Check under Cash balance – Whenever you do a deposit transaction via bank/m-pesa/equity agent, the money will be captured as cash under cash balance and automatically moves to investment balance the next business day to start earning interest (which is the date displayed on your app under activity and it’s also captured in the email confirmation that you received with a pdf document).
If you deposit on a Friday or a weekend it cannot be invested until Monday, but after that the money earns interest even on weekends that follow thereafter.
If you also deposit on a public holiday, it cannot be invested until the next working day, but after that the money earns interest even on holidays that will follow thereafter.
For Bank – Withdrawal to bank is free and is paid within 2 working days.
For M-pesa – You can withdraw up to KES 100,000 to m-pesa instantly in a few seconds as a daily limit. More than that e.g. KES 100,001 onwards is paid within 2 working days.
Withdrawal to m-pesa has Safaricom charges between KES 4/= to KES 30/= based on amount but it will show you before you complete the process (e.g. highest is KES 30/= charge if withdrawing KES 250,000).

The rates / returns changes daily and you can see them when you login to the app or on our website here: https://eticacap.com/payment-options/
The daily yield is the annualized rate that will be used to calculate the interest that will be distributed to clients at the end of the day, its net of fees but gross of withholding tax
The effective annual yield takes into account the compounding effect, it basically shows what the actual rate would be if for one year you are earning interest using the daily rate and this interest is compounded daily meaning the interest is also earning thus the effective rate is higher than the daily yield.
Assuming a rate of daily return of 16.70% p.a Interest for the day calculation will be: ((16.70% / 365) X 100) Then whatever you get as result X 0.85 (to remove withholding tax of 15%) = That comes to about KES 0.04
That’s the Compound Interest formula for daily income calculation
Assuming an annual rate of return of 18.17% p.a Interest for the day calculation will be: (18.17% X 100) Then whatever you get as result X 0.85 (to remove withholding tax of 15%) = That comes to about KES 15.45
That’s the Compound Interest formula for annual income calculation
