Investing involves allocating money in the stock market with the aim of generating income or profit. With ztock, you have the option to invest in various stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to diversify your investments.
On ztock, you can purchase stocks or ETFs easily. Simply search for a company name or ticker symbol, select the desired quantity of stock you want to buy (either from a preset amount or a custom amount), and complete the transaction using the funds available in your ztock balance. If there are insufficient funds, you may want to transfer funds from you choice of bank or e-wallet. After the order is filled, you can view your investment by accessing the Folio tab on your ztock home screen. You can schedule stock purchases or sales at any time, but the orders will only be executed during market hours.
Fractional shares are less than one whole share of a company's stock. With ztock, you can purchase fractional shares with as little as $1. To buy fractional shares, search for a company name or ticker symbol, choose the desired quantity (from a preset or custom amount), and complete the transaction through ztock. This allows you to invest in your favorite companies with any amount of money, even as little as $1.
