“I earn a decent income. Am I making the most of it?”

You're managing everyday life. You'd like a clearer idea of what your money could do next.

See where you stand

The bills are paid, but you're not always sure what's left or whether you're getting ahead.

Explore your options

You're saving, paying off a mortgage or clearing a loan, and want to understand what different choices could change.

Give your future some direction

You have things you want to do. You'd like a plan that connects the money you earn today with the life you're working towards.

You don't need to have it all figured out. You need a place to start.

The knowledge is already there

You know more than you think

New Zealand research found 66% of women correctly answered three or more financial literacy questions, compared with 57% of men. Yet women still report feeling less confident about money.

Two-minute money quiz

What would you like your money to do next?

Build savings? Get ahead on your mortgage? Make your money work harder for your future?

Start with a few simple questions to explore what matters most to you and which Apex Money tools could help.

Take the two-minute money quiz

No bank details or exact numbers needed.

You work hard for your money. Is it working as hard for you?

Covering the bills is one part of the picture. Making room for savings, getting ahead on your mortgage and planning for later in life is another.

You might be wondering where your money could go further, or simply where to start.

Apex Money shows you how your everyday choices, savings, mortgage and KiwiSaver fit together, so you can try out options and give your money a clearer direction.

Make a plan for today. Build more possibilities for tomorrow.

Why we built Apex Money

Kobus Venter, Founder of Apex Money
[Three or four honest sentences from Kobus, in his own words, about why this matters to him.]
Kobus VenterFounder, Apex MoneyCo-owner and Principal Adviser, MyWealth
Maria Abercrombie, Co-founder of Apex Money
“My mission has always been to spread happiness, and money stress gets in the way of that more than almost anything. I've seen how a clear plan changes what people believe is possible for themselves. I joined Apex Money because every woman deserves to feel capable with her money, not anxious about it.”
Maria AbercrombieCo-founder
Katie Fitzpatrick, Co-founder of Apex Money
“I joined Apex Money because I believe everyone deserves the guidance and financial education to work towards their goals, whatever their starting point. Everyone's financial situation is different, but understanding it makes all the difference. I want to help close the gap between wanting something better and knowing how to get there.”
Katie FitzpatrickCo-founder

You might earn well but feel like your money is running you, or you might just be starting to get serious about it. Wherever you're starting from is fine.

A few questions before you start

Who is Apex Money for?

Our first launch is focused on women in New Zealand who want more direction with their money. You might be building savings, managing a mortgage, paying off debt or thinking further ahead. You don't need a particular income or a perfect financial situation to start, and anyone who wants a clearer plan for their money is welcome.

Do I need to connect my bank account?

No. You enter your own figures, so you can start building your plan without connecting your bank account.

What is the two-minute money quiz?

It's a short starting point to help you explore your priorities and discover which Apex Money tools could be useful to you. You can answer without looking up financial figures. It's separate from setting up your money plan, where you'll enter your own numbers.

What does “founding member” mean?

You're joining an early version of Apex Money. Your feedback will help shape its development, and your founding-member rate (NZ$7.99 a month or NZ$79.99 a year) continues for your first 12 months.

What's the difference between monthly and annual?

Monthly is NZ$7.99 a month. Annual is NZ$79.99, paid once a year, saving you NZ$15.89. Both keep your founding-member rate for your first 12 months.

Can I cancel?

Yes, anytime. On the monthly plan, you keep access until the end of the month you've paid for. On the annual plan, you keep access until the end of the year you've paid for. Please see our Terms of use for cancellation and refund details.

Is Apex Money financial advice?

No. Apex Money is a planning tool that helps you understand your own numbers. It provides general information, not personalised financial advice. If you'd like advice about your own circumstances, you can book an appointment with a MyWealth financial adviser.

Is a financial advice appointment included?

No. MyWealth appointments are booked separately. Visit the booking page to see the available services and pricing.

How is Apex Money connected to MyWealth?

Kobus Venter, who is building Apex Money, is a co-owner of MyWealth and works there as a financial adviser. Using Apex Money never commits you to advice. If you'd like it, you can book with MyWealth directly.

What happens to my information?

Your numbers are yours. We only collect what Apex Money needs to work, we never sell your information, and we store it securely . You can ask to see or correct your information at any time, and we handle it in line with the NZ Privacy Act 2020.
