Frequently asked questions

You subscribe for one calendar month at a time, so there's no long-term commitment. You can choose not to subscribe to the service for any given month(s) and will not be charged for this month(s). And you can resubscribe any time you like.

When you first login in a new calendar month you will be prompted to subscribe before you can access CommSecIRESS. Once subscribed, you will be able to access CommSecIRESS until the end of that calendar month.

Yes, so long as they are all placed on accounts linked to the Client ID that you use for your CommSecIRESS subscription. Trades placed on joint accounts that link to two or more Client IDs will only qualify for the Client ID that placed the trade. So, for instance, if you place a trade on an account you hold jointly with your spouse, that trade will count on your Client ID but not your spouse's.

If you meet the subscription criteria, the subscription process should take about five minutes.
