Generally, Newton is available to Canadian residents over the age of 18 who meet our verification requirements.
How do I open an account?
Sign up on Newton.co or through our mobile app on the App Store or Google Play. You’ll be asked for some basic information and a government-issued ID to verify your identity.
Why do I need to verify my identity?
Canadian regulations require platforms like ours to confirm the identity of every user. This process helps limit fraudulent activity and ensures accounts are being used by the residents who created the accounts.
How is my account protected?
We use industry-standard security measures to help protect accounts and user information. See more on our security practices here.
Do I need two-factor authentication (2FA)?
Yes. Two-factor authentication makes your account much harder to access without permission. We walk you through how to set it up here.
