Hey guys,
I keep seeing mention of fractional shares coming soon - just wondering if you had a timescale at all?
On that note, the two other things that Iâd mainly be interested in (besides more stocks!) is an API to retrieve my positions, average entry price, ex div dates etc, and some sort of DRIP - are both of these on the horizon? Any idea when abouts theyâd be likely to be released? I guess DRIP canât really happen before fractional shares, so thatâs the pressing one really!
If you look at the roadmap, Fractional shares is in the up next after all the things theyâre working on at the moment. Later this year is the only timeline Iâve seen mentioned
As Emma mentioned, the roadmapâs the best place to check for a summary of the things that weâre working on & getting a rough timescale for when theyâll be ready. We donât have a more concrete date for the launch of fractional shares yet. But weâll be sure to share it here as soon as we do.

Quick question: is the ability to purchase a percentage of a share specific to stocks, or theoretically you could also purchase a fraction of a bond if you decided to also allow users to buy bonds with the platform in the future?
Hi Alex. Is it still the plan to have fractional shares from ÂŁ1 upwards? I seem to remember seeing it on the homepage but it doesnât seem to be there anymore so I wondered if thatâs still the case?
We just used ÂŁ1 because it was a nice low, round figure. Thereâs no set minimum order value at the moment but weâll have to wait and see how fractional shares shape up before we can confirm if there will be a minimum value for those
