Auto-invest tutorial
The Automatic investment function allows investing a pre-determined investment amount in loan projects based on stipulated risk, geography, and term preferences. Investors can create their own automatic investment algorithm or use our offered strategies. Using Auto-invest ensures that you do not miss great opportunities as the most attractive projects and achieve a well diversified portfolio.
The first step is to access the Auto-invest area. You need to login into your profile and then in Invest menu choose Auto-invest.
We offer to choose one of the predefined strategies by Capitalia or create your own customized strategy.
In predefined strategies, you only need to enter the Total investment amount. In Custom strategy, you choose settings such as Countries, Term, interest rate, and can adjust the desired allocation to each Risk rate.
The essential part of any Auto-invest strategy is choosing the total investment amount (Investment amount field) that you want to achieve with this strategy. We recommend investing at least in 25 different projects, however, the more projects you invest in the more diversified your portfolio will be, meaning that any single project delay or loss will not have a significant impact on overall portfolio performance.
The final step is to Activate and Save your strategy as shown below:
Once you Activate and Save your strategy it will be running until you turn it off. Once the target is reached, Auto-invest will resume investing once any of the previous projects are repaid. Auto-invest works ONLY when your Wallet balance is sufficient for next investment.
Below we also share useful tips.
The smoothest automatic investing so far
The intended way of using Auto-invest is to invest in a large number of projects, maximizing diversification instead of picking projects individually. For this the Investment Wallet feature brings the true benefit of automated investments - you add funds once to your wallet and everything else is taken care of automatically. Just make sure to add enough funds to the wallet to last either for the total strategy amount or at least for 1-2 months' worth of investments. Reach out to us at support@capitalia.com and we can indicate this specific amount suggested for your individual strategy.
Why it is important to keep funds on the Investment Wallet
All investments, including auto-invest are possible only from the available wallet balance. This means you should keep the wallet balance sufficient at all times.
Reflection period
Once you activate Auto-invest for the first time, or make significant changes (for example changing from one predefined strategy to another) a 4-day reflection period will be in force. This means Auto-invest will wait for 4 days before it starts investing allowing you to have a cool-down period in case you change your mind.
