On signing up for an account, we will need to verify your eligibility as an investor by answering some questions.

Once you have been approved you will gain access to our Investment Platform. The Platform has a range of investments with varying timescales and returns. Select the return and length of time you wish to invest for and you will be able to view the investment memorandum.

Once you are happy to proceed you click the invest button and you will then be required to prove your identity via our third-party KYC and Anti Money Laundering provider. Simply answer a few questions and upload your I.D. documents to be verified.

Once verified you will have an escrow account opened for you and receive a payment request via our independent escrow account provider (Vaulltix). You can then send the amount you wish to invest, along with your Vida Capital Account number as a reference.

Once we have received confirmation from the escrow provider that your funds have been received a bond certificate will be issued and your investment will go live on your Platform Account. You can view your investments live by logging in 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

Your returns will be paid to your nominated bank account yearly.

Bonds are an alternative investment product. They are used by companies to raise capital in the form of a loan. All of our bonds are asset-backed and backed by a corporate guarantee as well as a charge over assets. All funds are sent to an FCA Regulated independent Legal Escrow.

Bonds have the potential to provide attractive returns - for experienced investors in particular - which are uncorrelated to traditional equity and bond markets.

Property bonds are corporate bonds (also known as loan notes) issued to investors by companies. Bonds are usually issued for a fixed term - generally two to five years - with a target fixed-rate of return paid to the investor.

Once invested, investors receive a bond certificate and benefit from security over the underlying asset by a legal charge.

A company may issue bonds to raise finance, and when you invest, your money is used to lend money to companies. Once the bonds are issued and loans are made, they are secured against the assets of the company or project they are raising finance for.

An Independent FCA Regulated Legal Escrow account is used to provide an additional element of protection.

An alternative investment is a financial asset that does not fall into one of the conventional investment categories. Conventional categories include stocks, bonds, and cash. Alternative investments include private equity or venture capital, hedge funds, managed futures, art and antiques, commodities, and derivatives contracts. Real estate is also often classified as an alternative investment.

An Independent Escrow is a legal arrangement in which an asset (such as cash or stock) is deposited into an escrow account under the trust of a third party (the escrow agent) until the satisfaction of a contractual contingency or condition.
