Move to Shyft

Shyft vs. Online Share Trading cost breakdown
Shyft’s pricing is designed to offer value at every stage.
Why move from fixed to value based fee structure?
- Fairness: Fees scale with portfolio size, not a one-size-fits-all charge.
 - For migrating OST portfolios to Shyft, your safe custody fee will not exceed your current base platform fee structure, subject to be reviewed annually.
 - *Shyft does not charge a platform fee but an annual safe custody fee of 0.12% of your portfolio size (capped at R350), deducted monthly.
 
Why Safe Custody?
- Security & Value: Your investments are safeguarded under a regulated custody structure.
 - Transparent Pricing: Fees are now linked to the value of assets held, not a fixed platform charge.
