We are BUX
How it all started
We launched the first BUX trading app back in September 2014, with the idea to make stock trading easy, affordable and exciting for everyone. Back then, we were a team of 15 people with a handful of early adopters. Since then, we’ve achieved a lot.
From an App to a community
The achievement we're most proud of is building the BUX community, helping us to bridge the financial literacy gap and democratize the fintech sector. Our community provides constant feedback that inspires us to create more products, streamline processes and launch new ways for our users to build long-term wealth.
Exciting, isn't it?
