Whether you are making your first investment or adding Total Return Active to an existing portfolio, Grow is designed to keep the process simple. Instead of juggling separate accounts for funding, saving, and investing, you can deposit in the currency you already use, buy Total Return Active in a few taps, hold it alongside your other assets, and sell when your strategy calls for it—all from one app.
Total Return Active is an actively managed exchange-traded fund designed to maximize total returns through investments in a variety of asset classes. The fund aims to provide investors with a balance of growth and income by allocating across different sectors and strategies. This guide walks through each step so you know exactly what to expect before you place your first order.
In this guide you'll learn
- How to deposit funds into Grow in your preferred currency.
- How to buy Total Return Active directly from your balance—no matter which currency you funded with.
- How to hold Total Return Active in your portfolio and track your position over time.
- How to sell Total Return Active when you are ready and move proceeds back to cash.
Step 1: Deposit Funds into Grow
Before you can buy Total Return Active, you need cash in your Grow account. Grow supports more than 20 currencies, so most users can deposit in the currency they already earn and spend—whether that is USD, EUR, GBP, MXN, BRL, or another supported option.
To get started, download Grow and create your account. Verification is designed to be fast, so you can move from sign-up to funding without a long waiting period. Once your account is ready, choose deposit and pick the funding method available in your country. Depending on where you live, that may include local bank transfer, card, or supported crypto.
Grow converts and holds balances in the currencies you deposit. That matters because you are not forced into a single funding currency before you invest. If you deposit euros, you can keep euros on hand and still buy dollar-denominated ETFs like Total Return Active when you are ready—the app handles conversion at the point of trade. The same applies across Grow's supported currencies: fund in what you have, invest in what you want.
Uninvested cash on Grow can also earn competitive yield on eligible balances where supported, so money waiting for your next purchase is not necessarily sitting idle. Learn more about Earn to see which currencies currently qualify.
Step 2: Buy Total Return Active from Your Funds
Once your account is funded, buying Total Return Active is straightforward. Search for BRTR or open Total Return Active from the ETFs catalog, enter the dollar amount you want to invest, and review the order before confirming.
Grow supports fractional investing from as little as $1 where available, which means you do not need to save up for a full unit of Total Return Active before getting exposure. That is especially helpful for higher-priced ETFs where a single unit might otherwise be out of reach.
Because Grow routes orders across hundreds of venues, you benefit from smart execution designed to find competitive pricing. Pricing is transparent—you see what you are buying before you confirm—and settlement is fast compared with traditional brokerage workflows that can take days to complete.
You can fund in one currency and buy Total Return Active in another without opening separate accounts or managing manual FX transfers yourself. Grow handles the conversion at trade time so you can focus on building the portfolio you want rather than operational details.
Step 3: Hold Total Return Active in Your Portfolio
After your purchase settles, Total Return Active appears in your Grow portfolio alongside any other assets you hold. From there you can track your position, view performance over time, and see how Total Return Active contributes to your overall allocation.
Holding on Grow means your investments live in the same place as your cash balances. You do not need a separate app to check your ETF holdings or wonder whether funds are available for your next trade. Your portfolio, cash, and transaction history stay connected in one view.
Many investors use Total Return Active as part of a broader strategy—pairing individual ETFs with ETFs, keeping some exposure in cash or stablecoins, or balancing growth assets with lower-volatility holdings. Grow makes it easy to manage that mix without transferring between institutions.
Step 4: Sell Total Return Active When You Want
When you decide to take profits, rebalance, or simply move on from the position, selling Total Return Active on Grow follows the same simple flow as buying. Open the asset in your portfolio, choose sell, enter the amount you want to convert back to cash, and confirm the order.
Proceeds return to your Grow balance in the currency you select, ready to withdraw to your bank, hold for a future purchase, or deploy into another asset. There is no requirement to move funds through a separate settlement account or wait an extended period for trades to clear.
You can sell part of a position or the entire holding, depending on your goal. Fractional support works in both directions—just as you can buy a portion of Total Return Active, you can sell a portion when you want to reduce exposure without exiting completely.
