The company operates in the financial services market, offering access to New Zealand, US, and Australian share markets with no minimum investment, making it accessible to a wide range of clients, from seasoned investors to beginners and even kids.

Sharesies makes money through a subscription-based model. Users can choose a monthly plan that can help them save on fees. The platform also offers an auto-invest feature for regular investing and a gift feature to help someone special build their portfolio.
