Digit Case Study

RETIREMENT SOLUTION

Digit is a personal financial management company that algorithmically analyzes its customers’ cash flow and helps them manage and save their money. The Digit app automatically withdraws extra cash to help customers save without even thinking about it. 

How Digit uses DriveWealth to power its retirement and investing products

The Problem:

Going beyond savings

The company wanted to expand its suite of offerings beyond a simple savings account. They created an automatic investment solution with a $5 monthly subscription fee. They believed that their customers would be more likely to stick with the program if they had the potential to earn a return on their savings—beyond the meager return a basic savings account may offer in today’s low interest rate environment. 


The Solution:

Micro-investing into retirement accounts

In 2020, Digit launched its investing and retirement options, directly embedded into its financial management and savings experience. The app matches customers with the right kind of retirement account for them, and automatically moves funds into investments after a 30-day period. 

‍

DriveWealth’s platform enabled Digit to seamlessly integrate retirement and investing products into their savings platform.


Results:

Customer growth and retention

Digit offers investment products as a core component of the fulsome personal finance membership. Within the first year of product launch, Digit enjoyed significantly higher customer retention rates for customers utilizing its investing products. 


As of March 2021, Digit onboarded 40,000 investment accounts.

Our suite of APIs allow our partners to build applications that connect to our brokerage platform. DriveWealth’s patent-pending Fracker® technology democratizes investing by enabling investors to purchase a fractional share of a stock, which is less than a single share. For example, if a stock is trading at $1,800 per share, the Fracker® has the ability to break this into multiple fractional shares out to 8 decimal places, so retail investors can buy what they can afford – if that’s $1 or $100. DriveWealth’s technology tracks the fractional ownership amounts, and ensures investors receive trading confirmations, statements, and tax reporting for only the fractional share of the investment. DriveWealth’s unique Fractional share program allows you to purchase securities in dollar amounts rather than share quantities. Please be advised that trading in fractional shares has unique risks and limitations that you should understand prior to participation in DriveWealth’s Fractional Share Program. Visit [legal.drivewealth.com] for full disclosures on fractional share trading. Loyalty rewards programs may encourage specific consumer habits.
