Built in Sri Lanka, For Sri Lankans
Your trusted partner for navigating Sri Lanka's financial system from IRD tax calculations to EPF planning and investment decisions.
Why WealthyIslander Exists
As a Sri Lankan software engineer who's deeply passionate about personal finance and investing, I noticed a massive gap in our financial ecosystem. While global tools like NerdWallet and Bankrate serve international audiences brilliantly, Sri Lankans struggled with basic questions:
- "How much tax will IRD deduct from my salary?"
- "Should I invest in EPF or ETF?"
- "Which unit trust fund is actually performing well?"
- "What's the import tax on my vehicle?"
- "How do I calculate tax on my foreign freelance income?"
The Inland Revenue Department's website is... let's be honest... not user-friendly. Unit trust performance data is scattered. Nobody was building financial tools that understood the Sri Lankan context.
So I built WealthyIslander. What started as a simple tax calculator has grown into Sri Lanka's most comprehensive financial planning platform, with 8 specialized Sri Lankan tools and counting.
I'm active on Reddit's r/srilanka community, answering personal finance questions and building tools based on real problems Sri Lankans face. This isn't a side project from a foreign company, this is built by someone who lives here, invests here, and understands the challenges because I face them too.
My mission: Make every Sri Lankan financially confident and informed.
