Your Common Shareholder Number (CSN), Holder Number (HN), or Faster Identification Number (FIN) is incorrect
You’ll need to re-enter your CSN or HN, and your FIN. Double-check your details with one or both of the registries. Then, enter your details again in Account > Transfer shares.
Your CSN or HN isn’t registered to your name, or is for a company or trust account
You can only transfer shares in and out of your Sharesies Portfolio from a CSN or HN with your name on it.
You’ve requested an incorrect number of shares
Try requesting the transfer again in Account > Transfer shares > Transfer in.
You haven’t transferred enough Smartshares shares into Sharesies, or you haven’t left at least 100 Smartshares shares on your CSN.

The signatures don’t match, or we couldn’t see the signature (on your valid ID)
If the signature doesn’t match, we can’t proceed with a transfer.

Your ID might be invalid if it’s expired, the wrong type of ID, or if your signature is not visible. If this happens, you’ll need to start a new transfer request and upload a clear, current, and valid driver licence or passport. You do this through Account > Transfer shares.
