Best gift for a young parent

I’m in my late 20s and a big chunk of my friends started having kids. Personally, I’m a big advocate of investing and financial literacy and I hate gifting toys or clothes for my loved ones’ newborns, stuff that the baby will only use for a couple months.

I then heard about EarlyBird’s financial gifting and found the best option to gift to my friends and family. I feel like I’m contributing to the child’s future with a valuable and thoughtful gift.

The response I’ve gotten from my friends after receiving the investing gift have been pretty unique and amazing as well, I’m definitely the cool uncle now.

Fantastic!

A friend of mine recommended it to start a side investment for my nephew. I was a bit skeptical at the beginning but the information provided on the app + the customer service and common question helped me answer and set an account in less than 15 min. It’s easy to use and a great way to support a brighter future for the little ones.

Great for gifting with large families

I have a very large family and many friends who also have young kids. This app is a great way to give gifts that could actually help these kids in the future. I previously used to give cash but now I give to their Ugma accounts through early bird

I love EarlyBird!

There are many different platforms for gifting and investing but EarlyBird does a great job of making investing in the kids you love easy and personal. The app is intuitive and I love that I can add a memory or note to celebrate big (and small) life moments and milestones. I would highly recommend EarlyBird to all parents and anyone who has an important child in their life!

Excited to support my friends and family

Love the concept of this app, excited to support my friends and their kids in the US. I’m hoping that it will be available for Canadian families soon!

Simple interface and useful features

New parent here trying to navigate the throes of various savings/investment plans for our child. EarlyBird’s set up was simple, recurring investments go into the account every month, and we’re excited to bring crypto into the mix. All four grandparents are also set up to make recurring investments as well!!

Coinage/securities for the younglings.

I was terrible at gift giving until this app came out. A rattle for a baby? A race car for the tweener cousin? Over priced pieces of plastic and wood simply cannot compare to making a long term investment.

EarlyBird is easy to use, transparent, and fun.

Great App - glad I can help invest in my kids and friends kids future!

EarlyBird is such a great app, pretty easy to use and their customer service has been wonderful! Very glad there is a new way to help build up a portfolio for my kids and my friends kids. Thanks EarlyBird!

Just the thing I was looking for

I have been looking for something that early bird offers for years now for my children. I wanted to be able to invest in their future but not have it tied to a specific outcome such as college or retirement. So far the ease of this app has been amazing. I had to send one question to their customer service and I was immediately replied to and everything was handled within a matter of seconds. I also have learned more about crypto and investing in that for them as well as we approach more uses for cryptocurrency‘s. It has definitely helped me become more aware of what is available as well.

Bad app. Stay away!!

I am not even sure this is a legit app or company.
My employer have me gift cards for this app which I have been unable to accept or use.
App says my account is under review and will be approved within 24 hours. Its been saying that for more than 2 weeks.
There is no support available to resolve any issues.
I just want to warn everyone to stay away from this app and invest your money using a legit app like fidelity, Wealthfront, etrade, robinhood etc etc
