Commission-free trading platform for investments

About

Robinhood offers a platform for trading stocks, options, ETFs, and cryptocurrencies, aiming to make investing accessible and affordable for everyone. Users can trade without paying traditional fees and can invest in fractional shares, allowing them to buy portions of expensive stocks. The company generates revenue through a premium subscription service, interest on uninvested cash, and rebates from trading venues. Robinhood's goal is to democratize investing and provide opportunities typically reserved for institutional investors, such as IPO access.
