Common questions

Can I use KeepUp and Empower together?

Yes. KeepUp connects to your accounts read-only, so it works alongside Empower. Keep planning retirement in Empower and use KeepUp to see where your net worth ranks, including any accounts outside the US.

How can KeepUp be free?

For US users, KeepUp has a Marketplace of financial products matched to the portfolio you track. If you take one, the provider pays KeepUp a referral fee, and you never pay more. No provider learns anything about you unless you ask for an introduction. See the Advertiser Disclosure.

Is it safe to connect my accounts to KeepUp?

KeepUp can see your balances but can never move money: every connection is read-only, and there is no transfer, payment, or trading feature. You sign in to your bank on the bank's own page, so your login never reaches KeepUp. See the Security page.

Can I take my data with me if I leave?

Yes. You can download all of your data as JSON, or delete your account, at any time from your settings.
