How do I deposit
funds into my account?

You can deposit funds with your credit card, debit card or via bank transfer. Corporate account holders can only fund their account through bank transfer. We currently don’t accept PayPal funding.

Your Sharenet CFDs account details (such as your full name and address) must match your bank account details, as we do not accept funding from third parties.

Note for international Sharenet CFDs accounts

Your international account(s) must be funded in GBP, USD or EUR.

South African residents may transfer funds offshore within the following limits:

  • Single discretionary allowance: up to R1 000 000 per year
  • Foreign investment allowance: up to R10 000 000 per year

For international transfers, different BIC/SWIFT codes and IBAN numbers apply. These will appear during the deposit process based on your currency.
