In FY23, IG experienced a profit reduction, while its Investment and Trading turned around. IG suggests Apple Pay for smooth and instant payments.
Transition to Apple Pay
Upon ending the PayPal payment mode, IG account holders must explore alternative funding and withdrawal options for their IG accounts. The suggested option, Apple Pay, ensures a smooth experience by providing high authorization rates and instant transitions.
An IG administrator said that the decision to adjust the payment methods came from their discussion with the FCA. The official assured users of alternative funding and withdrawal options, where they suggest utilizing Apple Pay.
Users are advised to contact IG directly with any concerns or questions about the payment method adjustments.
