Everyone and their dog seems to be talking about investing these days, and there’s a good reason for that.
Investing is the best way to not only protect your money from losing value (yup, that’s right) due to inflation, but also build wealth.
Even though investing is one of the best things you can do for your future, figuring out how to get started or where to invest can feel overwhelming. We are excited to partner with Qtrade Direct Investing™ to make investing your money even easier with their direct investing and guided portfolio options. Not to mention it can all be done from the comfort of your couch!
In this article, we’ll break down what new investment products we are offering, how they work, and how you can get started today!

Partnering with Qtrade Direct Investing™ means we can now offer two investing platforms for people looking for online investing options!
They offer a platform, Qtrade Direct Investing™, that allows you to manage your investments so that you have the confidence to buy and sell stocks, bonds, ETFs, and mutual funds – with low trading fees.
And they even offer a fully automated service, Qtrade Guided Portfolios™, for people who prefer a more guided hands-off approach, so you don’t have to make any investment decisions.
Regardless of your investment strategy– there’s an option for you with Qtrade.
Life is busy. You want to grow your savings, but in-person banking doesn’t always give you the value or convenience you want— that’s where digital investing fits in.
In simple terms investing is using money to purchase an asset that you expect to increase in value over a period of time.
So, digital investing is investing but using your computer to buy, sell, or trade stocks, bonds, etc., rather than going into a bank and investing in person.
Investing is a way for you to potentially build wealth.
By having your money sit in a savings account, not only do you lose out on the opportunity to put your money to work and build wealth– but you also usually lose money due to inflation.
This happens when the value of a dollar decreases over time. If your money isn’t growing at the same rate as inflation, you’re actually losing money. Yikes!
Online investing platforms provide Canadians with flexibility in investing for their future, and are a way to protect your hard-earned money.
Whether you’re an experienced investing veteran or looking to invest for the first time, Qtrade has an option suited for you with its direct investing and guided investing portfolios.
Qtrade Direct Investing™ is an online investing platform for those who prefer to manage their own investments. You can confidently buy & sell stocks, bonds, ETFs and mutual funds with low trading fees.
Qtrade provides you with the resources and tools to make better investment decisions:
Qtrade Guided Portfolios™ is an online investing platform for those who prefer investing with guidance. The service is fully automated, so you don’t need to manage or monitor your portfolio. A professionally managed portfolio is selected for you based on your goals.
How it works:
Qtrade Guided Portfolios provides:
Much like insurance, there are a lot of digital investment platforms out there. We can’t speak to what they offer, but we can speak to what Qtrade can offer, and why we are excited to partner with them to make investing easier than before.
We could sit here and talk your ear off about why Qtrade is a great way to invest your money, but we won’t. Instead, we’re just going to highlight a few reasons why we love their digital investing options (and why we think you will, too!).
By now, we can all agree that investing your money just makes sense. It protects you against inflation and helps you build wealth over time.
We are excited to partner with Qtrade and offer you award-winning portfolio analytics, comprehensive market research, professionally designed portfolios, and a wealth of investment tools and tutorials, all from the comfort of your home.
