Wealthfront Announces Ambitious U.S. IPO Aiming to Raise Up to US$ 485 Million

Wealthfront, a leading automated digital wealth-management platform, today announced its intention to raise up to US$ 485 million in a U.S. initial public offering (IPO). The offering marks a major milestone for the fintech firm and positions it among the latest wave of technology-driven financial companies tapping public markets. 

Founded in 2008, Wealthfront offers a broad suite of services — including cash-management accounts, ETF and bond investing, low-cost loans, and AI-powered financial planning — targeting primarily younger, tech-savvy investors seeking automated solutions instead of traditional financial advisers. 

The company plans to list on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol “WLTH”, with underwriting led by major financial institutions including Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan and Citigroup. 

According to filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Wealthfront reported significant revenue growth, with its 2025 fiscal-year revenues rising to US$ 308.9 million, up from US$ 216.7 million the previous year — signaling improved financial performance ahead of the offering. 

“We believe our technology-first model and automated infrastructure enable us to deliver financial services at scale, reduce costs and pass value directly to our clients,” the company noted in its S-1 registration filing.

With over US$ 88 billion in assets under management and more than 1.3 million funded accounts as of mid-2025, Wealthfront emerges as a strong candidate to draw significant investor interest — especially among those attentive to fintech trends, low-cost investing, and automation in finance.
