Enrolment that makes sense
We don’t believe in asking plan members to choose investments. We ask what they’re saving for and how they feel about risk in simple, plain language. Then we build them a portfolio of exchange-traded funds that evolves as they get closer to their goal.
Take advantage of the industry’s most advanced customer experience technology and best-in-class educational materials, both proven to drive action among Canadian consumers.
A next-level plan member experience
Most members pay a management fee
below 1%, thanks to our portfolio of
exchange-traded funds.
Low fees
Easy enrolment
The member-friendly, fully digital process determines each plan member’s risk tolerance: Growth, Balanced or Conservative. No more default fund.
Once a member’s risk tolerance is determined, they can choose from three themes: Standard, Socially Responsible and Halal.
Diversity plus
Members enjoy an intuitively designed integration of their group and retail holdings that includes free tax-filing functionality. Our financial wellness materials are the best in Canada.

Professional advisors are available to members, to talk about their savings in terms they can understand.
Friction-free plan transfers
We make a great first impression. You can count on dedicated resources for plan members, administrators and your original carrier to ensure a smooth onboarding process. You’ll be informed of our progress every step of the way. And your people will have easy access to our professional advisors and customer-experience team.
Put data issues behind you by integrating your HR and payroll systems with ours. We accommodate Ceridian, ADP, Workday, BambooHR, Rippling and others. If you undertake a merger, acquisition or workforce change, we’ll commit dedicated resources to help.
Our average matching plan adoption rate is more than 80%. Even among non-matching plans, we’ve delivered a 35% rate. Canadians love saving with Wealthsimple. Our most recent customer satisfaction score is 90.

We administer Group Registered Retirement Savings Plans, Group Tax-Free Savings Accounts and Group Registered Education Savings Plans.
This combination allows plan sponsors to offer access to tax-efficient, employer-sponsored group savings regardless of what the plan member is saving for.
We work with clients of any employee size. The Wealthsimple platform is suitable for small-, medium- and large-size employers. Our services are robust and fully scalable.
Employees pay less than 1% for most Wealthsimple portfolios, compared to the industry average of anywhere from 1.5% to 2.5%. For a detailed breakdown of all portfolios and to see what rates your employee might pay, speak to us today.
There are no hidden fees for transfers, withdrawals or account changes. Better yet, we will cover the cost of any transfer fees charged to your employees when you move an existing plan to Wealthsimple.
Once you’ve decided on Wealthsimple as your partner for Group Savings Plan services, we send over an agreement via Docusign. Once that’s signed, your admin team will go through a comprehensive training session. Our teamwill walk you through the platform, teaching you how to set up, access and update employee information. As soon as you’re comfortable using the platform, we’ll invite the rest of your organization to join your Wealthsimple Workplace Savings Program.
If any of your employees are already Wealthsimple clients, they can connect
their new group plan to an existing account. For those new to Wealthsimple, they’ll be invited to answer a brief questionnaire (less than 10 minutes) to
best assess which portfolio matches their needs.
Based on each member’s enrolment questionnaire, they will have been placed into a portfolio type based on their risk tolerance level (Growth, Balanced or Conservative) and preferred theme (Standard, Socially Responsible or Halal). You can view the performance history of these portfolios below.
Very! We do this all the time.
To transfer an existing group plan, send a termination notice to your current provider (cc’ing w4w@wealthsimple.com). Our team will take it from there, coordinating with your provider to transfer your plans over to Wealthsimple. This process takes 4 to 6 weeks.
Wealthsimple offers a variety of resources to help educate your team on the fundamentals of investing — and we’re working hard to add more resources regularly. Just let us know if there’s something you’d like to see.
