Calculate Your SavingsWe’re on a mission to expand access
One low fee for the family
We believe in universal access to college savings, so we let you choose your own fee.
Most families choose $5/month, but pricing starts at $1/month and all of your children are covered.
Your first month is free, so you have time to make sure CollegeBacker is right for your family.
Real-world impact
We’re taking on the student debt crisis and have already helped families avoid $30 million in loans.
When you use CollegeBacker, you’ll support our mission to make college a reality for more kids.
We use 1% of your fee to reach low-income families because every child deserves a college fund.
