FAQs
You’ll automatically become a Premium client when you reach $100,000 with Wealthsimple.
Similarly, you’ll automatically become a Generation client when you reach $500,000 with Wealthsimple.
Your status is determined by whichever is higher — the value of your net deposits, or the value of your entire Wealthsimple portfolio.
So whether you’re a long-time client whose portfolio value has gone up over time (nice), or a brand-new client transferring to us, we want you to have every opportunity to qualify for Premium or Generation.
Almost all your Wealthsimple accounts are included! TFSAs, RESPs, RRSPs, GRSPs, LIRAs, and non-registered accounts—they’re all included, whether they’re Managed investing accounts or Stocks & ETFs accounts. So are your Crypto, Save, and Cash accounts.
If both your net deposits and total assets with Wealthsimple fall and stay below the $100,000 or $500,000 minimum you will be subject to a change in status.
You’ll no longer be charged for USD accounts, but you’ll keep receiving the same great benefits. You’ll save $10 a month, and continue on your path to reaching Generation status.
