Frequently asked Questions

What is Fruitful?

1. Expert advice and support from a dedicated Fruitful Guide, who is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ Professional that helps with all aspects of your finances.

2. A 5.00% APY High Yield Savings Account, more than 10x national average*

*Rates according to FDIC Monthly Rate Cap Information as of February 16, 2024.

Why is it good?

Thinking about money can be stressful and confusing. It’s all too common to have looming anxiety about your finances, feel overwhelmed, or be unsure about how to make progress toward your goals. Our all-encompassing membership makes managing your money easy, effective, and empowering. That means providing a real expert human to support and advise you at every turn. That means creating a blueprint with easy-to-implement steps. That means simpler, smarter ways to save and invest that support your personal goals. And that means doing it all at a transparent, more affordable cost.

Do I need to be a Fruitful Member to access all member benefits?

Yes, an active Fruitful Membership is required to work with a Fruitful Guide as well as open and maintain a high yield savings account and investment management account(s). Handling your finances should be simple and seamless, so our membership provides complementary services and tools that help members unlock real progress at a great value. Also, there are no additional fees or costs beyond your subscription.

How do I connect with my Guide?

We’ll set-up and work through 1-to-1 video sessions focused on organizing your finances, setting goals, building wealth, and making real progress. Once we’ve built a strong foundation, we’ll help you keep growing while adapting to whatever life throws your way by providing ongoing advice and support through regular progress check-ins, quick syncs, and anytime messaging. Feel supported at every stage of your journey, wherever it leads.

What credentials do Fruitful Guides have?

All Fruitful Guides are CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ Professionals, the highest level of credibility in personal finance. This means all Guides have met intensive education, training and ethical standards, are equipped to help Members with all aspects of their finances in a capable and trustworthy way, and are required to act as fiduciaries for Members. Guides are additionally registered as investment adviser representatives with Fruitful, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

What can Fruitful Guides help me with?

Any part of your life that involves money. Our Guides provide support and advice on each aspect of members' financial worlds while considering all aspects - from managing monthly finances and getting organized to saving and investing, from buying a home to negotiating compensation and choosing benefits, from strategizing around taxes to starting a family and combining finances, and from retirement to insurance and legacy planning.

Can I change my Fruitful Guide?

Yes, you can change your Fruitful Guide at any time, for any reason. We’re committed to your success, and we'll make sure we find the right Guide for you.

How much does Fruitful cost?

Our pricing is simple and transparent — $92 per month with a quarterly membership and discounts at longer durations. That’s less than half of the cost of traditional advisory firms.² Fruitful members also get access to unique benefits like 5.00% APY on savings and tailored investment portfolios with no management fees and no minimums. We never try to sell financial products to members and our pricing doesn’t change based on your financial profile or complexity. There are no setup or onboarding fees to become a member.

What if I’m not sure Fruitful is the right fit for me?

Good news - your Fruitful membership is risk-free for the first 30 days. We’re confident you’ll feel better and do better in no time. But if you decide it’s not a great a fit for you, you can cancel your membership in the first month and get a full refund—guaranteed.

As a member, how can I reach support?

Our hospitality team provides phone and email support Monday through Friday 8 AM – 6 PM ET and 8 AM – 9 PM ET respectively. The team responds to emails within 24 hours, but usually much quicker. Members can also schedule unlimited phone or video sessions as well as message anytime with their dedicated Fruitful Guide.
