We built Moka to help Canadians achieve a radically different level of wealth and disrupt the status quo. Moka is the solution that we dreamt of having—an investing app that makes it easy to get rich.
To help you get as much value out of Moka as we do, we've put together this quick start guide. As always, feel free to share your thoughts—good or bad—as that's how we get better.

Choose your account type
By default, Moka places your first goal in a non-registered account. However, choosing a TFSA or RRSP account may provide significant tax advantages.
For long-term investing, a TFSA is generally a great choice for Canadians due to its simplicity and the ability to continue growing your investment after age 71. While contributing to an RRSP may offer tax refunds, withdrawals can be taxed at rates as high as 53.53% if you withdraw fully, whereas TFSA withdrawals aren’t taxed.

Understand your Moka portfolio
Your investment goals are allocated to specific portfolios chosen by your portfolio manager based on your investor profile and the goal's time horizon.
Moka offers five portfolios, with the Equity Growth portfolio presenting the highest growth potential. It’s 100% invested in the S&P 500 and is best suited for long-term goals of at least 10 years.

The Quick Start Guide only scratches the surface of what you can do with Moka. There is still a lot to discover within the app.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

1 - The Moka Equity Growth portfolio performance for 1-year was 37.48%, for 3-years was 14.79%, and for 5-years was 15.08% as of November 30, 2024. The Balanced Growth portfolio performance for 1-year was 28.61%, the Balanced portfolio was 22.69%, the Balanced Income portfolio was 6.87%, and the Cautious Income portfolio was 4.46% as of November 30, 2024. Past performance is no guarantee of future returns.

2 - The 10-year projected annual return is calculated based on the 10 year weighted average total return of indices that closely match the composition of the Moka Funds, namely the S&P 500 Index denominated in Canadian dollars, S&P Canada Aggregate Bond Index and S&P 3-Month Canada Treasury Bill Index, in a manner consistent with the asset allocation mix of the Moka portfolios. The weightings applied to each index are as follows: Equity Growth = 100% equity, Balanced Growth = 70% equity and 30% fixed income, Balanced = 50% equity and 50% fixed income, Balanced Income = 70% fixed income and 30% money market, and Cautious Income = 100% money market. The performance of an index is not an exact representation of any particular investment, as you cannot invest directly in an index.
