How to Register an Open Mutual Account in the BukaLapak Android Application

For those who don't know, BukaLapak has been offering Mutual Fund and Gold investment for several years. Not only is it easier, because you simply open smartphone to invest, but also the investment value is very affordable. For BukaReksa (mutual fund stalls), you can start with IDR 10.000, while for BukaEmas (gold stalls) it starts at 0,005 grams or around IDR 3.000.

This investment is a solution for those who are reluctant or still have doubts about the security of these two investment components. How not, with a cost that is even cheaper than cellphone credit, users can invest without having to feel burdened by the shadow of losses. Despite the fact that all investment instruments have risks.
