INVESTING SHOULD BE BORING
Watch your money go the distance
Over the long term, investing regularly in low-cost exchange-traded funds outperforms most active trading strategies. Sounds boring, but it works.
With Pearler, you can:
Set goals to stay on track
Save time with simple auto-investing
Be inspired by a community of investors
You have worked hard for your money, it's time to make your money work for you.
FOR INVESTORS, NOT TRADERS
How it works
Setup your portfolio
Choose what assets you want to invest in or use a template portfolio to get you started.
Autoinvest (optional)
Set-and-forget your investment strategy. Let time do all the heavy lifting using the power of compound interest.
Work towards your goals
Track your progress towards financial independence, a home deposit, retirement, or any other financial goal.
Connect with our community
Don't do the journey alone. Join a community of long-term investors to help you stay on track.
