ShareBuilder

Capital One ShareBuilder is an online brokerage firm with its headquarters in Seattle, Washington. Investors can easily buy stocks, bonds, options, mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds as partial shares via Automatic Investing and PortfolioBuilder. Real-time trading is also available online, on mobile devices, and via telephone. ShareBuilder provides an award-winning toolset, extensive research and customer service, but does not offer high-end analysis tools. President Daniel Greenshields has overseen the company as it transitioned from an independent firm into part of ING Direct, which is now Capital One 360.

Trading

Freedom to do it your way. At ShareBuilder, you can trade what you want, the way you want. Stocks, ETFs, and mutual funds—place an order when the time is right. You're in control.

Invest for Less

Online trades are just $6.95, but options, mutual funds, and low-priced securities may be extra. See all pricing & rates for details.

Flexible Orders

Choose from market, limit, stop-loss, trailing stops and more. Enter up to six orders at once with Multiple Order Entry form.

Trade Your Way

Place a trade from website or on the go using mobile apps for iPhone, iPad, Android, and Kindle Fire.

Options & Margin

Are you ready to invest at the next level? Options give advanced investors additional opportunities for potentially rewarding returns. Looking for more buying power?
Trade on margin—check out rates.

Express Funding

Want to buy securities immediately but don't have all the necessary funds in your ShareBuilder account? Express Funding can make it happen.

Automatic Investing

Automatic Investing at ShareBuilder allows you to make dollar-based investments. Purchase stocks, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and mutual funds that you select, on a schedule that you choose.

PortfolioBuilder

Design your own portfolio of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that align to your investing style. Once you've built your portfolio, buy the whole thing with a click. All for just $18.95 commission.

Your Style

You can align investments to your style, investing as little as $200. Just enter the dollar amount you’ll invest and select your investment style to view available investments. PortfolioBuilder then distributes money across your investments. Don’t know your style? Use Investment Style Questionnaire to find out. Learn more about the PortfolioBuilder methodology.

Dollar-based Investing

It's just like it sounds – rather than defining a number of shares to buy, you tell us a whole dollar amount that you’d like to invest. We’ll subtract the commission and purchase as many shares as possible, including partial shares.

One Low Price

Your customized portfolio includes 6–8 ETFs for a flat $18.95 commission. That’s as little as $2.36 commission each, no matter how much money you’re investing. We place all orders the next trading day right when the market opens. If you choose to buy or sell individual ETFs in your portfolio standard trading costs apply. See pricing & rates for more details.

100% No-load Mutual Funds

Mutual Funds with no transaction fees

$0 per trade
$0 per automatic investment

Buy, sell or exchange mutual funds in these and many other families for no more than the price of the shares. That way, every dime is working for you.

Mutual Funds with low transaction fees

$19.95 per trade

Sure there is a transaction fee for these funds, but they include some well-known names. Since they are also no-load, more of your money stays hard at work.
