We've built a brokerage within every Carry account, allowing you to invest in stocks or ETFs without incurring any AUM fees.

Not sure what to invest in? Our Robo accounts create a smart portfolio tailored to your age and risk tolerance.
Simply set up a recurring contribution, and we'll handle everything else. Plus, the cash in your bank account is FDIC insured and your brokerage accounts are safeguarded by SIPC, up to their respective limits.‡

Discover why our customers trust Carry
"I am in *heaven* with Carry. Payroll deduction to my Solo 401k and then automatically invested. You solved the use case that matters most. If i wasn’t running my own startup, I’d want to work with you all."
Cheryl Kellond, Carry Customer
"Major shoutout to my tax strategist from [Carry]. She crafted for me a 32-page tax and financial plan that outlined insurance, retirement, and how to achieve my LT goals."
Austin Hankwitz, Carry Customer
"Thanks so much. I reviewed my financial plan and it provided a lot of guidance and things to think about in terms of my long-term goals."
Sherrell Dorsey, Carry Customer
"It was one of the first platforms I’ve seen that specifically targets and helps solopreneurs, s-corp owners, self-employed, and gives them an all-in-one platform to easily manage retirement and tax saving strategies and accounts. I once tried to open a Solo 401k with [Other Provider], and it was a daunting task. Carry was a few clicks."
Nick Chester, Carry Customer
"I love Carry so much. It was so easy to set up my Solo 401k (which if you’ve ever tried to do that, it’s not always super simple) and inside I was able to invest in a ton of different ETF options"
Erin Confortini, Carry Customer
