San Francisco, CA – January 4, 2023–  SoFi, the all-in-one digital personal finance company, today announced SoFi Invest will offer a 2% match on all eligible IRA (individual retirement account) contributions through Tax Day (April 15, 2024)¹. This new offer doubles the previously announced 1% IRA match offered in late 2023, and empowers SoFi Invest members to make the most of their IRA contributions and accelerate their retirement savings during tax season. With the newly increased match available throughout tax season, SoFi is helping turn tax day anxiety and tax day excitement. 

SoFi members can earn the IRA match on all new ACH transfers into IRA accounts.

Reaching Investment & Retirement Goals

The SoFi Midyear Investor Report 2023 found that more than half of investors report feeling they haven’t invested enough at this point in their lives. Specifically, Gen X’ers feel the most underinvested, followed by Millennials and Gen Z. 

With investors feeling anxious around their investment totals so far and tax season traditionally being one of dread, SoFi Invest’s 2% IRA match helps to close that gap and offer SoFi members more investment choices as they kick off their 2024 financial plans.
