About us
Sidepocket Inc., DBA ‘Sidepocket Financial’, is a venture-backed deep-tech company and SEC-Registered Investment Advisor (‘RIA’). There's a 7.1 trillion retirement crisis, social security is estimated to run out by 2034, and financial literacy rates are a staggering low of 16%. In 2022, the outdated investing strategies available to the 99% saw their worst performance in 100 years. Meanwhile, digital creators have become the new trusted sources for financial information—48% of Americans cite social media as their source of financial education. But, creators weren't equipped with the tools, support, and strategies to absorb this important and newfound responsibility. Digital creators, akin to athletes, often experience uncertain career spans typically lasting less than a decade, inconsistent income opportunities from promotional deals, and lack access to reliable passive income streams that can outlast their careers. Sidepocket is the only Creator-first solution helping creators and their fans to achieve financial freedom safer and sooner. Sidepocket gives creators everything they need to build and secure their wealth for the long-term, empowering them to share their journey and newfound financial knowledge with their fans, unlocking new passive revenue streams that can accelerate their path to financial freedom. We believe that by empowering the modern financial educator (digital creators), Sidepocket can positively impact the financial literacy and wealth disparity crisis.
