What you need
Steps
Download the Etica Capital app from Google Play or the App Store, or open the Etica Capital website in your browser.
Tap Sign Up and enter your full name, email address and phone number. Set a strong password and confirm the verification code sent to you.
Complete your profile with your ID or passport number, KRA PIN, date of birth and a clear passport photo.
Add your M-Pesa number as the funding and withdrawal channel. It must be registered in your own name to match your ID.
Pick the Etica Money Market Fund from the product list and choose Open Account.
Read the product disclosure and fee details, tick the consent box, then submit your application.
Wait for approval, which usually takes one working day. You get an email or SMS once the account is active.
Deposit by choosing Deposit, entering the amount and confirming the M-Pesa prompt with your PIN.
To withdraw, enter the amount, choose M-Pesa as the destination and confirm. Money normally lands in one to three working days.
Tips and common mistakes
Check the minimum opening amount and the annual management fee in the app before you deposit.
Keep your M-Pesa name exactly matching your ID, or withdrawals can fail and need a support ticket.
Only invest money you will not need for the next few months, since money market fund returns change over time.
Save your account statement each month so you can track interest earned and declare it correctly.
Questions
Do I need a KRA PIN to open an Etica Money Market Fund account?
Yes. Registration asks for your KRA PIN along with your ID or passport number. Have both ready before you start the form.
How long does it take to withdraw money from Etica?
Most withdrawals are paid to M-Pesa within one to three working days after approval. Large amounts may take longer because the fund has to free up cash.
Can I open the account on the website instead of the app?
Yes. The website sign-up follows the same steps as the app. You still verify your details and link the same M-Pesa number.
