Getting funds into your account

✅ App     ✅ Website     ❎ Capitec Widget

Once your account is set up and verified the next step to making your first investment is to fund your account.

There are a few ways that you can fund your different accounts. Take a look at the tabs below each of the different account types to see which way suits you best.

Note that some SID payments currently can take up to 48 hours for allocation. This delay sits with the respective bank unfortunately, but we are working hard to ensure we allocate those funds as soon as possible.

© EasyEquities. EasyEquities is a product of First World Trader (Pty) Ltd t/a EasyEquities which is an authorized Financial Services Provider (FSP number 22588). All trades on the EasyEquities platform are subject to the legal terms and conditions to which you agree to be bound. The EasyEquities platform enables users to invest in securities which includes whole shares and fractional share rights (FSRs). EasyEquities acts as an agent for the issue of whole shares, where the investor is the registered owner of those shares, entitled to dividends, participation in corporate actions and all the economic benefits and risks associated with share ownership.

In respect of FSRs, EasyEquities acts as principal to a contract for difference issued to the investor, where the investor will have a contractual claim against EasyEquities to the economic benefits and risks associated with share ownership (price movements and dividends) without having ownership rights in the underlying share. Fractional share rights (FSRs) which are issued through a contract for difference, are an over the counter derivative. Unlike whole shares, FSRs do not carry any voting rights. As the investor makes further investments in FSRs and ultimately ends up with a whole share, the contract for difference is closed out and ownership whole share is delivered to the investor.

The availability of any share on the EasyEquities platform is based on various factors but is not an indication of value and does not mean that any share is an appropriate investment for you.
