Download Stake App

Getting Started with Our Mobile Trading Platform

We designed the Stake app specifically for Australian investors who want convenient access to both ASX and US stock markets. Our mobile platform delivers the same powerful trading capabilities as our web interface, optimized for smartphones and tablets.

The Stake app transforms your mobile device into a complete trading workstation. You can monitor market movements, execute trades, manage your portfolio, and track performance metrics from anywhere in Australia.

Our development team built the app using native technologies for both iOS and Android platforms. This approach ensures optimal performance, faster loading times, and seamless integration with your device’s operating system.

We support fractional share trading through the mobile app, allowing you to invest in expensive US stocks with as little as $10. This feature makes premium stocks accessible to all Australian investors regardless of their budget size.

System Requirements and Compatibility

iOS Device Requirements

Our iOS app requires iOS 14.0 or later to function properly. We support iPhone models from iPhone 6s onwards, all iPad models released after 2015, and iPod touch devices running compatible iOS versions.

The app utilizes iOS-specific features including Face ID, Touch ID, and haptic feedback. These security and user experience enhancements work seamlessly with Apple’s ecosystem.

We recommend having at least 1GB of available storage space for optimal app performance. The initial download requires approximately 45MB, but additional space is needed for cached data and temporary files.

Android Compatibility

Android users need devices running Android 5.0 (Lollipop) or higher. We support most Android smartphones and tablets from major manufacturers including Samsung, Google, Huawei, and Oppo.

Our Android app leverages fingerprint authentication, pattern locks, and PIN security features. The app automatically adapts to different screen sizes and resolutions for consistent user experience.

The minimum RAM requirement is 2GB, though we recommend 3GB or more for smooth multitasking. Devices with lower specifications may experience slower loading times during market hours.

Step-by-Step Download Process

Installing from Apple App Store

Navigate to the Apple App Store on your iOS device and search for “Stake Easy Property Investing”. Alternatively, you can access the direct download link through our website’s mobile section.

Tap the “Get” button to begin the download process. The app will automatically install once the download completes. You may need to enter your Apple ID password or use Touch ID/Face ID for verification.

After installation, locate the Stake app icon on your home screen. The app icon features our distinctive green and white branding for easy identification.

Google Play Store Installation

Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device and search for “Stake”. Look for the official app published by Stake Technologies Pty Ltd to ensure you download the authentic version.

Tap “Install” to begin the download and installation process. The app requires permissions for SMS verification, camera access (for document uploads), and notification delivery.

Once installed, you’ll find the Stake app in your app drawer or on your home screen. The first launch may take slightly longer as the app initializes and downloads essential market data.

Account Setup and Verification

We streamline the account creation process directly within our mobile app. New users can complete registration, identity verification, and initial funding without switching to a desktop computer.

The mobile registration process requires your Australian residential address, government-issued ID, and contact information. We use digital verification systems to confirm your identity quickly and securely.

Our app supports document scanning using your device’s camera. Simply photograph your driver’s license or passport, and our system will extract the necessary information automatically.

Here’s what you need to complete mobile registration:

• Valid Australian residential address
• Government-issued photo ID (driver’s license or passport)
• Australian bank account for funding verification
• Mobile phone number for SMS authentication
• Email address for account communications

For US citizens residing in Australia, additional documentation including your Social Security Number is required. The app will prompt you for these details during the registration process.

Security Features and Authentication

Multi-Factor Authentication Setup

We implement multiple security layers to protect your trading account and personal information. The app supports SMS verification, authenticator apps, and biometric authentication methods.

During initial setup, you’ll configure SMS verification for login attempts and withdrawal requests. We send verification codes to your registered Australian mobile number for additional security.

The app integrates with third-party authenticator applications including Google Authenticator and Authy. These apps generate time-based codes that expire every 30 seconds for enhanced protection.

Biometric Security Options

iOS users can enable Face ID or Touch ID for quick app access. These biometric methods provide convenient security without compromising protection levels.

Android users benefit from fingerprint authentication, face unlock, and pattern recognition depending on their device capabilities. The app automatically detects available biometric options during setup.

We also offer traditional PIN-based security for devices without biometric capabilities. You can set a 4-6 digit PIN that’s required each time you open the app or attempt sensitive actions.

Trading Interface and Navigation

Market Access and Watchlists

Our mobile interface provides access to over 2,500 ASX stocks and 9,500+ US securities. You can switch between markets using the navigation tabs at the bottom of the screen.

The watchlist feature allows you to track favorite stocks, ETFs, and managed funds. Create multiple watchlists for different investment strategies or market sectors.

Real-time price updates appear automatically without manual refresh. We display price changes, percentage movements, and volume data in easy-to-read formats optimized for mobile screens.

Order Placement and Management

Place market orders, limit orders, and stop-loss orders directly through the mobile interface. The order entry screen includes real-time quotes and estimated execution prices.

Our fractional share feature works seamlessly on mobile devices. Enter the dollar amount you want to invest, and we’ll calculate the corresponding share quantity automatically.

You can modify or cancel pending orders through the “Orders” section. Active positions appear in your portfolio with current values, unrealized gains/losses, and performance metrics.

Funding and Currency Management

We support instant funding through Apple Pay and Google Pay for immediate trading access. These payment methods eliminate waiting periods associated with traditional bank transfers.

The app handles currency conversion between AUD and USD automatically. You can maintain separate cash balances in both currencies or enable automatic conversion for trades.

Bank transfer funding typically processes within 1-2 business days. We accept transfers from all major Australian banks including Commonwealth Bank, ANZ, Westpac, and NAB.

Available funding methods include:

• Apple Pay (instant, iOS only)
• Google Pay (instant, Android only)
• Bank transfer (1-2 business days)
• BPAY (same day processing)
• PayID (instant transfers)

Currency conversion occurs at interbank rates with transparent fee structures. We display conversion rates and applicable fees before you confirm any transactions.

Advanced Features and Customization

Interface Personalization

The app offers light and dark theme modes that can sync with your device’s system preferences. Dark mode reduces eye strain during extended trading sessions and conserves battery life on OLED displays.

We include accessibility features for users with color vision deficiencies. The accessibility mode adjusts color schemes and contrast ratios for improved readability.

Haptic feedback provides tactile confirmation for trade executions and important notifications. You can adjust vibration intensity or disable haptic feedback entirely through the settings menu.

Extended Trading Hours

Our mobile platform supports extended hours trading for US markets. You can place orders before market open (4:00 AM – 9:30 AM EST) and after market close (4:00 PM – 8:00 PM EST).

Extended hours trading allows you to react to earnings announcements, news events, and international market movements outside regular trading sessions.

The app clearly indicates when you’re placing extended hours orders and displays relevant warnings about reduced liquidity and wider bid-ask spreads.

Customer Support and Resources

We provide comprehensive customer support through email channels directly accessible within the mobile app. The support section includes frequently asked questions, troubleshooting guides, and contact forms.

Our automated tax reporting system generates necessary documents for Australian tax obligations. The app stores all transaction history and provides downloadable statements for accounting purposes.

We handle US tax compliance automatically through W8-BEN form processing. Australian residents investing in US securities don’t need to manually complete complex tax documentation.

The app includes educational resources covering investment basics, market analysis, and platform tutorials. These materials help new investors understand trading concepts and platform functionality.

Response times for support inquiries typically range from 4-24 hours during business days. We prioritize account security issues and technical problems affecting trading capabilities.
