Unique product offering taps into an agent’s complete earnings picture to provide more financial freedom, while positioning Real at the forefront of merging fintech with real estate
The Real Brokerage Inc. (NASDAQ: REAX), a technology platform reshaping real estate for agents, home buyers and sellers, today launched Real Wallet, a financial platform designed to provide agents with exceptional flexibility and control in managing their finances. Unveiled at RISE 2024, Real’s annual agent conference in Las Vegas, Real Wallet integrates earnings, revenue share and equity into one seamless platform.
Real Wallet enables agents to access their earnings faster by eliminating delays caused by legacy brokerage and banking systems, while offering real-time insights into their professional net worth.
“At Real we’re not just a real estate company—we are a technology platform designed to empower agents to grow their businesses,” said Tamir Poleg, Real’s Chairman and CEO. “Real Wallet is designed specifically for agents of the future, addressing a critical need by helping them better manage their finances and reinvest in their businesses. By merging fintech with real estate, we give agents the autonomy and flexibility needed to control their financial futures.”
At launch, Real Wallet will be available to select agents in the U.S. and Canada. U.S. agents can sign up for a business checking account with Thread Bank, Member FDIC, including a Real-branded debit card. Canadian agents will have access to a credit line based on their earnings history with Real. Future phases of Real Wallet aim to unify these features into a comprehensive financial solution for all business banking needs. Banking services in the U.S. are provided by Thread Bank, Member FDIC. The credit line available to Real agents in Canada will be provided directly by Real.
“We see AI as a transformative force driving the future of real estate,” said Pritesh Damani, Chief Technology Officer of Real. “Real Wallet represents a key step forward by integrating AI-powered insights with fintech tools, enabling agents to make more informed and efficient decisions. By harnessing the power of data and AI, we’ll soon provide agents with real-time analytics, personalized financial forecasting and tools for tax and retirement planning all designed to help them strategically grow their businesses and maximize their earnings potential.”
With Real Wallet, eligible agents step into a new era of financial autonomy, with the power to:
- Access earnings faster—eliminating delays from legacy brokerage and banking systems
- Gain real-time insights into their professional net worth
- Take full control of their business growth with enhanced financial freedom
Looking ahead, it is expected that Real Wallet users will have the opportunity to earn promotional rewards points redeemable toward reduced brokerage and transaction fees, further enhancing their financial flexibility. Expected integrations with Apple Pay and Google Pay will also help agents use Real Wallet in everyday transactions.
