Financial advisors who are part of the free "Advisor Match Service" are screened based on their years of experience, their SEC/FINRA registration and records, and their compensation criteria. All advisors are fee-only or fee-based.
Get StartedAll financial advisors have to meet WiserAdvisor's strict screening criteria to be part of the our vetted advisor network.
Our Advisor Match Service is free to consumers. Advisors do pay a fee, once they qualify, to be a part of our network.
We do not share your information with anyone other than the financial advisors you are matched with, based on your requirements.
You will only talk to pre-screened financial advisors whose profile matches your financial needs.
You are not obligated to hire any matched financial advisor. You should however, interview all the advisors to assess the best advisor that meets your requirements.
