Treasury’s myRA program is designed to help American workers begin saving for their retirement, and will make available starter savings accounts for individuals without access or eligibility to an employer-sponsored retirement savings program. myRA accounts have no fees, will never go down in value, and can be opened with as little as a $5 contribution.

For businesses, making myRA available to employees is straight-forward. Treasury will handle account set-up and maintenance and will provide informational materials for business owners to share with their employees. There is no employer-match or contribution. In fact, all that interested employers have to do is to make Treasury-provided program materials available to their employees and set-up ongoing payroll direct deposits into myRA for interested employees. myRA is intended for employees who do not have access to an employer-sponsored plan or who are not eligible for their employer’s plan. myRA is not intended to replace current employer​-sponsored retirement plan offerings.
