What is Emergency Fund?

The Emergency Fund is a non-interest-bearing account held separate from your Acorns Checking and Invest accounts and is available at the $5 or $9 subscription tiers.

To get started, you’ll first need to set up an Acorns Checking account. You will then be able to set up the Emergency Fund by:

1. Tapping the 'Bank' icon on your bottom navigation menu
2. Tapping 'Emergency Fund' and follow the prompts. If you have not yet opened an Acorns Checking account or if you are not on the right subscription tier, you will be prompted to take the appropriate steps.
