How long does it take to activate my FYERS account?

Once you submit all required documents and complete your account opening process, FYERS begins verifying your details. During this period, your application is reviewed and your account is prepared for activation.

Account activation is completed within 1 working day

If all submitted information is correct, your FYERS account is typically activated within 1 working day. This timeline applies during standard business days, excluding weekends and public holidays.

Events that take place after account submission

  1. Document review and KYC verification
    We review your KYC documents for compliance and accuracy.
  2. Client ID generation
    Once verified, a Unique Client Code (UCC)—also known as your Client ID—is generated.
  3. Discrepancy resolution (if needed)
    If there’s any issue with your documents, an account executive will contact you by phone or email to help you resolve it quickly.
  4. Account activation and confirmation
    When everything is approved, your trading account is activated. You’ll receive confirmation via SMS, WhatsApp, and email.

Platform access before activation is complete

After signing up, you can log in to FYERS (Web or App) using your registered mobile number. You’ll be able to explore the layout and menus, but you won’t be able to place trades or access core features until your account is fully activated. Your current status will be visible on the platform dashboard.

If you apply on a weekend or public holiday, the verification process will resume on the next working day. Plan your submission accordingly to avoid delays.
