Wealthtender Community Connect is the first influencer marketing platform created exclusively for the financial services industry offering financial advisors and wealth management firms opportunities to compliantly reach millions of Americans interested in improving their financial well-being.

Since its launch in 2019, Wealthtender has welcomed the owners of hundreds of blogs and podcasts into its growing community of financial professionals and educators. Collectively, these blogs and podcasts (the Wealthtender Influencer Network) reach millions of devoted readers and listeners each month looking for financial education and guidance in their areas of interest.

Financial advisors and wealth management firms participating in Wealthtender Community Connect gain unique opportunities to compliantly grow their business and attract their ideal clients. Blog and podcast owners enjoy new ways to monetize their traffic while introducing their community of fans and followers to financial professionals who may be a good fit.

Participating blog and podcast owners add an embeddable Community Connect Widget to their website on pages of their choosing. Within the borders of this widget, Wealthtender displays and manages all featured content in a format designed for regulatory compliance with SEC and FINRA requirements.

Blog and podcast owners determine the monthly cost for financial professionals to be featured within the Community Connect Widget on their platform with an option to establish eligibility criteria based on an advisor’s credentials, areas of specialization and other factors they believe are important for their audience.

Once a connection is established between an eligible financial advisor and a financial influencer, Wealthtender refreshes the Community Connect Widget to display information about the advisor to blog and podcast visitors who can click within the widget to learn more about the featured advisor.

Wealthtender Community Connect is a cost-effective influencer marketing platform with flexible pricing to accommodate any budget. Participating blog and podcast owners establish the number of monthly credits required for financial advisors to be featured on their platform. The cost of each credit is $5 with 85% of this revenue paid to participating blog and podcast owners quarterly, with the remaining 15% of revenue retained by Wealthtender to help offset the cost of administering the platform.

Blog and podcast owners can set the monthly cost as low as 1 credit and can adjust their pricing once per calendar quarter with 90 days advance notice.
