and investing journey.
You can control the access your Raiz Kids have
Raiz Kids can now have direct access to their own investment portfolio, with your permission. This can be an immersive way to help your kids understand how financial markets works and start developing savings and investing habits that they can take with them into their adult lives.
But don’t worry, you get to choose how much access your Raiz Kid has. If you give permission in the settings, your Raiz Kids can choose their own portfolio, or can make changes to recurring investments as an example. You can also choose to get notified any time a Raiz Kids account makes changes to these settings.
You can have multiple Raiz Kids accounts, each with different settings and permissions
Each Raiz Kids account can have different permission and controls, tailored to suit the age of the child and what control you would like to give. Each Raiz Kids account can have a different portfolio selection. You can have different one-off and recurring investments for each Raiz Kid, which could be great for different investment pocket money or does different chores around the house that are done 😊
How to setup a Raiz Kids account within your Raiz Invest account?
- Make sure your app is updated to the latest version. Then head to “Invest” on the home page of the Raiz App or website and scroll down to “Automatic Savings for your Child”
- Enter the personal information of your child, such as their name and D.O.B. (this may be prefilled if you already have been using Raiz Kids).
- Choose what level of control your child can have over the investments
- Choose if you would like to create a recurring investment, whether its daily, weekly, fortnightly or monthly
- Select from one of seven Raiz Portfolios to suit your risk tolerance, or build your own using Custom Portfolio
- Determine what notifications you would like to receive when your Raiz Kid makes any changes to their account.
Give your kids the gift of investing
We want to give you the chance to see firsthand and free of charge how these new features can help you invest for the next generation.

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.
