FinTech: Plenty, The Wealth Creation Tool For Couples, Lands $2.75M Pre-Seed Capital
Plenty aims to offer wealth-building opportunities that are easily accessible and tailored to the specific requirements of couples in dual relationships.
Plenty, a fintech platform, has raised $2.75 million in pre-seed capital to launch its innovative financial solution for couples. The platform aims to modernize wealth building by providing accessible opportunities for couples to discuss, manage, and invest their money together. Investors in this funding round include Phenomenal Ventures, Kevin Durant and Rich Kleiman’s 35V, former CEO of Wealthfront Adam Nash, ex-Stripe angels, and Inovia Capital.
Plenty was founded in 2022 by Emily Luk and Channing Allen, who recognized the challenges millennials face in building wealth due to factors such as student debt, rising home prices, and increasing interest rates. As many millennials are in dual-career relationships and approaching significant life milestones, Plenty aims to simplify and automate financial forecasting and investing processes for couples.

The platform offers a partner-oriented approach to finances, enabling couples to plan for life milestones and achieve financial freedom together through goals-based investing. The inspiration for Plenty came when Luk and Allen, themselves a millennial couple, struggled to find financial planning products that catered to their needs.
Plenty’s founders emphasize the importance of financial freedom for everyone, regardless of their background or wealth. They believe that financial planning should not be dependent on affordability or prior knowledge and aim to disrupt an industry that has not adequately adapted to the needs of the millennial generation.
Plenty offers an affordable membership that provides individuals and couples with exclusive access to their wealth-building platform. The platform features partner functionality, a cash management product with a higher-than-average savings APY, and an automated direct indexing strategy that previously required a minimum investment of $500,000.
Plenty’s launch represents a step toward empowering everyday couples to achieve financial security and pursue their dreams without the barriers imposed by traditional financial planning approaches.
