Coinbase Brings US Equities to UK Users with 24/5 Trading

Coinbase has expanded its 'Everything Exchange' strategy by launching US stock trading for eligible UK customers. The rollout starts on August 6 and gives users access to nearly 4,000 American equities through the Coinbase app.

The service includes commission-free trading and fractional shares from £1, allowing customers to fund stock purchases using British pounds or USDC held in their accounts.

Coinbase received approval to offer stock trading in the UK last month and plans to introduce tokenized stocks later. Those products may track US shares and include rights such as dividend payments.
