Stash Banking Customers Earn Over Five Million Stock-Back® Rewards

NEW YORK -- Stash, one of the fastest-growing banking and investing platforms in the U.S., today announced that its customers have earned over five million Stock-Back® Rewards on their everyday spending. The platform's first-of-its-kind rewards program gives its four million customers fractional shares of stocks and funds on their day-to-day spending.¹ Stash is adding thousands of new banking customers daily.²

"Stock-Back® Rewards is one of the most powerful catalysts we've seen when it comes to investing and saving. In fact, when a customer earns Stock-Back® Rewards in a stock or fund they were not previously invested in, nearly 30% go on to make an additional investment in it—learning about new companies and sectors along the way. It's about ingraining a savings mentality and changing people's mindsets. There is nothing more powerful than giving customers the opportunity to instantly invest in the stock market just by living their lives," said Brandon Krieg, CEO and Co-Founder of Stash.

As the Stock-Back® Rewards program continues to ramp up, Stash is giving its customers even more control, allowing them to pick their own Stock-Back® Rewards ETF when shopping at smaller companies without a specific stock match on Stash. In conjunction—and to further support customers’ savings goals—Stash is also launching a partnership with Booking.com, offering its customers up to 10% cash-back when they pay with the Stash debit card. The cash-back earned on Booking.com purchases will be deposited into customers’ Stash banking accounts and can be put towards any financial objective—from investing to retirement savings to paying bills, which can, in turn, reward customers with Stock-Back® Rewards.³

"Our new partnership with Booking.com is a testament to our core mission—helping everyone, regardless of background or income level, on their journey to financial freedom. We remain committed as ever to providing new tools and opportunities to our four million customers, so they can save and invest more of their hard-earned money," added Krieg.

Stash’s $1/month, flat-fee subscription plan⁴ gives customers access to a personal investment account with zero add-on commissions or trading fees⁵ and banking services⁶ with no overdraft fees⁷ as well as the ability to get paid two days early.⁸ All STASH plans include unlimited personalized advice and educational resources.
