JSC Tinkoff Bank is a mono-office bank (without branches, branches and subsidiaries and affiliates), which is controlled by businessman Oleg Tinkov. The organization works mainly with credit cards and deposits. The main distinguishing feature is remote interaction with clients with the help of representatives or using modern communication channels.
Tinkoff Bank launched an investment platform with bonds, shares and currency on its official website. This is a service that makes it possible to purchase currency and securities. It is a version of a trading terminal, with its help you can make transactions on foreign markets and the Moscow Exchange.
If you look at the reviews in the Banki.ru service, you will notice that users praise the work of the chat staff on the official website of Tinkoff Bank. Specialists promptly advise on the nuances of using the service and provide information in as much detail as possible.
Before using the service, you must open a brokerage account. This can be done in the BCS organization, which is the only partner of the project. It provides access to trading, investment ideas and analytics.
The commission for each transaction is 0.3% (minimum amount - 99 rubles) of the transaction value. There are no more service fees. A tax of 13% is calculated from the investor's profit. Overnight interest is paid. Dividends are paid on all shares. If the board of directors decides to make a payment, it will be credited to the client's account within 25 business days.
The service was created by people who are accustomed to investing in deposits, but at the same time require options with higher returns. For intraday fluctuations, the commissions are very large, so the service is not suitable for this purpose. But if people want to hold purchased securities for a long period, it may arouse their interest.
Important! The average amount at which a transaction will generate income is 40-50 thousand rubles. For small amounts the profit will be quite small.
It is not yet possible to open an individual investment account (IIA) at Tinkoff Bank. The press service claims that this is in the plans, but the exact timing is still unknown.
In the reviews, clients confirm that it is possible to request a certificate, which will indicate information about ownership of the paper. This means that the shares will not be lost even if the broker goes bankrupt.
To start using the service, you need to leave an application on the official website. Afterwards, a courier will come to the address with documentation and issue a card. There are no conditions for remote registration through the government services portal. An employee usually arrives within 2 days.

How can you invest in cryptocurrency using Tinkoff
You can indirectly invest in bitcoins and altcoins through the shares of some companies that are freely traded on Russian stock exchanges and are available in the Tinkoff Investments service. The bottom line is that their price is highly dependent on the value of cryptocurrencies.
For example, MicroStrategy invested $500 million in Bitcoin. The entire portfolio owned by the organization is valued at 105,000 coins, which is equivalent to $3.5 billion. Most likely, investments will continue. Because of these factors, MicroStrategy's share price often follows Bitcoin price movements. Of course, the repetition is not 1 to 1. The correlation coefficient ranges from 0.1 to 0.9.
The Coinbase exchange allows its clients to buy and sell popular coins in large quantities. The more popular a cryptocurrency is in the world, the more transactions are carried out on the platform, from which it earns commissions. The richer and more successful an exchange becomes, the more expensive its shares are traded on the stock market. Unlike Microstrategy, it is less dependent on Bitcoin, because in this case, the entire crypto market as a whole is important. If the total capitalization grows and volatility is above average, then the site will receive more active clients. By investing in Coinbase shares, you are essentially investing in the entire cryptocurrency market.
Exchanges
Everyone knows that cryptocurrency needs to be bought on exchanges . And although this is not the easiest way, it is the most profitable.
Cryptocurrency exchanges offer much more favorable conditions for rates and commissions
Bitcoin is available for sale on all crypto exchanges, only the purchase rate differs. When choosing an exchange, it is also important to find out whether it has an official representative office in Russia. This can simplify and speed up the process of solving problems if your funds disappear from your account or your account is blocked, etc.
