Public.com, operated by Public Holdings, Inc., is an American financial services company that offers a platform for investing in stocks, ETFs, cryptocurrencies, U.S. Treasuries, and alternative assets like art and collectibles. Founded in 2019, the company's mission is to make the public markets work for all people. It differentiates itself with a social-first approach, allowing users to follow other investors, share trade ideas, and participate in community discussions. Public.com notably abandoned the controversial Payment for Order Flow (PFOF) revenue model in 2021, opting for an optional tipping feature and a "Public Premium" subscription service.
