### 3/5 — Abu Faisal

*2024-01-02, version 6.6*

Today I updated the App in my Mobile and while I was going through it, I noticed that my iVestor account balance was in Debt and this cannot be since it’s not a  Credit Card, I called the DFM customer service and they confirmed my correct balance, however the App was not reflecting this and they said this could be to some technical issues, still it would be wise if you could go through this problem since some other people might be facing it

### 3/5 — Data from this app is shared ?

### 3/5 — Contactless chip scanning does not word

*2022-03-22, version 2.9.3*

I have been trying to setup an account and faced two issues

While scanning the emirates ID it took more than 10 attempts to get the scanning completed. Each time I scan the validation fails. 

Contactless chip scanning of Emirates ID does not work even after multiple attempts

I see the same complaint registered by multiple users so there indeed is some issue which requires fix.

### 1/5 — Before buying share

*2025-11-18, version 10.1.2*

Before buying shares make sure to learn about how to trade them and sell them, it’s really long process and not through this app I regret buying share its really complicated

### 1/5 — App is always not working

*2025-05-14, version 7.9*

### 5/5 — DFM

*2024-12-16, version 7.8*

DFM Market

### 5/5 — Amazing platform!

*2024-05-03, version 6.9*

This app allows you to track all your investments in Dubai Financial Market, Gives you a great sector breakdown and allows you to receive all your dividends in a single physical/digital card which has its own IBAN account. You can treat this as a separate bank account where you can transfer money to and from. Plus you can use the ivestor card to pay for your purchases via apple pay. Good job!

### 5/5 — Effortless Investor Setup

*2024-03-14, version 6.8*

As an investor based in India, I recently explored the DFM App to obtain my Investor Number (NIN) and set up a trading account. Here’s my experience:
Swift NIN Application: The DFM App made it a breeze to apply for my Investor Number. Within minutes, I completed the process, uploaded my identification documents, and even snapped a selfie. No need for physical presence or lengthy paperwork!
Brokerage Options: The app allows you to choose from various licensed brokers. I opted for one that offered an all-in-one digital onboarding experience. Their support team promptly assisted me throughout.
Real-Time Trading: Once I had my NIN, I connected with my chosen broker. The DFM App provides real-time data, including market prices for DFM and Nasdaq Dubai listed securities. Trading hours are clearly defined, making it easy to plan my moves.
Secure Transactions: I appreciated the security features. Whether it’s managing my iVESTOR card or tracking my portfolio, the app ensures a safe and transparent experience.
Global Accessibility: As a non-UAE resident, I was thrilled to learn that the Dubai Central Securities Depository (Dubai CSD) welcomes investors from any country. The DFM App bridges geographical gaps.
In summary, the DFM App is a game-changer for investors. It’s like having a financial advisor in your pocket! Kudos to the team for simplifying the process and making trading accessible to all. 
Remember, investing involves risks, so always do your due diligence. But with the DFM App, you’re on the right track! 📈💪

### 4/5 — Bug need to be fixed

*2023-04-05, version 5.1*

When i go through the process to open investor account, i have been asked by the app to give access to the camera to scan the emirates id, but the fact is the app doesn’t have the option to get the access to camera in the settings!! Its not available! So there’s no way to do it using the app.

### 4/5 — A CHERRY ON TOP

The app is amazing and has a lot of cool stuff but there are certain stuff that needs to have improvements. The interface can have a few more changes and make it more user friendly
