We're all searching for the perfect gift, especially for the children in our lives. Most times you have to settle -- for something that's just okay. Not this year.

How Custodial Accounts Work: EASY!

  1. Open custodial account – if you have the child's SSN, it only takes 5 minutes
  2. Deposit funds – from your paycheck or bank account, automatically if you like
  3. Manage account & teach child – explain how investing works, using the account and ShareBuilder tools
  4. Hand off control at adulthood – child has learned to invest on their own
You already know how easy ShareBuilder makes your investing. That makes it a great place for a custodial account, plus you know the child will have the tools to become a responsible investor. That's a much better gift than you'd find in a store.

If you are a Costco member and make one trade, we’ll automatically add $55 to the account. Please use the promotion code CSTOCKGIFT07 when you open the account.
