Pricing & fees

What ESMIA charges

$0 commission on US stock and ETF trades. No account fee, no custody fee, no inactivity fee, no market-data fee for personal use. Fractional investing from $1 is included.

Pass-through fees of the brokerage partner

Certain small charges are set by regulators, exchanges or our brokerage partner and are passed through at cost. They apply to every US broker and are not ESMIA revenue:

• Regulatory trading fees on sells — the SEC transaction fee and the FINRA Trading Activity Fee (TAF), typically fractions of a cent per share or per $1,000 sold.
• Special processing — items such as paper statements, wire transfers, returned transfers or voluntary corporate actions, per the brokerage Fee Schedule and Exhibit B — Other Fees.

Deposits and withdrawals

During the current rollout phase, funding runs in a sandbox environment and is simulated free of charge. When live payment rails are connected, the deposit methods and any transfer costs will be published on this page before they apply. Currency conversion, when introduced for euro deposits, will carry a disclosed FX spread — shown at the moment of conversion, never hidden in the price.

How ESMIA earns

Our brokerage partner may receive payment for order flow and shares part of it with platforms like ESMIA; see the PFOF Disclosure in Disclosures. This never changes the commission you pay ($0) and orders are always routed for best available execution by the executing broker.
