Short answer: Yes.
If your shares are issuer-sponsored (held with an SRN at Computershare, MUFG (formerly Link), Automic, BoardRoom, etc.), you don’t need a registry username or password to sell. With Unbroker, you can complete a one-off, execution-only sale online – no registry portal, no trading account, no phone queues.
Do You Need to Log In to the Registry to Sell?
Not necessarily. Registries keep company share records; they’re generally not set up to execute one-off sales for everyday holders. If you just want to cash out an issuer-sponsored holding, you can do it without logging into a registry website.
What You Actually Need
Have these ready and you’re good to go:
- SRN (Security Reference Number) – on a holding statement
- 100 points of ID for each registered shareholder
- Bank account details in the shareholder’s name (estate matters: estate or solicitor trust account)
- Number of shares to sell
Your SRN is the key — not a registry login.
Why People Get Stuck on Registry Logins
Registries aren’t usually designed for quick disposals, especially if you:
- Haven’t logged in for years or forgot your password
- Changed personal information (name, email address, etc)
- Don’t want to learn a new portal just to sell once
We Handle the Registry and Market For You
Here’s the difference with us:
- You complete one secure form and ID verification.
- We deal with the share registry and the market participants needed to execute the sale correctly.
- No portal logins, no phone tag, no chasing forms.
- Execution-only: fast, compliant processing without advice or upsells.
How it Works
- Submit your sale online — enter holding details and provide payment details.
- Online ID Verification—verify shareholder ID online
- On-market sale — usually same or next business day after approval.
- Payment — funds arrive one business day after ASX settlement.
Who This Suits
- Individuals or joint holders with issuer-sponsored shares
- Executors or attorneys acting for someone else (with proper authority)
- Companies, trusts, SMSFs needing a one-off disposal
Skip the Registry Login
If portal logins feel like a dead end, skip them. Complete the Unbroker form and ID verification – we handle the registries and the trade.
