Preview the tax impact before you rebalance
No surprises. No blind spots. Just a clear view into the expected tax impact–down to the position level and how it factors into each client’s capital gains allowance.
See what happens when you:
- Trigger an immediate portfolio rebalance
- Turn on/off rebalancing or change the drift threshold
- Initiate a portfolio migration
The preview screen also provides insights into wash sale warnings, short- and long-term gains and losses, post-trade weights, and more. We're making it easier to evaluate tax implications and make more informed decisions aligned with your clients’ goals.
Streamline fees with cash-first billing
Now when you choose cash-first billing, you can opt into a strategic fee structure that draws funds from Cash Reserve, then taxable investing accounts, and lastly, retirement accounts to better preserve tax-advantaged dollars.
With cash-first billing, you can:
- Improve cash flow management: Avoid liquidating investments to cover advisory fees, reducing potential tax implications.
- Create a seamless client experience: Ensure fee payments are handled smoothly from Cash Reserve balances, so clients can stay fully invested without interruption.
- Tailor your approach: Choose a fee structure that suits your needs, and lets you provide a more personalized approach to portfolio management.
Cash Reserve offered by Betterment LLC and requires a Betterment Securities brokerage account. Betterment is not a bank. FDIC insurance provided by Program Banks, subject to certain conditions. Learn more.
Adjust fees with flexible sharing
Now you can fully cover(or share) Betterment fees out of the overall fee you charge clients, giving you greater flexibility in how platform costs are managed. This option lets you absorb, share, or pass along fees based on your business model, creating a more transparent experience that aligns with your practice.

Access robust transaction reporting faster
With our refreshed Client Activity Page, you can see recent transactions, trade-level details, and allocation changes all in one place. With easier access to client data, you can respond to clients quicker, with clearer information.
Gain more flexibility in account setup
You now have greater control over how you plan and organize client accounts. Instead of being required to assign a goal, you can set up accounts with or without them—giving you the flexibility to structure accounts that align with your workflow.
Make solo 401(k)s simpler and more rewarding
Your self-employed clients may now be eligible for up to $1,500 in tax credits—$500 per year for three years—when they open a solo 401(k) with auto-enrollment.
As part of our fully digital solo 401(k) solution, auto-enrollment helps further maximize client savings by streamlining contribution setup and eliminating manual steps.
Accounts default to a 3% contribution rate to ensure eligibility, with the flexibility to adjust and integrate seamlessly with our tax-smart tools to maximize efficiency. You and your clients can also choose the funding approach that works best for you, lowering barriers to entry so clients can start saving sooner and stay on track.
And with upcoming Roth enhancements, including mega backdoor Roth conversions, your clients will have even more ways to boost retirement savings.
Unlock greater plan onboarding oversight
Plan advisors can now view detailed onboarding progress with estimated launch dates and key details for every plan:
- Onboarding tasks: Review what’s in progress, not ready, or complete, so you always know where each plan stands.
- Launch milestones: Stay on top of key dates like document signing, employee setup, and payroll approval to ensure a smooth plan launch.
- Plan details: Quickly access plan type, payroll provider, and your Betterment onboarding contact to manage every plan with confidence.
