Gateway Wealth Partners, LLC

Gateway Wealth Partners is a registered investment adviser that provides financial planning, wealth management, and retirement plan consulting to individuals (including high net worth clients), corporations and other business entities, and qualified employee benefit plans. Services include written financial plans, ongoing portfolio management, and ERISA 3(21)/3(38) plan services, with the option to engage Independent Managers and receive ad-hoc consultations.

The firm’s investment approach emphasizes strategic asset allocation using primarily low‑cost, diversified mutual funds and ETFs, supplemented by individual securities or Independent Managers when appropriate, and employs both fundamental and technical analysis. Notably, as of December 31, 2024 Gateway Wealth reported about $1.25 billion in regulatory AUM, of which approximately $762.2 million was managed on a non‑discretionary basis and $487.5 million on a discretionary basis, so a majority of assets are overseen in a non‑discretionary (advisory/recommendation) capacity rather than under full trading discretion.

Gateway Wealth’s operational and referral relationships are a distinguishing feature: the firm maintains an ongoing custodial and technology relationship with LPL (including receipt of administrative support and enterprise rebates related to LPL Model Wealth Portfolios), accepts fees from StoneCastle for participation in the FICA KEEP cash management program, and participates in referral programs such as Money Pickle; several supervised persons are also registered representatives and licensed insurance agents who may offer commission‑based services outside the advisory agreement. These affiliations and financing arrangements (including a disclosed loan from AssetMark Trust) are disclosed in the brochure and can create conflicts that the firm says it manages through its policies and client disclosures.
