Transfer your portfolio, right on your phone.
If you have investments with another brokerage, you can easily transfer them over to Public without selling your eligible whole share stock* positions.
Download the Public app and once your account is set up, go to your Settings. In the “Account” section, you’ll see an option to transfer your stocks to Public.
Get StartedSecure Transfer
This process is called an ACAT and is the industry standard for transferring stocks. Think of it as a wire for stocks.
Seamless And Fast
Submit a request to transfer in less than a minute. Most transfers are completed within a few days (but can take up to 7-10 business days to fully complete).
Transfer From Any Broker
Whether you're leaving Robinhood, M1 Finance, WeBull, Charles Schwab, TD Ameritrade or any other US-based broker that offers ACAT-eligible transfer, we can help.
No Transfer Fees (and we cover yours)
Public charges no fees for incoming transfers. If your current brokerage charges you on the way out, we’ll even cover the fee if your incoming account is over $500.
Transfer to Public and get paid.
Moving investments to Public is quick, convenient, and secure. Our in-app tool allows you to easily transfer your account to Public directly from your phone.
