Charlotte, North Carolina - August 10, 2016 — Tradier Brokerage Inc., a leading brokerage service company, and Equities.com, the emerging growth financial media and investor community, announced today a partnership to allow investors to conduct stock trading via Equities.com for a monthly subscription fee of $29.95 per month with no commissions or hidden fees. (see disclaimer at bottom of the page) As part of the arrangement, Equities.com, a destination for avid investors, will serve as the destination portal for unlimited trading in U.S. equities including the NYSE, NASDAQ, and BATS listed companies.

Given Tradier's goal of democratizing and unbundling traditional trading, its partnership with Equities.com provides an ideal outlet to redefine trading by providing access to a service on one nimble platform. For the first time, users will have the ability to execute a stock transaction in one place via the Equities.com news portal and investor community. Investors will have the ability to read about emerging growth companies and key trends and subsequently transact an equities trade. This service will be made available via Equities.com in the fourth quarter of 2016. Equities.com is accepting pre-signups at http://trade-equities.online.

"If you trade more than six times per month, you're throwing money away on commission based trading fees," said, Enzo Villani, CEO of Equities.com. "Equities.com joined forces with Tradier to make trading more accessible by offering our investor community a monthly flat-fee trading cost. We are thrilled to have partnered with Tradier given their leadership position in API-based trading solutions."

"Equities.com was the perfect partner for this endeavor given its demographics. They will use the power of their investor community to bring better pricing and unlimited trading to the avid, self-directed investor," said Steve Ehrlich, CEO of Tradier Inc.

According to Aite Group, about a quarter of all U.S. adults with internet access are retail online traders, and an additional 6 percent are professionals, for a total U.S. individual trading population of 54 million.
