@saving4college Our press release: prnewswire.com/news-releases/…

We are pleased to announce our acquisition of Saving For College (@saving4college), the web’s top 529-related media property and education savings resource, alongside a $9.5 million Series A round of financing led by WndrCo.

Looking forward to leading our panel discussion tomorrow at the @CSF529 Annual Conference w/ @Vestwell, @Flywire, @getcandidly, & @backer529

@shamoons absolutely! please email support@backer.com to start the process.

@backer529 can I transfer my 529 plan from another service?

If you’re a North Carolina resident with an existing 529 account or have been meaning to set one up, visit NC 529’s website to get started. They’re offering $100 to the first 30 families that activate a Backer gifting page - and a chance to win $5,529! cfnc.org/save-for-colle…

Starting today, @MyNC529 participants can use Backer to save 4x more with gifts from family & friends - with modern payment methods (credit/debit, Apple Pay, Google Pay), beautiful gifting pages, recurring gifts, and birthday & holiday reminders. prweb.com/releases/backe…

Just in time for the holidays, we are excited to announce that @backer529 is now powering a 529 gifting experience for the State of North Carolina’s 160,000+ education savings accounts.

@ztownsend @geoffdudgeon @NikMilanovic We try!

@geoffdudgeon @NikMilanovic I use @backer529 and it's pretty good

what corners of finance have still been relatively untouched by fintech?

@rrobfarrington @realAJDavis @7OnYourSideNY @ABC7NY @Vanguard_Group Hi AJ, Robert said it well - they’re both great plans. We can help you get set up with Utah or you can connect an existing ScholarShare account. Happy to field any questions as you take a closer look; DMs are open or you can email support@backer.com or call 844-SAVE-529. Thanks!

@realAJDavis @backer529 @7OnYourSideNY @ABC7NY @Vanguard_Group Welcome to the CA club… so silly there are no benefits. Scholarshare is actually pretty solid, so is Utah. Backer supports both.

Saving for college is a great opportunity to impart some important financial lessons to your kids. Our CEO @jordanglee spoke with @BusinessInsider about how to do it with a #529. businessinsider.com/personal-finan…

Accessibility matters. Today, we’ve released our first Savings Scenarios report to demonstrate the ways modern Americans can save $15,000 in 18 years by teaming up and utilizing a 529, without anyone having to contribute more than $10 per month. backer.com/blog/2022-back…

@Dra_m_a Hi Anne-Marie, thanks for pointing that out and messaging us! Just replied to your DM.

It's an honor to be the keynote speaker at this year's #529Conference. I spoke with @JillMalandrino on @Nasdaq #TradeTalks to share how social savings + #fintech will unlock a massive new audience for 529 plans and help avert the next student debt crisis.

Fun podcast interview where our CEO @jordanglee discusses the power of social savings, democratizing 529s, the Backer Foundation, and other topics including ESG investing, remote work, financial literacy, and NFTs. open.spotify.com/episode/5tx0iE…

“I realized that the ones who had heard of this plan were pretty overwhelmed by it and weren’t sure how to use it”, Lee said, adding he was familiar with fintech products and wondering why there was not a simpler way to start a 529 account. cc' @BackerTeam sociable.co/technology/bac…

@jordanglee @iamjakestream Those are some lucky kids! And I bet you’re not even factoring in the tax break.

@iamjakestream 529 compliment or self-deprecating joke? Either way, this has the makings of a @BackerTeam testimonial…
