What FGTS is for and who uses it
FGTS is Caixa Econômica Federal's app for the FGTS, the employer-funded account that workers build up over time. It covers the everyday checks, such as balances and deposits, and the withdrawal requests that come up when a job ends or a withdrawal reason applies. The listing presents it as a way to handle these tasks without going to a branch.
It is aimed at workers who have FGTS accounts and want to see what has been deposited or request money from them. Most of the app's features depend on those accounts being linked to the worker.
Checking balances, deposits and statements
The app shows the total balance across all of a worker's FGTS accounts and a statement for each one. The statements can be printed. A separate view lists the deposits an employer has made, so a worker can confirm that payments arrived.
The app can also authorize financial institutions to query FGTS information. A bank or lender that needs the figures can get them through that authorization, and the worker controls the permission.
Choosing a withdrawal plan
Workers choose between two withdrawal plans in the app: rescission withdrawal, which is paid when a job ends, and anniversary withdrawal, which pays out part of the balance each year on the worker's birthday month. The anniversary plan is optional, and the worker can opt in through the app.
The plan a worker picks determines which withdrawal options are open to them later, so this choice comes before any request.
Requesting FGTS withdrawals
For rescission and retirement, the app offers a digital withdrawal. The worker names the account that should receive the money, either a CAIXA account or one at another bank, and submits the request in the app.
Other withdrawal reasons are handled by sending a request with supporting documents. The listing says every withdrawal allowed by law can be requested in the app, and the worker can check whether they qualify for one.
Keeping bank and address details current
Before a payout, the worker can register a bank account, either CAIXA or another bank, to receive the FGTS credit. The same registration is used for future withdrawals, so it only needs to be kept current.
The app also lets a worker update their address. This keeps the record matching the details the fund holds.
