They are not charging what brokers do. 0.5% for orders up to $3000 plus an additional 0.1 % for orders over $3000. For small investors this is much cheaper than going through a broker. Sharesies is not designed for the rest of you.

Then they will just have to charge what the current brokers do to remain competitive. But for buy/hold pundits this will be great.
