Toss Securities Launches 'Receive One Stock as a Gift' Event

[Asia Economy Reporter Minji Lee] Toss Securities announced on the 8th that it will start Season 3 of the ‘Receive 1 Share of Stock as a Gift’ event. This is the third event prepared following the success of two events held in the first half of this year.

‘Receive 1 Share of Stock as a Gift’ is an event where customers who open a new account receive one share of stock. When opening a securities account in the stock tab within the Toss app, customers can receive one share randomly selected from 18 stocks including Naver, Kakao, and Hyundai Motor Company.

Toss Securities recorded explosive growth by surpassing 3.5 million new accounts within three months of its official launch on March 15. Since then, it has continued its growth trend with an average of more than 1,600 new accounts opened daily. In particular, through the previous two ‘Receive 1 Share of Stock as a Gift’ events, it coined the new term ‘Tospick’ among investors, sparking a trend of stock-giving events in the domestic securities industry.

A representative from Toss Securities said, “Thanks to the support from customers for the ‘Receive 1 Share of Stock as a Gift’ event in the first half of this year, we have prepared the third event. Going forward, Toss Securities will continue to provide shareholder experiences in various ways as a securities company that grows together with its customers.”

Aiming to provide an easy and intuitive stock investment service centered on users, Toss Securities continuously communicates with customers to enhance its services. After the release of the MTS, it reflected user feedback to create new features such as ‘Community,’ where investors can exchange opinions, and ‘Price Alert Settings,’ which allow investing at desired prices.

Toss Securities is preparing to launch overseas stock investment services next month, and next year plans to redefine customers’ diverse investment experiences through robo-advisor-based asset management services.
