What is the minimum amount that I can deposit at one time?

The minimum for one-time deposits is $1,000. This remains the case after you have made your initial deposit. The reason we don't accept smaller deposits is because of the buying power necessary to purchase investment-grade fine wines.

NOTE

Laws and regulations administered by OFAC impose restrictions on the provision of services to persons, including U.S. citizens and permanent residents, that are located in specified sanctioned jurisdictions, including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the Crimea region of Ukraine. If you travel to these locations, you won’t be able to access your account, and attempted log-ins may lead to account restrictions.
