What is a fractional share?

Fractional shares are pieces of a whole share.

Stash lets you purchase fractional shares of ETFs and single stocks to help create a diversified portfolio.

Fractional shares offer investors the chance to own a piece of a stock or investment in a specific industry with a smaller amount of money than they’d need to buy a full share.
