As you like them

Invest in your favourite listed companies like a boss!

How Do You Get Your Share?

Easy. You think about the companies in your world that you use and love; find them right here and upgrade yourself to shareholder status in a matter of clicks. Owning shares means owning a small part of that business, and the amount you choose to invest grows along with it. Because of our rand/ dollar based investing set up, a unique feature that only we offer, this amount can be as little as R5, $10 or whatever amount you have available!

When you first sign up you’ll get some monopoly cash in your demo account to play with while you complete your profile. But that’s not going to make you any real money, so once you’ve had a test drive, get going in your live EasyEquities account – cheap as chips and easy as pie!

Why Shares are the Bid’ness
  • Own a piece of the companies you know and love
    When the company you have invested in grows and makes more profit, its value goes up. When you sell your share in the business, it’s worth more than what you paid for it. You make moolah!
  • Local economy
    Owning shares in homegrown companies means you are helping to boost and grow the local economy.
  • Dividends
    Some companies will give a share of their profits to its shareholders (that’s you!) which can be used to reinvest in the company or be taken as a cash pay-out. Money for nothing!
  • Easy in, easy out
    Most shares are really liquid which means you can buy and sell them easily (and we like easy!).

© 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.
