Investing / CommSec Pocket

Start small with CommSec Pocket

Using CommSec Pocket, you can start investing with as little as $50 and build a portfolio over time.

Choose from 7 themed options and invest in something that appeals to you like tech, sustainability leaders or the biggest 200 companies on the Aussie market.

You’ll gain hands-on experience as an investor and CommSec will help you along the way with bite-sized tips, videos and articles to teach you all about the share market.

How it works

When you invest via CommSec Pocket, you’ll be buying units in an Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). ETFs are funds that trade on a stock exchange, just like shares – the difference is that an ETF represents an investment in a selection of companies and assets, while a share represents an investment in just one company. One ETF can give you exposure to a whole diverse portfolio.

Every ETF in CommSec Pocket has a theme. See below for all the options you can choose from, covering different industries, markets or countries.
