How to Deposit and Withdraw Money with the Robinhood App - YouTube

Channel: Honest Finance

[0]
so I've been giving a lot of questions regarding how to withdraw money and how
[3]
to deposit money using the Robinhood app so in this video I thought I'd just
[6]
make a quick tutorial for you guys so you can learn how to do that because
[9]
honestly it's not that technical but I feel like a lot of us are just getting
[13]
confused because of how you're supposed to do it and where it's located on the
[17]
app so that's what we're gonna be covering I'll cover just a few of the
[20]
basics that you guys need to understand and then from there we'll go right into
[23]
my phone and I'll show you guys exactly how to withdraw and how to deposit money
[27]
using the Robinhood app so obviously if you want to invest in the stock market
[30]
you're gonna need money inside of your Robin Hood account and the only way to
[34]
do that is to deposit money from your bank to Robinhood and it's really very
[39]
simple you're just depositing cash that you already have in your bank to Robin
[43]
Hood and it sits inside your cash account until you execute meaning you
[47]
actually trade shares on the stock market and that's all there is to it
[50]
so typically the way it works is if you deposit money from your bank account to
[54]
a brokerage you're usually gonna have to wait about three business days before
[58]
you even have access to that money so for instance if you move 200 bucks from
[62]
your bank to the brokerage account you can't trade with that no matter what the
[65]
stock market is doing but the cool thing about Robin Hood is that they have
[69]
what's called instant buying power and what this means is that they allow you
[72]
up to a thousand dollars instantly whenever you deposit to trade with that
[76]
money so for instance if you move 200 bucks from your bank to Robin Hood then
[81]
instantly you're gonna be able to trade with that 200 dollars and you don't have
[84]
to wait the 3 business days like you normally do and then if you're
[87]
subscribed to Robin Hood gold which is currently 5 bucks a month you'll
[91]
actually have access to five thousand dollars instant deposit just for being a
[95]
member and then you can actually have access up to 50 thousand dollars if your
[99]
account matches that amount of money so for instance you've got to have fifty
[102]
thousand dollars in your portfolio or in your cash account but then you can match
[106]
up to fifty thousand dollars instantly as a Robin Hood gold number and then
[111]
just make sure that if you are depositing money from your bank account
[114]
to Robin Hood then you actually have the funds available because if you want a
[118]
thousand dollars from your bank account to go into Robin Hood but you only have
[121]
seven hundred then that is a problem you can't just borrow that money you
[125]
actually have to have that in your bank account in order for it to work properly
[129]
or you're gonna have to pay a fee and then on top of that you're not gonna
[132]
have the instant buying power with Robin Hood because you're obviously not
[135]
gonna be in good standing with him so just make sure that you've always got
[138]
enough money in your bank account whenever you need money to go inside
[141]
with Robin Hood and then you don't have to worry about anything and you'll
[144]
always have access to their instant buying power up to a thousand bucks now
[148]
if you do have an interest in watching more Robin Hood videos like for instance
[151]
how to buy and sell shares or how their dividends work and check out this
[154]
playlist up here this is gonna be all the different Robin Hood videos that
[157]
I've made you can click that whenever and you can learn more about them but
[161]
for now we are gonna go right into my phone and we're gonna learn exactly how
[165]
you can withdraw and how to deposit money using the Robin Hood app okay so
[170]
in order to deposit and withdraw money you just have to click the little person
[173]
on the bottom right here and then from here you just click the third option
[177]
down which is transfers for deposits and withdrawals so if we want to deposit
[182]
money to Robin Hood you're just gonna click the top one which is transfer to
[186]
Robin Hood now from here all you do is set the amount that you want to take
[189]
from your bank account to Robin Hood and you can select the specific make you
[193]
want so if this isn't the one that you want to do just click on change bank and
[197]
then you can change banks so for instance if we want to do $200 we'll
[200]
just stick $200 here we'll click review and you'll double check that your bank
[205]
accounts correct you hit submit and that is all you have to do and then that
[209]
money is going to be instantly in your account as long as you're in good
[213]
standing with them and up to a thousand dollars now if you want to withdraw
[216]
money from Robin Hood to your bank just click the second one down which is
[220]
transferred to your bank and right here if you look below you'll see that I have
[223]
one thousand twelve dollars and ninety nine cents available to withdraw so
[228]
that's how much cash I have available in my cash account now just keep in mind
[232]
that if you've recently traded shares or anything like that
[234]
you do have to wait three trading days in order for those to settle so for
[238]
instance if you sold a thousand dollars worth of shares yesterday you're not
[242]
going to have access to that money for another two days assuming that those are
[246]
business days because they're obviously closed on holidays and weekends
[249]
so just keep that in mind so right now if I wanted to withdraw a thousand
[253]
dollars from my cash account I can I just put that in here make sure that I'm
[257]
sending it to the right bank account obviously you can change that right here
[260]
if you need to or you can add more bank accounts you just click review and then
[264]
from here you just double check everything and as soon as you hit
[267]
it that thousand dollars is gonna be going from Robin Hood to your bank now
[272]
just keep in mind that that is not going to be instant you're not gonna see that
[275]
money for a few days and that is completely normal
[277]
you have to wait a few business days before that money gets to your bank so
[281]
if you needed tomorrow that's not gonna happen
[284]
you just have to wait and that's all there is when it comes to withdrawing
[287]
and depositing money on the Robin Hood app it really is super simple you just
[291]
need to know where it is and how to do it and now you guys do now if you just
