Pearler may be one of the newest online share trading platforms in Australia, but they’ve hit the ground running by offering low-cost access to shares, ETFs and other securities across US and Australian markets. Beyond pricing, Pearler is also promising a simpler investing experience with a number of handy features including the ‘autoinvest’ tool.
Pearler currently has an offer where customers can score an extra 10 US shares for free when using their prepay feature.
Pearler allows users to invest in US and Australian equities markets, with shares, exchange traded funds (ETFs) and managed funds (mFunds) all able to be purchased and sold via Pearler’s online platform.
How about costs? Well there’s no monthly fee involved and Pearler charges a $6.50 flat brokerage for all trades. There is also a 0.5% foreign exchange fee when converting between AUD and USD.
Pearler also offers a number of ETFs for $0 brokerage, though this is restricted to participating providers such as eInvest, ETF Securities and VanEck. Just bear in mind that if you end up selling any of the zero brokerage ETFs within a year, the normal brokerage rates of buying and selling ($13.00 all up) will apply.
Aside from low brokerage, one of the other benefits of the Pearler platform is the features available. For example, users can make use of the ‘autoinvest’ tool to set up regular investments and help maintain their portfolio balance over time.
Pearler is also currently offering an extra 10 US shares (for free!) to customers who use their prepay feature.
With low brokerage costs and some handy, innovative features, Pearler’s online share trading platform could be a particularly good option for those just starting out on their investing journey.
Investors also won’t be able to make limit orders, which may be an important feature for some.
