Personalized portals offer customized gifting

Graduation season is upon us, and rather than checks or cash getting lost in the shuffle, gifts from relatives and family friends can be sent directly to the graduate’s my529 account through the my529 gift portal. The my529 Gift Program lets account owners send friends and family a unique link and gift code that make it easy for them to securely contribute funds to a beneficiary’s account.

The gifting profile can even be customized with a photo of the beneficiary and thoughtful message —truly endless possibilities for any age or occasion:

  • Student’s photo in collegiate colors to announce post-high school plans.
  • Student’s photo posing with an art or science project or performing at a concert or theatrical production with messaging about their favorite subjects or hobbies.
  • Student’s school photo or sport portrait with a little story describing their past year.
  • Senior class picture with messaging about graduation party details and included with the party invitations.

In addition to the gifting profile, you can also edit the wording of the email generated for sending your unique gifting code to suit any special occasion or gifting audience.
