What is Folionet?
Folionet is a US broker that offers individuals worldwide the ability to open an investment account in the US. Specifically, our mission is to give Latin Americans easy access to the largest stock market in the world. As a US financial institution, Folionet is regulated by FINRA and the SEC, and accounts are protected by the SIPC.
How Folionet Makes money?
Folionet’s main income is received from cash balances and debit balances. Cash balances are funds not invested in the account and debit balances are funds we provide to clients for margin operations. Also, for clients seeking personalized service and advice, Folionet Private Wealth Management offers estate management services, and therefore charges commissions and fees for those transactions (for more information visit /)
In addition, another income comes from the payment of the markets for the flow of trades that are made in the app. Also, every executed trade has a $0.98 transaction fee.
See Folionet Rates for additional information.
What institutions regulate Folionet?
Folionet is a service mark by Folionet Private Wealth Management, which is a registered and regulated broker of FINRA and SEC in the United States and is registered in the SIPC. Because Folionet is a mark and is in the United States, it is bound by the same entities that regulate Folionet Private Wealth Management. This means that both Folionet Private Wealth Management and Folionet clients have investment and capital security.

Folionet offers two types of accounts, each designed to suit your investment needs. Both of them allow you to trade with only a $0.98 processing fee.
Margin Accounts (Plus)
Investing on margin means that you are borrowing money from Folionet to buy stocks. This lets you invest more money (your own money plus borrowed money) for greater potential of gains or losses. It also gives you flexibility with your cash: If you see an opportunity in the market and you want to invest more, you can invest right away without needing to make a deposit from your bank.
When you open a Folionet margin account, you will receive extra buying power. This represents the money that you can borrow from us to invest.
What are the risks of margin?
With margin investing, the returns on any stocks bought on margin directly affect your account value, whatever they are positive or negative. If the stock loses value, the losses will be deducted from your account value – not the funds you borrowed – so it is possible for margin to increase your losses. The risks are resumed as follows:
- Interest Rates: they may vary in time (can go up or down). In case of a rise, the cost of the loan may go up in price.
- Stock Movement: if the shares in your portfolio substantially decrease in value, an alert can be triggered representing a margin call. You may need to sell positions to reduce the loan value.
What are the requirements to use margin in your account?
Federal regulators require that you have $2,000 in your account and a suitable investment profile to use margin. Suitability is determined by asking you a few questions about your experience, risk profile, among others.
You can enable margin by contacting our support team support@folionet.com
How do I pay for margin lending?
Margin accounts do not have fees. You only pay interest if you have invested all your cash and are therefore using margin lending. The charges for using margin lending will be deducted from your account monthly. The interest rate you will pay is indicated on this website and it’s prorated based on the number of days that margin funds are used.
For example, if you use $1,000 of margin and the interest rate is 9%, the daily interest will be calculated as follows:
- 1000*9%/360= $0,25 daily.
How do I know when I am using margin?
You will start using margin once the cash in your account has been fully invested. This means that if you have upgraded to a margin account and you have cash in your account, you will not start using margin right away.
For example, suppose that you have $2,500 in your account – $2,000 in stocks and $500 cash. If you buy an additional $1,000 of XYZ stock, you will use your $500 in remaining cash and the remaining $500 would be on margin.
Once you buy your first shares on margin, we will update your account display to show the amount of margin you are using. You will see a negative amount in the cash field. This will represent the borrowed amount.
How do I stop using margin?
There are two ways to stop using margin:
- First, you can deposit money into your account to reduce the margin you are borrowing. Using the previous example, you could stop using margin by depositing $500 in the account.
- Second, you can sell shares to reduce the amount of money you are borrowing. Using the previous example, you could sell $500 worth of shares and apply the cash to reduce your margin to zero. You can sell any position in your account since margin is a feature for your entire account.
Cash Accounts (Basic)
When you open a Folionet cash account, you will be able to place trades for only a $0.98 processing fee. You will not have access to the funds instantly when selling. Due to US regulation, funds will become available to use again after 48 business hours.

Supported Order Types
Folionet supports:
- Market orders.
- Limit orders.
- Stop orders.
How can you choose these types of orders?
- Navigate to the stocks detail page.
- Press the Trade button.
- Select the order type.
The different orders type will be briefly explained as follows:
Market Order
A market order is an order to trade shares at the current market price; without restrictions on the price or timeframe in which the order can be executed.
Additionally, you will be able to introduce market orders out of the trading hours. Nevertheless, these orders will be executed at the opening of the following trading day.
Limit Order
A limit order is an order either to buy or sell shares at a fixed price or better.
Buy Limit Order
A limit purchase order can only be executed at the limit or lower price. Your limit price should be the maximum price you want to pay per share.
Example (These examples are shown for illustrative purposes only)
ABC stock is currently trading in $20 per share, but you only want to pay $15 per share. You should set your limit price to $15.
Scenario 1: If ABC drops from $20 to $15 or lower, you will buy shares for $15 at most.
Scenario 2: If ABC does not drop to $15, your order will not be executed.
Sell Limit Order
A sell limit order can only be executed at the limit or higher price. There is no guarantee that a limit order will be executed.
Example (These examples are shown for illustrative purposes only)
ABC stock is currently trading in $20 per share, but you want to receive at least $25 per share. You should set your limit price to $25.
Scenario 1: If ABC rises from $20 to $25 or higher, your stocks will be sold at least $25.
Scenario 2: If ABC does not rise to $25, your order will not be executed.
Stop Order
A stop order is an order to buy or sell only after a certain price level (the stop level) has been reached. If stocks go down and the price is reached, stop orders help minimize losses by closing the position at the market price. Although stop orders are commonly used when selling securities, stop orders can also be used to buy shares.
Buy Stop Order
A Stop purchase order is used to buy shares for more than a certain price at which the investor thinks the share price will break a barrier to continue the increase. If the stock rises to your stop price, your buy stop order becomes a buy market order.
Example (These examples are shown for illustrative purposes only)
ABC stock is currently trading in $20 per share, but you want to wait to purchase ABC because you believe an upward trend could begin shortly after a rise in the price. Also, you think that if ABC reaches $24 it may go higher. Therefore, if you set up a stop price at $24, the order will be triggered after it reaches that level.
Scenario 1: If ABC rises to $24 or higher, your buy stop order becomes a buy market order and then the stock will be purchased at the following best price available.
Scenario 2: If ABC stays below $24, a market order is not executed, and no shares are purchased.
Sell Stop Order
A sell stop order allows you to set a stop price below the current price of the stock. If that stock falls to your stop price, your sell stop order becomes a sell market order.
Example (These examples are shown for illustrative purposes only)
ABC stock is currently trading in $20 per share. But you want to wait to sell ABC because you think it will rise. To protect yourself in case ABC begins falling, you can set your stop price to $15.
Scenario 1: If ABC falls to $15 or lower, your sell stop order becomes a sell market order and then the stock will be sold at the best price available after is triggered.
Scenario 2:If ABC stays at or above $15, a market order is not executed, and no shares will be sold.
