Invest in Bitcoin

Franc's Bitcoin Goal offers a simple and secure way to gain exposure to Bitcoin without needing to use a crypto exchange, digital wallet, or manage private keys.

Why consider investing in Bitcoin?

Bitcoin has shown long-term growth potential, but it's also highly volatile. While it shouldn't replace your core investment strategy, adding a small percentage of Bitcoin can be a way to diversify your portfolio and explore new asset classes, especially if you're investing for the long term.

Franc makes this process easy and accessible.

How it works

• When you create a Bitcoin Goal, your money is pooled with other Franc users and used to purchase real Bitcoin.
• The Bitcoin is securely held in a custodial wallet managed by VALR, a South African crypto exchange.
• There's no minimum amount required to start investing.
• Your Bitcoin balance is reflected in your Franc app and updates with the market value.
• You can withdraw at any time. Standard withdrawals take 2–5 business days; Quick Withdrawals are available if you need faster access (with a small fee).

Important to know

• Available to Pro users only. This helps ensure that those accessing crypto understand the risks and are committed to long-term investing.
• Bitcoin is highly volatile and should be approached as a long-term investment.
• The Franc Bitcoin goal is not suitable for traders. It is suitable for those with a buy-and-hold strategy only. It is also not possible to transfer the Bitcoin you own to other wallets.

Who it's for

• Investors curious about crypto but looking for a simple, regulated entry point.
• People comfortable with higher risk and longer time horizons.
• Users who want to diversify their portfolio by adding a small portion of Bitcoin.

Franc's Bitcoin Goal makes it easy to explore crypto as part of your investment mix – no technical knowledge required.
