The joint in-app integration will enable Wealthify customers to view their investments within the Yolt money app, creating a new era of empowerment for consumers and enabling users to have one holistic overview of their money in one smart place. Yolt has become the first money app in the UK to show users’ live investments alongside other financial accounts including their bank account, credit card and savings accounts and even pensions.

Wealthify shares Yolt’s mission to empower users to take control of their finances. Both companies want to challenge the way people think about money and help users to make smarter financial decisions in a simple and straightforward way.

The announcement follows Yolt’s most recent news of reaching over 500,000 registered users as it furthers its vision to become the only money app users need. Building on the Open Banking ecosystem, Yolt wants to provide users with the ability to do more with their money across a variety of areas, including utilities & bills, financial products and leisure & experience. This latest announcement follows recent partnerships with pensions consolidation tool, PensionBee, home insurance platform, Homelyfe and life insurance adviser, Anorak.

Frank Jan Risseeuw, CEO, Yolt, comments: " We’re delighted to announce our integration with Wealthify, offering our users an exciting option to view their investments alongside their other financial accounts and working towards our vision of becoming the only money app you need. We are excited to welcome our first investment partner to the app, providing users with seamless access to an investment tool and look forward to working closely with Wealthify and our other partners to encourage a greater number of people to unthink money and empower them to do more with it.”

Michelle Pearce-Burke, Co-Founder & CIO, Wealthify comments: “App-based, Open Banking architecture is one of the most significant and exciting developments in retail banking in the past 10 years and promises to bring transformational changes to the way people manage their finances day to day over the next decade.
