Hapi is an investment app for people in Latin America and Spain to buy U.S. stocks, ETFs, and cryptocurrencies. The company says Hapi Securities LLC is registered with the SEC and is a FINRA and SIPC member, and it offers 24/5 trading plus fractional investing from US$5. Hapi also provides thematic portfolios and an AI portfolio educational tool for self-directed investors.
Hapi Corp primarily focuses on the financial services industry, specifically as a broker-dealer providing a platform for investing in U.S. stocks, ETFs, and cryptocurrencies, with an emphasis on making investment accessible for individuals in Latin America.
Hapi Corp faces competition from several notable players in the financial technology sector in Latin America. Key competitors include:
Trii: A Colombian firm that offers a platform for investing in U.S. stocks. Trii focuses on providing a user-friendly experience and aims to attract younger investors in the region.
Tyba: Operated by the Credicorp group, Tyba is another competitor that provides investment services in Latin America. It emphasizes educational resources and tools for users to make informed investment decisions.
Hapi Corp differentiates itself by not charging commissions for trades, instead earning micro-commissions from U.S. exchanges like Nasdaq and NYSE. This model allows Hapi to operate under the supervision of the U.S. stock market regulator, potentially enhancing user trust and accessibility compared to its competitors.
