Insights

Fixed Income Product Strategist

Webull adding corporate bond trading broadens retail access to fixed income with low spreads and clear listing criteria.

Webull launched corporate bond trading on desktop and mobile on Oct. 16, 2025, allowing U.S. customers to buy and sell individual corporate bonds that are S&P rated and meet specified liquidity and credit criteria. The offering covers both investment-grade and high-yield bonds, and the platform sets transaction spreads at 0.10% with a $10 trade minimum, creating a simple cost structure for bond purchases.

This move converts a traditionally wholesale market feature into a retail product by combining electronic execution, screening for credit/liquidity, and a fixed fee model. Key dependencies include the sustained availability of adequately liquid bond inventories that meet Webull’s listing rules and the platform’s ability to route and price trades competitively at scale. Execution quality and secondary-market liquidity will determine how attractive the offering proves in practice.

Watch for uptake metrics and bookmarks such as volume of corporate bond trades, the split between investment-grade and high-yield execution, and any published execution-quality stats over the next 6–12 months. These signals will show whether the low-fee model translates into meaningful retail participation and whether Webull maintains competitive spreads as volumes grow.

Investors can now trade corporate bonds seamlessly on Webull's desktop and mobile platforms

NEW YORK, Oct. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Webull (NASDAQ: BULL), an online investment platform, today announced the launch of corporate bond trading for U.S. customers. Investors are now able to buy and sell individual corporate bonds directly on Webull's desktop and mobile platforms.

This expansion builds on Webull's previous rollout of U.S. government bonds, marking a key milestone in the company's fixed income strategy and reaffirms Webull's commitment to maintaining one of the most competitive pricing models in the industry. With corporate bond transaction spreads set at just 0.10% (with a $10/trade minimum), Webull positions itself among the most cost-effective platforms for retail access to the corporate bond market. Predictable interest payments and principal returned at maturity also make corporate bonds attractive to long-term investors who value stability and steady returns.

"Corporate bonds are a key part of a diversified portfolio, and we're proud to make them more accessible," said Anthony Denier, Group President and U.S. CEO of Webull. "Since early 2025, we've expanded our fixed income offerings to include U.S. Treasuries and fractional bond trading. As more investors look to individual bonds for diversification, income, and capital preservation, we're continuing to deliver a seamless, best-in-class experience across both mobile and desktop."

Webull's offerings include investment-grade and high-yield corporate bonds, all denominated in U.S. dollars and rated by S&P. Bonds must meet liquidity and credit quality criteria to be listed.
