Accounts & headline costs
Sections ↑Yuh combines payments, savings and investing in one mobile app, but the regulated service chain matters: Swissquote Bank Ltd provides the banking, trading and custody relationship. Securities and crypto share an interface while using different pricing and legal arrangements.[6][1][2][9]

Products & platforms
Sections ↑Products and ownership structure
| Product or service | Published access | Boundary that matters |
|---|---|---|
| Shares | Selected international equities and fractional access | Fractional rights and transferability differ from whole sharesSource 3Source 1 |
| ETFs and ETPs | One-off and recurring investment routes | TER, stamp duty and sell charges remainSource 4Source 5 |
| Trending Themes | Curated thematic securities products | Product composition and costs must be read in-appSource 1 |
| Bonds | Selected fixed-income products where available | Credit, liquidity and price risk remainSource 1 |
| Cryptoassets | Selected crypto positions through Yuh | 1% transaction charge and crypto-specific riskSource 1Source 2 |
Platform and workflow
| Platform / route | Documented capability | Practical boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Yuh app | Cash, cards, investing, recurring orders and support | Orders and account management use the Yuh mobile appSource 1Source 6 |
| Fractional order | Allows investment from the stated minimum | Held through the fiduciary-interest structure; routine external transfers are currently unavailableSource 3Source 14Source 16 |
| Recurring investment | Weekly or monthly schedule for supported products | Only eligible ETF buys receive the zero trading-fee offerSource 5 |
Under the fractional-trading execution policy, the account holds fiduciary interests in instruments held in Swissquote’s name for the customer. Swissquote can obtain the underlying instrument in the market or from its own inventory. A credited customer trade therefore does not necessarily occur at the same moment or price as Swissquote’s own acquisition of the underlying asset.[16]
Fees & holding costs
Sections ↑Primary pricing
| Cost layer | Published amount or basis | Scope and condition |
|---|---|---|
| Securities order up to CHF 10,000 | 0.50%; minimum CHF 1 | Shares, ETFs/ETPs and ThemesSource 1Source 4 |
| CHF 10,000.01–20,000 | 0.35% | Calculated in CHF equivalentSource 1Source 2 |
| Above CHF 20,000 | 0.25% | Calculated in CHF equivalentSource 1Source 2 |
| Eligible ETF recurring buy | 0% trading fee | Stamp duty, TER and sell fee remainSource 5Source 2 |
| Crypto buy or sell | 1% | Charged each sideSource 1Source 2 |
Secondary and event-driven charges
| Item | Published treatment | When it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Custody | CHF 0 / no Yuh custody fee | Third-party product costs remainSource 2 |
| Swiss stamp duty | Applicable where required | Government tax, not broker commissionSource 1Source 5 |
| ETF TER | Product-specific | Embedded in the fund/ETPSource 4 |
| Savings-project cash interest | 0% for CHF, EUR and USD at the review date | Savings-project cash is distinct from securities incomeSource 2 |
| Currency conversion | 0.95% above the mid-market rate | Separate from securities or crypto transaction feesSource 2 |
The CHF 1 minimum makes small ordinary orders more expensive in percentage terms: a CHF 10 securities purchase pays CHF 1, or 10%, before other costs. This minimum does not apply to an eligible zero-commission recurring ETF purchase. A currency conversion can add a further 0.95%.[4][5][2]
Execution & trading rules
Sections ↑Available securities order types
| Instruction or situation | Documented operation | Consequence |
|---|---|---|
| Market order | Execute at the available price | The final price can differ from the quoted priceSource 14 |
| Limit order | Buy at the limit or below; sell at the limit or above | May remain unfilledSource 14 |
| Stop-loss order | Becomes a market sell when triggered | The stop price is not a guaranteed sale priceSource 14 |
| Order funding | The FAQ describes a 10% security margin and a CHF 50,000 order-value ceiling | Fees and buffer are additional; money must be in Pay, not a Save projectSource 14 |
| Recurring buy | Weekly or monthly for supported products | Eligible zero-fee ETFs require a recurring buy; one-off purchases and sales use ordinary pricingSource 5 |
Published securities dealing windows
| Market | Published time | Qualification |

Deposits, withdrawals & transfers

| Sale proceeds | Credited to cash after execution and settlement | Reinvestment and bank withdrawal timing can differSource 6 |
| Outgoing bank transfer | Swiss/Liechtenstein transfers in supported currencies and EUR SEPA transfers are free | Other-currency transfers within the supported SEPA area cost CHF 4; bank/intermediary fees can be extraSource 2 |

|---|---|---|
| Incoming securities | Not currently offered, including from Swissquote or PostFinance | Opening a Yuh account does not link an existing securities portfolioSource 14Source 3 |
| Outgoing securities | Not currently offered as an ordinary account service | A move to another provider can require sale and cash movement insteadSource 14 |
| Crypto transfer | Transfers to and from other institutions are not currently offered | The contract’s discretionary transfer provisions do not establish an available app functionSource 14Source 18 |
| Custody terms and insolvency | The legal documents separately address return or transfer of custody assets | An insolvency/return provision is different from routine customer transfer availabilitySource 17Source 16 |
Protection & regulation
Sections ↑Entity and protection boundaries
| Arrangement | Published arrangement | What it does not establish |
|---|---|---|
| Provider | Swissquote Bank Ltd, supervised by FINMA | The Yuh brand is not a separate bank licenceSource 6Source 11 |
| Eligible bank deposits | Swiss deposit protection up to CHF 100,000 | Aggregates with other eligible deposits at Swissquote BankSource 1Source 12 |
| Securities custody | Fiduciary interests held through Swissquote; custody rules can use third-party or omnibus arrangements | Custody and return rights are distinct from deposit insurance and do not cover market lossesSource 16Source 17 |
| Crypto custody | Swissquote may hold directly or use sub-custodians under the digital-assets contract | The contract says bankruptcy treatment depends on legal and custody factors; it does not give an unconditional CHF 100,000 crypto guaranteeSource 18 |
Opening an account & support
Sections ↑Official support and complaint routes
Scope Account support and suspected fraud; the published telephone is also printed on Swissquote’s Yuh agreements.
Hours Ordinary enquiries Monday–Friday 08:00–19:00 Swiss time; suspected fraud 24/7.
Scope App, message and telephone support routes.
Hours Monday–Friday, 08:00–19:00 Swiss time, as published.
Scope The public page supplies the current urgent-contact route. Urgent fraud/card route; not an execution desk.
Hours 24 hours, as published for fraud support.
The current account FAQ requires official residence evidence when requested and specifically excludes ordinary utility bills. New applicants in Austria and Liechtenstein also need the EUR 500 first deposit from their residence country. These onboarding requirements are more specific than the investment page’s general sign-up illustration.[13][1]
