Client News
On June 23, 2021, Stash, the financial platform revolutionizing how millions of Americans invest and save, announced the acquisition of PayGrade, a financial literacy platform helping students build healthy financial habits. The deal will deliver free financial education to millions of people and marks Stash’s first acquisition following record growth. PayGrade equips K-12 administrators and teachers with an immersive personal finance curriculum designed around simulated banking and investing.

Stash, which raised $125 million in February 2021, has more than 6 million customers and $3 billion in AUM.

The WilmerHale team advising Stash included Stephanie Evans, Adam Freiman and Evan Kirsch.
