Introducing the world’s first gift card for stock! For the first time ever, you can buy $25, $50, and $100 Stockpile gift cards off the gift card rack at stores like OfficeMax, K-Mart, Safeway, and ToysRUs, or send e-gifts up to $1000 from our website or mobile app. You can also buy fractional shares of stock for yourself, and soon, you’ll be able to redeem rewards points for stock and much more! Stockpile’s mission is to democratize stock ownership. 86% of the population has never had a chance to own stock because it’s intimidating and expensive, but it doesn’t have to be that way! We’ve broken down the barriers to stock ownership by building our own fractional shares platform and partnering with Fortune 500 companies to bring the stock market to you, whether you’re grocery shopping or doing your mobile banking. We’re also partnering with nonprofits to promote financial literacy and empowerment so anyone around the world, of any age or income level, can invest for their future.

Tesorio is the world’s first and only cash flow performance platform. It empowers CFOs and finance teams to boost profits and cash flow performance by using artificial intelligence to better manage, predict, and collect cash. The platform unifies and analyzes an organization’s traditionally-siloed financial data from ERPs, billing systems, banks, and email to present views of all inbound and outbound cash flows, giving finance orgs a precise understanding of how these impact cash and liquidity. The platform also provides predictions of future cash flows which inform its smart workflow automation apps, such as a collections CRM, currency exposure management, and working capital manager. The Tesorio platform can adapt to the needs of any business and significantly improve its cash flow performance. By eliminating cumbersome spreadsheet-driven processes, it not only increases the speed and accuracy of financial team activities but also frees their time for more strategic efforts.
