Germany-based fintech, Upvest , is set to provide Plum , the smart money app, with its investment API, enabling the latter to expand its range of investment opportunities to EU customers. Following this partnership, Plum will be able to extend its services, offering direct and fractional investments in EUR-denominated ETFs and stocks to its users across all nine EU markets.

These markets include France, Ireland, Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Cyprus, and Greece. As a result, Plum aims to enhance the investment experience for its EU user base. Through Upvest’s integrated exchange and custody connectivity for European flow, all orders will be handled by Upvest. This includes order placement, settlement, and custody services, providing a simplified end-to-end process.

Additionally, Upvest will also enable Plum to offer real fractional shares to its end users, particularly appealing to retail investors. This approach allows investors to become the legal owners of the shares, benefiting from dividend rights and other corporate actions.
