Set up a trust or SMSF account

You can set up a trust or SMSF account, also called an entity account, in 2 steps.

This information is specifically for trust and SMSF accounts.

Step 1: Prepare the required documents and accounts

To register a Swyftx account in your trust or SMSF's name, you will need:

  • A copy of the trust or SMSF Deed Summary page(s), also known as an Extract or Schedules. If you're unsure, you can attach the entire trust or SMSF Deed.
  • All trustees and named beneficiaries are to hold verified Swyftx accounts.

If your trust or SMSF has a corporate trustee, i.e., linked to your registered Pty Ltd Company, you will also need:


Step 2: Upload your documents and complete the application on Swyftx

You will use your current Swyftx account for the trust or SMSF application. You won't need to make a new account.

If someone in your trust or SMSF still needs to get a verified Swyftx account, we will email them instructions on what to do.

Applications will only progress once all parties are verified users on Swyftx.
