Automatic Recurring Deposits<\/dt>

An automatic recurring deposit is when you schedule an amount of money to be automatically deposited from your credit\/debit card into your eToro account on a time specific basis. You decide the amount of money, the type of currency and schedule for the deposit using a credit card that has already been connected to your eToro account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Can I Start Recurring Deposits?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. After making a successful credit card deposit with the card connected to your eToro account, a banner on the \u201cdeposit confirmation screen\u201d will offer you the option to make a recurring deposit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

    Why can’t I deposit using a payment method under another person\u2019s name (3rd party payment)?<\/dt>
    \n

    eToro does not allow third-party payments. A third-party payment is a deposit made using a payment method that is not in the same name as the owner of the eToro account. As stated in our terms and conditions, the owner of the trading account should be the owner of the funds. Therefore, there is no option to make a deposit using someone else\u2019s payment method.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/dd><\/div>\n\n\n\n
