MEXC Launches Stocks Beta With Real Share Ownership And 0-Fee Access

MEXC, the digital asset exchange known for zero-fee crypto trading, has introduced a beta version of stock trading in partnership with licensed brokers. Announced on May 26, 2026, the service enables eligible users to buy and sell shares of real US-listed companies directly with USDT, hold actual shares, and receive dividend entitlements where applicable. During the launch phase, trading carries no platform fees.

According to MEXC, over 20,000 users have already participated in the public beta, reflecting strong initial demand. The official version is scheduled to launch next week.

Unlike tokenized stocks, synthetic assets, or contracts for difference that are common in crypto markets, MEXC's stock offering provides real market exposure through licensed brokerage partners. Users gain liquidity consistent with traditional stock markets and may receive corresponding dividend or distribution entitlements.

MEXC notes that the traditional route for crypto users to enter stock markets often involves fiat withdrawals, currency conversion, and cross-border transfers — each adding time and cost. By supporting USDT-based access and adding a zero-fee campaign during the launch phase, the exchange aims to reduce total expenses from funding to execution.

The platform also simplifies account management by bringing crypto and stock assets into a single interface. Users can view their overall positions and place orders on popular stocks without maintaining multiple accounts or transferring funds between platforms.

MEXC clarified that "0 fees" refers only to the platform's service charge; users may still incur SEC transaction fees, FINRA trading activity fees, exchange and market center fees, regulatory fees, and clearing fees. The service is available only in certain jurisdictions, and access may be restricted in countries where local laws prohibit it.
