I’ve had the Acorns app as a complement to my usual Fidelity investment accounts since 2017. I use it to generate a little funny money – and most of it is completely free.
The website and app interface are easy to use and nice to look at. Over the past couple of years, I’ve grown to like what Acorns has to offer, and recommend it as a way to get started with investing. Even if you typically invest elsewhere, Acorns is still worth a download.

I wasn’t sure if I’d keep the Acorns app long-term, but at this point I’ll likely keep it forever
If you sign-up with my link, you’ll get a free $5 added to your account.
Here’s what I like about my experience with Acorns so far.
