BERKELEY, Calif., June 15, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- EvoShare, a microsavings oriented FinTech startup based in Berkeley, CA, and American Trust Retirement, a leading provider of best-in-class technology-enabled solutions for financial intermediaries and their clients, headquartered in Dubuque, IA, are announcing a partnership to offer a new source of retirement contributions to plan sponsors and participants — cash-back from everyday purchases. Through this partnership, plan sponsors that work with American Trust Retirement now have a new way to increase plan participation and contributions simply through employees' current spending habits.

American Trust Retirement has decades of experience using expert plan design, cost efficiency, service, and technology to create a fully customized retirement plan experience for plan sponsors.
"This partnership with American Trust Retirement paves the way to giving more plan sponsors an entirely new way to boost their employees' retirement savings," said Eugeny Prudchyenko, CEO of EvoShare. EvoShare is now able to expand access to its service as a unique retirement benefit as part of American Trust Retirement's offering.

We are thrilled to partner with EvoShare to help leverage consumer spending to drive more retirement savings for the average American worker."
