How to settle up
When you place a trade the standard time you have to make your payment, in either cash for purchases or stock for sales, is three working days. Find out more about how to make a cash payment.
Longer payment options - Extended Settlement
You can settle up to twenty five working days later when trading by telephone with TD Waterhouse. One advantage of this is when buying, you can sell those shares before payment is due so only have to pay the difference in price or receive the balance owing to you. Find our more about Extended Settlement.
