FRACTIONAL SHARES
Unlike Schwab, which limits fractional shares to S&P 500 stocks, M1 lets you buy fractional shares for all stocks and exchange-traded funds so you can diversify your portfolio with ease and invest as much or as little as you want.

The M1 Plus advantage
When you join M1, you’ll unlock more perks and tools with three free months of M1 Plus. That means extra rewards, 1% cash back on purchases, our lowest Borrow rate1, access to Smart Transfers, and more. Plus, our checking accounts offer 1.70% APY2 on your balance, so you can grow wealth even when it’s not invested. With Schwab, you only get 0.18%. There’s no commitment and you can cancel anytime, but when it practically pays for itself, why would you?
