Why do I need a wallet?

Modified on Fri, 4 Jul at 12:59 PM

A wallet is used as a connecting account between trading accounts and clients' external funds (held on bank accounts, e-wallets, cards, etc). 

 

There are several advantages to using a wallet, in terms of client funding: 

  • Withdrawals are only possible from a Wallet. Select “Transfer” to move funds from your Trading Account to your Wallet, then proceed to withdraw the money from your Wallet to an external payment system. 
  • Instant transfers within one operating company: If a margin call occurs, this feature can be especially helpful. Select “Transfer” to quickly top up your Trading Account. 
  • Funds deposited into a wallet are completely protected from any open positions held on the trading account (Compared to directly funding a trading account). 
  • Funds can be stored in various currencies (A currency can be added or deleted via the "Show more" button).
