All you have to do is answer a few simple questions about the #ShyftSquadcation by watching and reading about their adventures below:
As swiftly as they departed for Italy, the squad touched back down in Mzansi, bringing home fresh perspectives, renewed energy, and memories to last a lifetime. In part three of our Shyft travel diaries, the holiday may be over, but our squad’s bond with their ultimate global money app is only getting stronger! Join Lihle, Darren, Simone, Heinrich and Meghan as they navigate the world of global investments with Shyft.
Leftover forex? Limitless opportunities – Lihle’s story
Less than 48 hours after we got back home, Simone and Meghan were already dreaming of Rome. While I get it, I’m grateful to be back in my own bed, enjoying uTata’s cooking and the company of my kitties.
Maybe I over-budgeted, or perhaps my “urge to splurge” has finally mellowed out, but either way, I found myself with a bunch of extra euros and not quite sure what to do with them. So, I turned to the squad for advice.
Heinrich suggested buying German stocks on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange or converting them to dollars or pounds to explore the US or UK markets. I won’t lie – the latter is calling my name. Instead of splurging on that Burberry Goddess perfume I’ve been eyeing, I could simply hop onto Shyft, convert my euros to pounds and invest in Burberry shares with just a few taps. With over 1 000 top global stocks and ETFs to choose from, I might just be the next Wolf of Wall Street!
Watchlist, track, analyse – Darren’s story
Just took a deep dive into my Shyft watchlist with Hein and Lihle. It’s amazing how easy it is to track stocks and stay updated on market trends with Shyft. I’m feeling pretty bullish about the future. With access to global markets and a user-friendly platform, the sky’s the limit.
Since returning from Rome, Lihle, Hein, and I have picked up two new routines: endlessly planning our next travel adventure and obsessively tracking our Shyft watchlists.
We’re all hooked on this feature, which lets us track and analyse our top stocks in one place, sort of like creating a playlist of your favourite anthems on Spotify (coincidentally, one of the companies on my watchlist!). The dollar’s been fluctuating more than usual, and Heinrich and I are constantly “trading” thoughts on when to make our next move with one of the smaller tech companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
We also discovered we actually have a lot of similar interests in stocks — who knows, maybe we’ll all go in together on a share in a mega-cap tech company! In any case, watchlists make it easy to keep our game tight and strike when the price is just right.
P.S. Hey, that last line might just make it into my next song singing Shyft’s praises!
From Rome to home – Meghan’s story
My dad has never exactly been on the cutting edge of technology — he thinks quantum computing is when taxi drivers use their phones on the job!
When I told him about our Shyft adventures in Italy, he surprised me by saying he’s been using Shyft since it launched back in 2017. Turns out he read about it on BizNews ages ago.
After I picked up my jaw from the floor, he explained how Shyft has helped him diversify his investments with top global stocks from the US, London, and Frankfurt stock exchanges, all on one nifty app. Hein’s dad also showed him how to send money offshore to invest via Shyft’s preloaded partners (so many to choose from!).
Shoutout to the dads for showing us that Shyft is more than just a travel buddy; it’s seriously the ultimate app to take our financial dreams to global heights!
