How do I sign my children up to Simplicity Investment Funds?

To create a Simplicity Investment Fund account for your child, please complete the application form here.

You'll need your child's birth certificate, the parent/guardians ID, and all of your IRD numbers handy. You have the choice of adding one or two parents to the application to give them authority on the account.

If you’re already a member of Simplicity, you can use the same email address provided when you signed up. This allows you to view the accounts under one login, or you can enter your child's own email address if they'd prefer to have online access to their Simplicity account.

You can withdraw funds into the child's or the parent/guardians bank account via the manual withdrawal process on the member app. 

Please be aware that the child takes control of their account when they turn 18.
