What is First Share ?
First Share makes participating in company direct investing programs easy and affordable for new investors.
Most companies require investors to already own at least one share of its stock before being eligible to participate in the company’s direct investing program. Purchasing one share of stock via traditional brokerage houses and having that share registered in your name can be cost prohibitive.
The First Share program is a referral program which refers the requests of members who wish to purchase shares to members willing to sell shares. First Share maintains a database of members who own shares in the companies listed in the First Share program, and who have offered to sell single shares to other members.
Our program is simple, effective and allows you, the investor, to take control of your own investing future and avoid brokerage fees and commissions.
