  1. Check the broker's website or platform: Start by logging into your account or visiting the broker's website. Look for information on fractional share investing or if the broker offers features like "fractional shares" or "fractional trading." Some brokers may prominently advertise this feature on their homepage or in their menu options.
  2. Contact customer support: If you are unable to find information on fractional share investing on the broker's website, reach out to their customer support team. They should be able to provide you with information on whether or not fractional shares are offered and how to access this feature.
  3. Read the broker's terms and conditions: Some brokers may have specific terms and conditions related to fractional share investing, so it's essential to carefully read through their policies and agreements. Look for any information on minimum investment amounts for fractional shares or any associated fees.
  4. Research online: You can also research and read reviews or articles about the broker to see if fractional share investing is mentioned as one of their offerings. This can give you a better idea of whether or not the broker provides this feature and how it is generally perceived by users.
  5. Compare with other brokers: If you are still unsure, consider comparing the broker with other competitors who are known to offer fractional share investing. This can help you determine if it is worth switching to a different broker that provides this feature if it is essential to your investing strategy.
