If Your App Crashes

If your app crashes immediately after you open it, there may be a problem with your local data. Uninstall the app and install it again. Uninstalling the app does not cancel your account. You will find all your information when you re-install it.

How Long Do Withdrawals Take?

Withdrawals typically take three to six business days to post in your account. There is a compulsory two-day settlement period. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) demands this period when trading with ETFs.

There may be a five-day hold if you withdraw money after a recent investment. The wait time is meant to ensure that fraudulent activities are not conducted in your account. Even though the wait can be frustrating, it helps keep your account safe.

If you have any trouble completing your transactions, you should contact the support team and ask for help.
