Most chequing accounts pay you nothing, charge you fees, and make you drive to a branch. We built something different.

@Wealthsimple Chequing pays 2.25% interest, charges $0 in monthly fees, reimburses ATM fees worldwide, and lets you deposit cash at any Canada Post location.

But we didn't stop there. We asked: what if a chequing account didn't just delight you - what if it could actually change your life?

That was the idea behind Monthly Millionaire. Every month, we give one Wealthsimple client $1 million. You earn entries by saving so even if you don't win, you're still building better financial habits.

This is what the future of banking looks like. We're just getting started!

In investing, every advantage counts. And Wealthsimple Presents is back to give you a few more.

Last time, we announced the end of banking as you knew it. This time, we’re geeking out hard on our new vision for trading and investing. And how you can retire way richer. That’s why it’s For Nerds Only — and you’re invited. 🧠

Canada doesn’t need to just keep up. We need to lead.

That’s why I’m all in on Simple Ventures. The mission is clear: fuel Canadian founders with the capital, talent, and network to build global companies right here at home.

Too many great entrepreneurs have left for other markets. But the truth is, Canada has everything it takes. Ambition. Grit. World-class talent.

This is about putting fire in the Canadian engine. Let’s go.
