Coinbase Launches Zero-Commission U.S. Stock Options Trading on Main Platform

Coinbase launches zero-commission U.S. stock options, adding call and put trading with native risk and margin tools alongside spot crypto. Coinbase has launched zero-commission equity options trading on its main platform, expanding the range of traditional financial products available alongside cryptocurrencies in what the company describes as a broader push toward a super app. Stock Options Added to Coinbase Platform According to BSCN, the new offering allows users to trade call and put options on select popular U.S. stocks without paying commissions. The launch brings equity derivatives directly onto Coinbase's main platform rather than requiring users to access a separate trading service. The stock options offering also includes native risk models and margin management. These features are designed to support options trading while allowing users to manage the associated positions and margin requirements within the same platform. Traditional Derivatives and Crypto Trading Coinbase's latest addition allows traders to access traditional stock derivatives alongside spot cryptocurrency trading. Users can therefore trade options on selected U.S. equities while continuing to trade spot crypto assets through the same platform. The combination of equity options, risk management and margin functionality represents an expansion of Coinbase's platform beyond spot cryptocurrency markets. The company is positioning the broader product offering as part of its push toward a super app that brings multiple financial trading capabilities together in one place. The launch specifically covers call and put options on select popular U.S. stocks, with zero-commission trading and Coinbase's native risk models and margin management forming part of the new offering.
