moneyGPS-combination_mark-black

The accounting profession is consistently ranked as Australia’s most trusted adviser. IFPA members already sit at the centre of their clients’ financial lives, yet many clients now expect broader support across personal advice, superannuation, SMSFs and financial wellbeing.

moneyGPS has partnered with IFPA to help members confidently and compliantly expand their service offering, without the cost, complexity or risk of holding an AFSL.

This partnership enables IFPA members to become leaders in the delivery of affordable personal advice and financial wellness, while strengthening client relationships and creating new, recurring revenue streams.

The partnership also supports firms who have existing relationships with external providers or internal services which can be incorporate onto the moneyGPS platform.

Client needs have changed. Australians increasingly want:

  • Affordable, accessible advice – not just at tax time
  • Clear guidance on superannuation, retirement and SMSFs
  • Support that is digital, simple and easy to act on
