In their hands: Sharesies KiwiSaver Scheme stories
Real people. Real KiwiSaver stories.
Five Kiwi share what changed when they took their KiwiSaver accounts into their own hands with the Sharesies KiwiSaver Scheme. From set-and-forget to active self-select, and everything in between.
“It’s given me my future back”
Anne
Anne wasn’t someone who thought much about her KiwiSaver account—until it was somewhere she could actually see it. Now, it’s hers in every sense: easy to check in on, easy to understand, and finally something she feels connected to.
“I think I am definitely connected to my KiwiSaver more than I was before, purely because I have the visibility and everything’s right there.”
Starting from zero? Same.
Jacob
KiwiSaver, budgeting, being an adult—it’s a lot. Jacob’s story is for anyone who’s felt overwhelmed by where to even begin. For him, it started with a goal (a house, one day) and an app that made the first step feel doable. Now, he’s the one his mates ask about KiwiSaver.
“I was surprised how easy it was to switch over. It was just a flawless process.”
Options now. Options later.
Jessica
Jessica runs long distances, and she thinks about her finances the same way — steady progress, checked often, built for the long haul. She's a full self-select Sharesies KiwiSaver Scheme member, splitting her plan between a base fund and her own picks, and she's got something to say about the KiwiSaver gender gap.
"It's changed my confidence so much"
