Credit to 1337 for pointing out Self Wealth seem to be matching stakes $0 trade until 04-01-2022, Credit to Raif pointing out ETFs only
Seems Stake has decided to give the $0 per trade to all users until 01 Jan 2022 ($3 per trade afterwards) on the ASX (Still $0 for US trades). This finally represents some decent competition for those in the ASX game (compared to CommBank etc). Use the referral links below to gain yourself a free US share (likely Gopro, but you might get lucky and get Nike).
Minimal starting stake is A$500 (as the stake is Chess-Sponsored / HIN)

Nice comparison of different brokers such as: SelfWealth, Pearler, Superhero, Think, Open. Stake is not mentioned as it's only been a product on the ASX for all for a day
From what was explained on the last page you will need to buy at least $500 of a stock for the first time (excluding brokerage, which is $0) as per ASX standard. This is called a “minimum marketable parcel”.
As for me I placed a market order buy yesterday on Qantas for $500. I not sure if it's the ASX or stake, but they will only sell whole units and not a fraction of a share like Wall Street. From this $500, I ended up with 100 shares at $4.95, with $5.00 returned to my balance ($495.00 total). I am a little confused why it allowed me to buy under $500, but just a warning if you are thinking to buy at market value, you may wish to buy more than $500 of the company in consideration of no fractional shares.
I have checked my Qantas buy from yesterday and now I can add $10 or $100 of buys as the $500 restriction is now removed. I also note then, if I want to invest in MMM, I will need to place a $500 buy with MMM and then I will be able to buy smaller amounts as above with Qantas.
Hoping someone can confirm this is the case, as I am still very new to ASX and the example is what I can see with the software / Stakes article
