The recent platform enhancement features a user initiated Onboarding Wizard, designed to facilitate a user's entry into their financial journey without the preliminary steps of consultations or onboarding meetings. This streamlined process, suitable even for the non-tech-savvy, enables individuals to set financial goals, create a planning profile, and link financial accounts—all within a few minutes of registering for the service. The added “Planning To-Do List” clearly guides users through their next actions, helping to maintain momentum and ensuring users remain actively involved in fulfilling their financial goals.
Unparalleled Communication Tools
Central to this update is the amplified communication channels. The Unlimited Advisor Messaging feature allows for direct chat between clients and their advisor team, placing each user at the center of their financial plan. The updated Support tab further streamlines communication, making it easy for users to schedule meetings, check in on accounts, and submit requests for support.
360-Degree Financial Insights
The updated platform now offers Planning Cycle Tracking, allowing users to monitor the progress of their financial plans. The Secure Documents Portal provides a safe space for storing and sharing documents, while the newly added My Plan feature offers a panoramic view of a user's financial blueprint. With My Plan’s integrated investment account aggregation capability, users can now link various financial accounts to create a comprehensive view of their finances. After linking accounts, users can even simulate diverse financial situations to test their plan against real-world variables like market dips, medical emergencies, or increased inflation.
“We are committed to creating a world where everyone has access to expert level financial guidance," commented RetireUS CEO Michael Scarpati. “By making virtual financial planning intuitive and easy, especially for those not well-acquainted with technology, we are one step closer to making that vision a reality.”
