An update on this, we’re doing alpha (staff) testing this week. We’ll buzz the beta tester group on this forum to help us put the feature through its paces before the end of April.
Fractional shares will gradually roll out to everyone throughout May. Similar to the Invest by Freetrade upgrade process, the more active (ie. regularly investing) accounts will see the feature enabled first.
It’s been a big piece of engineering work, and as far as we know, no other company has done it to the depth we did. Our approach resulted in a longer lead time than we wished for in this case, but for our customers, we think it’s worth going to the right depth to build a sustainable service.
