Company mission
To make investing accessible for everyone.
Our take
The current saving and investment tools offered to Canadians are making finance complicated, with many opting not to invest their money as they believe it requires significant capital to begin with.
Flahmingo is a Canadian commission-free investment app, changing the way Canadians invest. The first of its kind in the country, Flahmingo uses an automated Pies and Slices model where users can buy a 'portion' of a share for as little as $1. It also offers educational resources to its users, aiming to empower the next generation of investors.
Founded in 2020, Flahmingo has already secured significant funding and is focused on expanding its team to become the catalyst for Canadians to improve their financial literacy.
