How does Betterment provide the best solutions for retirees?

1. Tell us your needs.

Everyone's situation is unique – tell us how long you need your retirement savings to last and how much you anticipate needing.

2. We give you advice.

We take the information you give us, recommend an allocation, and tell you a safe amount to withdraw from your nest egg. Portfolio performance and inflation are factored into our ongoing advice, but you have the final say.

3. Pay yourself.

Set up auto-withdrawals directly from Betterment to your checking account. It's like you never stopped receiving a paycheck.

What makes Betterment's retirement income better than other retirement income options?

Annuities can be secure, but lock up your cash and can charge high fees.

CDs and bond ladders have rock-bottom returns.
Peace of Mind
We go beyond conventional wisdom like the 4% Rule, providing a thoughtful solution for your money.
