“Earning a spot on the Inc. 5000 for the fourth year in a row reflects the incredible work our team is doing to power the future of savings for everyone, from entrepreneurs and restaurant workers to farmers, individuals living with disabilities, and those saving through government-led programs,” said Aaron Schumm, Founder and CEO of Vestwell. “We’re building the backbone of the modern savings economy: tech-driven, scalable solutions that meet people where they are and help them build financial security for life’s most important moments.”
Over the past year, Vestwell launched the industry’s most accessible multilingual savings platform, supporting 18 languages across saver, employer, and advisor experiences to eliminate language barriers and boost engagement among underserved workers. The company also introduced several new solutions, including Starter(k), a low-cost, automatic enrollment plan for first-time sponsors, and Emergency Savings Accounts (ESAs) to help employees build financial resilience.
As demand for modern savings infrastructure grows, Vestwell is scaling enterprise and national-reach programs while maintaining the flexibility required by today’s workforce. Recent partnerships include Group of Plans (GoP) with Wayne-Sanderson Farms for more than 2,000 family farmers, J.P. Morgan’s Everyday 401(k) and Solo(k), the Gateway 401(k) with Commonwealth for 2,200 affiliated advisors (now part of LPL Financial), John Hancock’s FutureStep™, and the Secure Income Account (SIA) with TIAA, which enables guaranteed lifetime income within workplace plans. Vestwell’s momentum has been recognized by Forbes America’s Best Startup Employers, CNBC World’s Top Fintech Companies, Crain’s Notable Leaders in Finance, and PLANSPONSOR’s top ranking in the 2025 Recordkeeping Survey.
“Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company’s tenacity and clarity of vision,” says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. “These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn’t just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy.”
Vestwell is continuing its rapid growth with further innovation and expansion across product development, engineering, sales, and marketing. The company’s momentum, reflected in its fourth consecutive appearance on the Inc. 5000, is creating new opportunities across the organization. Explore open roles at www.vestwell.com/careers.
