FAQs
-
We believe investing is a powerful tool to build long term, sustainable wealth for Black and diverse audiences.
Stackwell is the only digital investment platform on the market that has specifically architected a solution to remove the social, emotional and cultural barriers to entry that have resulted in underinvestment in the Black community as well as other diverse communities.
We built our app with you in mind.
-
With Stackwell, you’re opening an account for investing, commonly known as a brokerage account (this is not a bank account).
Your Stackwell account helps you manage your money through automated portfolios that are recommended based on your risk profile and investment objectives, which are assessed during the account setup process.
The portfolios are comprised of a mix of low-cost equity and fixed income ETFs (exchange-traded funds).
We are a fiduciary, which means we act in your best interest.
-
No, we are happy to help you get started with your investing journey!
-
By law, Stackwell must verify a person’s identity before opening an investment account for them.
There are four key attributes that are commonly used to confirm a person's identity in the United States. These are:
Full name
Address
Date of birth
Social security number
Without verifying those four elements, we can't confirm your identity. Even if it wasn’t legally required, identity verification is a best practice that Stackwell would still perform because it protects you.
Our identity checks are meant to ensure someone trying to open an account “as you” really “is you”.
-
At Stackwell, we take privacy and security of our users very seriously. We don't share your personal information with anyone throughout and after the identity check process. We do not sell your information to third-party sellers.
-
The key to peace of mind is to focus on your goals and let the market work for you. Investing is like a watched pot (that never boils). Essentially, time will pass very slowly if it's the only thing you are thinking about.
Here's our suggested approach for periodic checkins:
Quarterly or Semi-Annually: Checking your Stackwell account every few months can be sufficient. This frequency allows you to review your portfolio performance without getting caught up in day-to-day market movements.
After Significant Life Changes: If there are major life events, like a change in income, retirement, marriage, or the birth of a child, consider revisiting your investment strategy and goals
Remember: While periodic check-ins are recommended, it is also important to stay informed about the economy and boost your investing knowledge.
We have resources for you within our app, our website, and The Stack Up monthly newsletter.
-
Although there is always some risk associated with investing, Stackwell makes sure your money is safe. Security and privacy are top priorities for us so we take our users' privacy and data very seriously.
-
Portfolio Details: Shows what kinds of assets (stocks, bonds, cash, etc.) your portfolio is made up of and their value. For every asset type, Stackwell will invest your money into an ETF (exchange trade fund) which is a collection of underlying assets.
For example, if your portfolio contains U.S. Stocks, the investment will be in an ETF that seeks to track the performance of the S&P 500 index, which is a basket of the largest publicly traded companies in the US.
-
We believe investing should be stress-free. Our mission is to help your money work for you by offering transparent, ready-to-go investment portfolios tailored to your goals.
Our portfolios are made up of best-in-class equity and fixed income exchange trade funds (ETFs), which are backed by proven investment strategy.
With Stackwell, you can relax by letting us handle the complexities of deciding stocks.
-
Performance Details: Shows you the value of your portfolio and how much money it has made over time.
This tab also shows what your portfolio is projected to earn over time based on your monthly contribution
-
Deposits usually take about 1-2 days for the cash to process. After that, it can take another 2-3 days for your investments to be fully set up.
-
Withdrawing funds usually takes 3-5 business days. This is because Stackwell has to sell some or all of your investments to get the cash.
Selling securities typically takes at least 2 business days. After we complete the withdrawal, your bank might take another 1-2 days to show the money in your account.
