About a minute in Chrome or Edge on a computer. This page watches for the extension and ticks each step off, then connects it to your Investi in one click.

One moment.

Steps

  1. Download the extension

    A small zip file. Chrome installs it from a folder on your computer because Investi isn’t in the Chrome Web Store.

  2. Unzip it and keep the folder

    Open the zip from your Downloads. You get a folder named Investi-for-Schwab-0.1.12. Move it somewhere you won’t delete it, such as Documents. Chrome runs the extension from that folder, so if the folder goes, so does the extension.

  3. Open Chrome’s extensions page and turn on Developer mode

    Copy this address, paste it into Chrome’s address bar and press Enter. Web pages can’t open it for you. In Edge, use edge://extensions.

    chrome://extensions

    Then switch on Developer mode, top right:

    The Developer mode switch, top right of Chrome's Extensions page, highlighted.
  4. Click Load unpacked and choose the folder

    Three buttons appear. Click Load unpacked, then choose the Investi-for-Schwab-0.1.12 folder from step 2. Select the folder itself, not a file inside it.

    The Load unpacked button, highlighted, next to Pack extension and Update.

    The Investi card shows up in your extensions. This page notices on its own:

  5. Connect it to your Investi

    Sign in to Investi on this computer, and this page connects the extension for you. No token to copy.

Updating

Download the new zip, unzip it, and replace the contents of your Investi-for-Schwab-… folder with it. Then click the reload arrow on the Investi card in chrome://extensions. It stays connected, because its ID never changes. It doesn’t update on its own outside the Web Store.

About the developer mode notice

Chrome may show a notice about developer mode extensions. That’s expected for anything installed outside the Chrome Web Store. Keep Investi switched on. The extension is read-only: it never places, changes or cancels an order.
