Tips:

1. Your payment account name must be the same as your FUTU Securities account name. Funds transfered from third-party accounts, E-wallets or cash transfers will not be accepted.

2. Your transferred funds needs to be settled and verified after FUTU have received your transfer. 

3. Due to compliance reasons (e.g. channel and country risks) and to protect the safety of your assets, Futu HK may refuse your deposit.  After the refusal, Futu HK will inform you the arrangement of the return of funds, either via the same route, or by other means.
