The designated stocks for the coupons include the top 100 US-listed companies and ETFs in terms of market capitalisation. Users can instantly redeem the coupon for fractional shares in the form of market orders during US stock trading hours, or at the opening of the next trading day if the redemption is submitted outside of trading hours. There is no limit to the number of coupons that a user can receive. The redeemed shares can be sold at any time, where all commissions and transaction-related fees will be waived for the sale orders of the fractional stock portion.
