Ellevest was founded to help close the gender money gaps, but we welcome clients of all gender identities and expressions. Our digital investing platform uses gender-specific salary curves and longevity data to provide personalized recommendations and forecasts for your goals. Ellevest is only able to serve clients living in the contiguous US as well as in Alaska and Hawaii.
The financial services industry was built by men, for men — which means it was not built for women.
Case in point: 99% of investment management firms are owned by white men; 86% of financial advisors are men; more than 90% of professional stock traders are men; and the list goes on.
Financial advice is not gender-neutral. Women’s financial lives are different — we tend to get paid less, stop getting raises a decade earlier, live longer (which means we need to rely on our retirement accounts for longer), have more debt, do more unpaid labor, get fewer promotions … and so on.
Isn’t it time for a financial company built by women, for women?
Ellevest’s digital investing platform brings women’s real lives into the data model so that we can give you more tailored financial advice — advice that we believe can be more likely to help you hit your goals.

Ellevest may receive compensation from third party partners for referring you to such partners for non-investment consumer products or services. This marketing partnership gives Ellevest an incentive to refer you to these partners instead of businesses that are not partners of Ellevest. This conflict of interest affects the ability of Ellevest to provide you with unbiased, objective promotions about the products and services of its business partners. This could mean that the products and/or services of other businesses that do not compensate Ellevest may be more appropriate for you than the products and/or services of Ellevest’s business partners. However, you are not required to purchase the products and services that Ellevest promotes.

Ellevest reserves the right to refuse to award you the Promotional Offer if it determines, in its sole discretion, that the promotion was claimed under wrongful or fraudulent circumstances, that your participation is against the spirit of the program, that making payment would constitute a violation of your Ellevest Membership Terms and Conditions Agreement or applicable federal or state law, that the Promotional Offer is not applicable to the particular Ellevest membership service, or that incomplete or inaccurate information was provided. Ellevest reserves the right to end or modify any promotion at any time.

If you opt in to the Roundup Program for debit card purchases, each settled (i.e. fully completed) purchase transaction made with your Ellevest Debit Card will be rounded up to the nearest whole U.S. dollar. The amount rounded up will be transferred from your Ellevest Spend account to your Ellevest Save account (a "Transfer"). Foreign purchases are rounded up to the nearest whole dollar after the purchase is converted to U.S. dollars. ATM withdrawals and transactions in whole US dollars, e.g. $20.00, are excluded from the Ellevest roundup program. If, at the time of settlement of a purchase, your Ellevest Spend Account has insufficient available funds to cover the full amount of the Transfer, the Transfer will not be made. If a purchase is canceled or reversed for any reason (including disputes), the corresponding Transfer will not be reversed. You can opt out of the Ellevest roundup feature at any time.
Domestic ATM Transaction Fees will be reimbursed if a payroll direct deposit has been received within the prior 30 days of the ATM transaction settlement. International ATM withdrawal fee of $5 will apply.
Funds held in your Ellevest investment accounts are not FDIC insured, not guaranteed by Coastal, and may lose value. Ellevest does not guarantee investment performance.
