Ratings and reviews

The app is a bit slow but over all usable. I find the investment options to be very standard and good for all who just want a safe place to put their money without doing much thinking, for the standard population this is a perfect place to start and keep. I do think for me it is a bit bloated with competitions and such but if you want a better product you need more people to join, so i understand. Over all its a decent and easy to use system with sound logic behind it.

I've always wanted a platform that's user friendly for saving and investing especially since I am starting out. Franc app was recommended to me and they didn't lie, it's easy to navigate and keep track of your investments. They also send reminders to keep one disciplined with frequent deposits.

App is not worth the issues it has.. It's more than a week, and the app is just stuck on the landing page. Not buttons or anything and no errors showing. It's just stuck. App deleted. Oh, and guess what? I just found out you can not unsubcribe to their website, so once you're in, you're in lol. Don't do it! It's been a months later and it's still the same problems. Useless! Please fix your app so I can take out my money

What's new

It's official! All Franc investors can now access the Franc offshore equity fund – the Sygnia Itrix S&P 500 ETF – through the Franc app.

All Franc investors need to do to get offshore exposure is choose an investment strategy with equity, or customise their strategy to include the offshore equity fund.

Only verified Franc account holders will be able to invest offshore. If you're not verified, we'll prompt you. Don't worry, like everything else on the Franc app, it's simple to do!
