We want to make your financial life a little easier by offering a simple<br \/>\nnew way to save and invest, but first let us tell you a bit about ourselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 9.0pt; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;\">Raiz is a group of<br \/>\nmathematicians, software engineers, behaviourists and financial professionals<br \/>\nwho all need to save and invest, and we believe this should be something that<br \/>\nhappens in the background of life and be as natural and without effort as<br \/>\npossible. So we built Raiz as much for ourselves as for you. The idea is to<br \/>\nharmonize with human nature. We link something we need to do, investing, with<br \/>\nsomething we do all the time, spending.\u00a0In this way saving and investing<br \/>\nhappens automatically, in small increments with ease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 9.0pt; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;\">As you may know there are<br \/>\nmillions of people with &#8211; \u201csaving more for their financial future\u201d &#8211; high on<br \/>\ntheir \u201cto-do\u201d list. Many are waiting to accumulate a lump sum before they<br \/>\nstart, and missing out on years of compounding, or they believe they can\u2019t<br \/>\nafford to take money out of their pay check, or can\u2019t quite muster the<br \/>\ndiscipline to invest often enough to make a difference. But by breaking the<br \/>\ninvestment process into little pieces and finding creative ways to funnel money<br \/>\ninto an investment account, more people can invest more often and worry less.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 9.0pt; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;\">Behind our app is a micro<br \/>\ninvesting engine that rounds up your credit and debit card purchases to the<br \/>\nnearest dollar, and steers these micro-monies into your own investment account<br \/>\nof diversified index funds. Over time your account builds while the financial<br \/>\nengine does all the investing, rebalancing and instantly communicating results<br \/>\nto the app on your smartphone.

The registration process does take<br \/>\na couple of minutes because you do have to link your bank account debit card or<br \/>\ncredit card, and set up your investment account parameters, but after that it<br \/>\njust happens.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 9.0pt; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;\">Investing small dollars may seem<br \/>\ninsignificant at first, but it is a start.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 9.0pt; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;\">Our commitment to our users is to<br \/>\nkeep thinking of ways to make the savings and investment process as fun,<br \/>\nsimple, natural and effective as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 9.0pt; line-height: normal;\"><b><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;\">Make sure you get on the list<br \/>\nat\u00a0<\/span><\/b><b><\/b><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.Raizinvest.com.au\">www.Raizinvest.com.au<\/a><\/b><b><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;\">!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Don\u2019t have the Raiz App?<\/h3>\n<p>Download it for free in the App store or the Webapp below:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3372\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\">\n<figure id=\"attachment_3372\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3372\" style=\"width: 351px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/raizinvest.com.au\/gettheapp\"><img class=\"wp-image-3372 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/raizinvest.com.au\/investors\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/download-app.png\" sizes=\"(max-width: 351px) 100vw, 351px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/raizinvest.com.au\/investors\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/download-app.png 351w, https:\/\/raizinvest.com.au\/investors\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/download-app-320x77.png 320w\" alt=\"download-raiz-app\" width=\"351\" height=\"84\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3372\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/raizinvest.com.au\/gettheapp\">Click to download the Raiz app<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/figure>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: normal !msorm;\"><strong>Important Information<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The information on this website is general advice only.
