“Our mission is to help motivate Americans to improve their long term financial health,” said SaveUp CEO and co-founder Priya Haji, in a statement. “We want saving to be fun and something to look forward by making personal finance a rewarding experience. We believe that knowledge is an essential part to financial success. We are excited to be a part of BigMarker’s personal finance interactive series with a great company like Betterment.”

Betterment provides investment accounts electronically linked to users’ checking accounts.
