From Anheuser-Busch:

Featuring an instant $2,500 “tax refund” and Alexis Ohanian as a personal ‘fun’-ancial advisor, Stella Mutual invites account holders to invest in each other in The Life Artois

New York, NY  – March 15, 2021 – As the April 15 filing deadline quickly approaches, the next 30 days are taxing…on your wallet, your time and even your relationships. Known for encouraging everyone to savor life with those who matter most, Stella Artois is introducing a mock financial services company that inspires people to focus on investing in time together – Stella Mutual, a deliciously refreshing, fictional, take on investing. 

“We’ve all heard mutual funds tell you to start investing your dollars today for your future,” said Lara Krug, VP of Marketing, Stella Artois. “Taking this novel concept beyond Wall Street, Stella Mutual invites people to invest in their relationships and time with one another to build a strong future through a diverse portfolio of experiences, memories and adventures in The Life Artois.”

Stella Mutual will make this coming Tax Day one you’ll never forget with out-of-this-world perks for lucky account holders, including:

• An Instant “Tax Refund”:  Worry a little less about taxes and spend more in investing in each other with a $2,500 cash prize – the value of the average tax refund. 

• A Funancial Advisor: Known for embodying the “Work / Life Artois Balance”,  Alexis Ohanian will give members exclusive access to his best investment tips for savoring life together.

• Refreshing Stock Options: All members will enjoy a fridge stocked with Stella Artois to savor with loved ones along with a year supply of Stella Artois.

• Unforgettable Bonds: Conducive to bonding, account holders will receive one of the following:

  • An investment vehicle – a tandem bicycle ready to transport you and your loved one to a picnic together.

  • Trade in their pie charts for pizza pie kits to host a pizza making party with ingredients from a classic New York pie institution, adding some quality time with those they cherish.

To showcase Stella Mutual’s complete initial public offering, the brand released a tongue-in-cheek film for prospective parties.

“Early in my career as an entrepreneur, I always poured myself into my work, but quickly learned the importance of investing in my personal wellbeing,” said Alexis Ohanian, Founder, Seven Seven Six. “I’m proud to partner with Stella Artois to inspire people to invest their valuable time and happiness into savoring life’s moments with those that matter most through Stella Mutual.”
