Paying in

Paying in to your Share Account

You can pay in to your Share Account using the following methods:

Debit card

You can pay in online or telephone our Customer Service team or Dealing team and give your card details. Once payment has been authorised by your bank (usually within 15 minutes) you can place your dealing instructions.

We cannot accept payment by credit card.

Cheque

Please make cheques payable to The Share Centre Limited quoting your customer reference number and account number on the reverse. When drawing a cheque from a building society account, please ask them to print your name on the reverse as confirmation the funds came from your account.

BACS/CHAPS

A BACS payment takes three working days to be received while a CHAPS payment will usually clear on the same day, but your bank will charge you for this. To make a payment by BACS or CHAPS contact your bank and provide them with:
1. Your customer reference number
2. Your Share Account account number
3. Our bank account details:

Bank of Scotland
Branch = Edinburgh
Account number = 00100130
Sort code = 12 21 37
Account name = The Share Centre Limited Customer Transfer A/C

Regular Investing

You can set up a direct debit to pay into your Share Account. Simply print off the direct debit form, complete it and return to us.
