Acorns and Stash are the two leading micro-investing applications. Acorns automatically rounds up your daily card purchases to invest the spare change. Stash helps you handpick fractional stocks with guided education.
Verdict
Use Acorns for a completely automated “set-it-and-forget-it” savings process. Use Stash if you want to actively select fractional shares but still need assistance and guidance.
