Compound Canada — For Parents & Families

What It Is

Not an RESP. A retirement asset from birth.

It is not an RESP, a cheque at 18 or a first-home account. The account belongs to your child and stays preserved for retirement, giving it decades to compound.

Family and friends contribute through a simple link. Contributions are invited, not required.

How It Works

Simple for parents. Powerful for kids.

Activate the account

A parent or guardian completes enrolment and activates the account. Regulated partners complete the required identity checks.

Seeded by an employer or philanthropic partner

A $1,000 starting stake is funded by a founding employer or philanthropic partner, so a child's start does not depend on what the family can contribute.

Family and friends contribute

Grandparents, relatives and friends contribute through a shareable link or QR code.

Held by regulated partners

Regulated financial institutions hold and administer the account, and a separately selected asset manager manages the portfolio.

Financial literacy as a by-product

A visible balance, contribution history and investment growth give families a natural way to learn about saving, investing and compounding.

The Gift That Compounds

Every occasion. Every milestone.

Instead of another gift that gets outgrown or forgotten, family and friends contribute to something built to last.

Birthday

The gift that outlasts the cake

A birthday contribution becomes part of the child's account, invested for the long term.

Holidays

Something that lasts longer than December

A holiday contribution supports a child's future in a way that is personal, practical and lasting.

Milestones

First steps. First words. First stake.

From baby showers to first days of school, every milestone becomes a chance to add to the child's account.
