Nearly 30,000 employers and approximately 350,000 savers will transition to Vestwell's modern savings platform
NEW YORK, Feb. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Vestwell, the backbone of the modern savings economy, today announced it has completed its acquisition of Accrue 401k, the entity formed to support Guideline 401(k) plans that were not part of the Gusto acquisition.
Effective January 30, 2026, nearly 30,000 retirement plans representing approximately 350,000 savers will transition to Vestwell's platform, significantly expanding the company's national savings footprint and reinforcing its leadership in payroll-integrated retirement savings.
The transaction expands Vestwell's ability to deliver a broader range of workplace savings and investment offerings, including personalized investing, tax-advantage disability saving accounts, Emergency Savings Accounts (ESAs), student debt support, and goal-based investing. Plans supported by leading payroll providers such as Intuit QuickBooks, Rippling, Paylocity, Deel, Square, OnPay, BambooHR, and platforms powered by Check will continue operating within their existing payroll relationships on Vestwell's modern digital platform.
The acquisition comes at a time when employers are increasingly seeking simpler, more flexible retirement solutions as payroll ecosystems evolve and regulatory complexity continues to rise. Through Vestwell's integrated payroll technology, plan sponsors can reduce administrative burden while delivering a more streamlined experience for plan sponsors and savers alike.
