How to Get Free Stocks: 9 Investment Apps Giving Away Free Stock(s)


More than ever there’s a lot of great options when it comes to investing apps and brokerages and they all want your business.

Investment apps and brokerages know that someday you are going to be rich and famous. They know you’re to be a profitable customer for them so they are willing to compensate you for getting started investing with them, with the hopes that over the years you invest thousands of dollars on their platform.

Depending on the investment app, you could earn from a couple dollars up to thousands of dollars just for signing up or in some cases depositing a nominal amount. I only included offers here that have initial investments / deposits of $50 or less.

Here’s my list of investment apps that are giving away free stock for signing up and/or making a small initial deposit:
