Invested Better, LLC ("Invested Better") provides a matching service whereby users are connected with third-party financial advisors ("Advisors") who are registered and licensed as financial advisors in the United States and have elected to participate in our matching platform. Information provided by users through our online questionnaire facilitates the determination of suitable Advisor matches. Invested Better receives a set cost per lead compensation from Advisors in exchange for this referral service.

Please be advised that Invested Better does not evaluate the ongoing performance of any Advisor, nor does it participate in the management of user accounts or provide advice regarding specific investments.

All investing involves inherent risks, including the potential loss of principal. There is no guarantee that working with an advisor will result in positive returns. Potential downsides include the payment of fees, which can reduce overall returns. The existence of a fiduciary duty does not preclude the potential for conflicts of interest.
