Your questions, answered
To be eligible, existing CommSec customers must:
Open one of the following CommSec trading products which you do not currently hold between 1 September 2026 and 30 September 2026: International Shares, CommSec Margin Loan and/or Exchange Traded Options; and
Settle your new trading account through either a CommSec Margin Loan or a Commonwealth Direct Investment Account (CDIA).
We’ll automatically apply the $0 brokerage on the 30 trades to eligible accounts from 1 October 2026 once your eligibility for the offer has been confirmed on 30 September 2026.
No brokerage fee will be shown on the CommSec trade confirmations issued for applicable trades under this offer.
Commonwealth Direct Investment Account (CDIA) is a cash account you can use to settle and pay for trades you make. It’s free to sign up and involves no monthly costs. It also gives you our lowest brokerage rate when you trade online after the offer finishes.
A CommSec Margin Loan is a flexible investment facility that allows you to borrow funds, using your existing investment portfolio as security or by combining your own cash with the money we lend you to invest.
Once the $0 brokerage on the 30 trades has been used, or it expires on 31 March 2027, our standard brokerage rates will apply.
