Gold Finder Awards Badge
Finder Awards 2025 winner

There's no doubt Webull is one of the best all-round trading platforms available in Australia to date, with features that support both casual investors and active traders.


You can buy and sell ASX (CHESS-sponsored) shares, US equities, ETFs (with $0 brokerage), US options and fractional shares. The platform has also expanded its offerings to include shares/ETFs in Hong Kong and China (A-Shares).


While day traders will be happy with its in-depth market data and advanced charting tools, it's worth noting that the platform's list of tradable options are somewhat limited. For instance, Australian options are not available; only US options can be traded.

Pros

  • Cheap brokerage ($0 for ETFs)
  • In-built news platform and educational resources
  • Allows you to trade fractional shares
  • Auto-investing feature
  • Trade stocks from ASX, US and Hong Kong
  • Trade over 200 cryptocurrencies
  • In-depth market data

Cons

  • No Australian options
  • Limited global markets
  • Limited order types

Webull is a trading platform with no initial deposit requirements or commissions, making it quite beginner-friendly. Access to real-time market data and advanced tools will also appeal to more active traders and options traders.

  • Consider Webull if you want low fees on ASX and US equities or US options but don’t want to compromise on advanced trading tools.
  • Look elsewhere if you want to access Australian options or global markets outside the US or China.

Webull is best for: Casual and active traders

Webull's low-free trading and no minimum deposit requirements give newbies a platform to trade without high fees eating into their balances. Beginners can also develop trading skills through the demo account without risking their money.

Long-term investors will find Webull's zero commission ETF trades appealing alongside its auto-invest feature that lets you set recurring deposits into your ETF or stock of choice.

Meanwhile, active traders should find its advanced charts, indicators and screeners attractive.

What you can trade on Webull

  • US Stocks and ETFs
  • Australian Stocks and ETFs (ASX and Cboe)
  • US Options
  • Hong Kong stocks
  • Chinese A-Shares

Where Webull shines

Webull has some of the lowest fees in the industry, as well as no minimum deposits and $0 brokerage on Australian and US ETFs.

Plus there are no annual or inactivity fees. Fractional trading gives investors access to thousands of companies that might otherwise be out of reach. Webull also offers margin accounts.

Key features include:

  • Auto-investing: Set recurring deposits into stocks and ETFs
  • $0 commission ETFs: Pay zero brokerage fees when you purchase Australian or US ETF units
  • Market data access: You can access real-time market data including level 2 data and ASX live prices (subscription only)
  • Advanced charting: Customisable technical analysis charts with up to 60 technical signals
  • Stock and ETF screeners: Customisable screeners based on 40+ technical and fundamental signals

Where Webull falls short

Webull gets negative feedback from clients for a lack of quality customer service and for a slow money transfer process. Webull currently has a "bad" rating on TrustPilot, with an average review score of 1.4 out of 5, based on more than 300 reviews (last checked September 2025).

If you're looking to invest in Australian equities or assets like managed funds, futures, bonds or forex, you'll be forced to look elsewhere as these aren't offered by Webull.

It started out in 2017 in the US and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC). With its launch into Australia, it is now also licensed under ASIC (Australian Securities & Investments Commission).

Have you reviewed the Customer Reviews (as at December 2024) for WeBull on Trust Pilot?

What do you think?

Should these reviews raise “RED FLAGS” regarding WeBull?

Hi Choong,


Thanks for your comment. We do address some of these concerns in the section “Where Webull falls short”, but I’ll add some context around its TrustPilot reviews.

Hi Steve,


You can deposit funds into your Webull account via bank transfer. If you make a profit, you can then also withdraw the funds to your bank account. Please note that the bank account you use for both deposits and withdrawals must match the registered name of your Webull account.


In terms of tax, Webull may automatically withhold tax on US securities dividends, but not capital gains. You can read more about that on Webull’s site. While you can register your Australian tax file number (TFN) with Webull, you are responsible for meeting your own tax obligations.


However, this information is for general purposes only and is not tax advice. It’s important that you seek your own independent tax advice.


Thanks,


Tom

Webull may be great product, but at this stage you can do trading only on mobile app not on web. People do trading on a big screen not tiny mobile screen. They have to provide this feature ASAP.


I won’t be signing up until I can do on big screen.

Hi Koon,


Thanks for your feedback!


Webull does offer a desktop trading app for Mac, Windows and Linux devices.


I hope this helps.


Cheers,
