MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Dec. 20, 2022 — Tellus App, Inc. (“Tellus”), the proptech company behind the Tellus savings app, today launched Beneficiaries, a new section in the Tellus app where customers can add, edit and remove beneficiaries for their Tellus account.

A beneficiary is a person or organization that a customer names to receive some or all of their account proceeds if they pass away. Naming a beneficiary is a good habit whenever someone opens a financial account. Beneficiaries can be individuals or organizations, such as a trust or an estate. As life changes, customers can edit or remove beneficiaries from their account at any time.

What customers get:

  • Up to five beneficiaries. Customers can add up to five beneficiaries to their account.
  • People or organizations. A beneficiary can be an individual or an organization, such as a trust or an estate.
  • Simple details. For each beneficiary, customers enter a full name, date of birth, email address, address and relationship.
  • Easy changes. Customers can edit or delete a beneficiary whenever their plans change.
  • Clear explanations. An info page in the app explains what beneficiaries are and what happens to a customer’s funds.

How it works:

  • Go to Profile > Beneficiaries.
  • Tap the info icon to read how beneficiaries work at Tellus.
  • Add a beneficiary and enter their name, date of birth, email, address and relationship.
  • Return to Profile > Beneficiaries at any time to edit or remove a beneficiary.

Beneficiaries are available today in the Tellus app.

The Tellus app is available on the App Store and Google Play.
