What does “Add to Investable Cash” mean?

A lot of businesses are not publicly traded, and thus, you cannot own their stock. These include places such as your a hardware store chain with a few locations, your local farmer’s market, or your neighborhood family-owned pizza joint or coffee shop.

However, Grifin does have a feature - called "Add to Investable Cash" - which you can enable in your Settings, which allows you to automatically save $1 for yourself every time you spend with a local / small business. So, you still get to support your local community / businesses like you normally do, and you also get to save a little something for yourself every time you spend with them.

You can then let the $1s build up over time as a mini piggy bank and/or use the investable cash that to buy more stock in any of the publicly-traded companies that you already own on Grifin at anytime.

To turn this feature on:

1. Click Profile & Settings in the menu

2. Click Investment Settings

3. Check "Add to Investable Cash" to the ON position
