Short answers to the questions allocators ask most. For anything not covered here, email support@gm.markets.
Do I need to KYC to use GM Markets?
No. GM Markets is permissionless. Connect a wallet and transact. Jurisdictional eligibility is enforced at the asset level, not per user. Certain tokenized securities are restricted to eligible jurisdictions and, where applicable, to accredited investors verified by Flo at the issuer layer. See Reg D & Reg S.
Who holds my assets?
You do. GM Markets is non-custodial. Tokens live in your wallet from deposit to withdrawal. The only exception is capital you deposit into a DeFi vault, which is held in a ForDeFi MPC wallet operated under a published signer quorum, never in an externally-owned account. See Vaults in MPC custody.
What chains does GM Markets support?
Ethereum, Base, and Arbitrum. Tokens are ERC-20 standard and compatible with Aave, Morpho, Pendle, and any other protocol that accepts ERC-20.
What wallets are supported?
MetaMask and WalletConnect v2. Hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor) are supported via WalletConnect. A read-only demo wallet populates the site with a sample portfolio for previewing the connected state.
What fees do I pay?
All fees are displayed at the point of transaction: platform fee, performance fee (where applicable), gas, and curator fee on DeFi vaults. All APYs shown across the platform are net of fees. See No hidden fees.
How do I redeem my tokens?
Burn the token from the Trade page. The underlying is liquidated at Interactive Brokers or Alpaca Markets and USDC is settled to your wallet. Standard redemption completes in T+1 to T+2 for tokenized equities, faster for crypto and stablecoin-native vaults.
What happens if GM Markets shuts down?
The protocol continues even if the interface does not. Flo-issued tokens remain redeemable at the issuer layer via Ankura Trust, who serves as the security and collateral agent for all Flo tokenized securities. See Continuity guaranteed.
How do I verify my balance is in the reserves?
GM Markets publishes a daily Merkle root of all user balances on-chain. Download your inclusion proof from the dashboard and verify it against the on-chain root using the open-source verifier CLI. See Proof of solvency.
What's the minimum allocation?
There is no minimum. You can deposit any amount on Markets or Vaults.
I'm a US person. Can I use GM Markets?
The public gm.markets interface is not available to US persons. US verified accredited investors can access tokenized securities directly through Flo under Regulation D Rule 506(c). See Reg D & Reg S compliant.
What if my transaction is stuck or failed?
Check the network congestion indicator on the Trade page. If a transaction shows "pending" for over 10 minutes, you can speed it up or cancel from your wallet. For settlement issues on tokenized asset redemptions, email support@gm.markets with the transaction hash.
Does GM Markets have an API?
GM Markets reads directly from the underlying contracts. The "API" is the chain. For programmatic access (custom allocators, trading bots, portfolio management), see the Docs or contact partners@gm.markets.
