Everything that makes buying stock for a kid a hassle — gone.
Simple
Choose Apple, Tesla, Nvidia, the S&P 500 ETF, or any company from our catalog. No financial expertise needed.
From $20 up. Add a personal note the child (or their parent) will see when the gift is opened.
Deliver instantly, or print a QR code to tuck into a birthday card. Send it to the child or straight to a parent.
A parent or guardian creates a free account, verifies once, and transfers the cash value to any supported bank or brokerage. No rush — gifts never expire.
Real people, real gifts
From the people sending Beestow gifts — and the ones receiving them.
For the recipient
Worried it'll be confusing for them? It isn't. No account required to receive — just a few taps.
They get an email, text, or QR code with your name and a message from you — it feels like a gift, not a link.
Free account via Google, Apple, or email. No brokerage account, no paperwork, no app to download.
The value tracks live with the stock price. They choose when to redeem — to any brokerage or bank, on their own timeline.
What their dashboard looks like
Built for trust
Beestow runs on regulated financial infrastructure — the same rails behind the apps you already use every day.
Payments
Card and bank payments run through a PCI-compliant payment processor used by household-name merchants. Your card number never touches Beestow's servers.
Payouts
When a gift is redeemed, its cash value moves by ACH through established US banking partners, straight to the brokerage or bank account you choose.
Account linking
When you link a brokerage or bank, it's through the same encrypted linking service the major consumer finance apps use — your login credentials are never shared with Beestow.
Beestow at a glance
Beestow is a registered California LLC. Recipients always receive cash at redemption, never securities.
Start a market-linked gift the day they're born — no account to open, no minimum to meet. A baby-shower gift no one else is giving.
Skip the custodial-account setup and give your child a gift linked to a company they recognize. You manage it on their behalf.
Give a gift that still means something at their next birthday — without needing any of their account details.
Birthdays, graduations, first communions, turning 18 — any milestone is a moment for a gift that can grow.
The cash value is based on the live price at the moment they choose to redeem — not when you send it. They control the timing and can wait for a recovery.
Yes. Beestow skips the custodial account entirely — no paperwork, no account minimum. You send a market-linked gift in about 60 seconds, and a parent or guardian helps the child claim and redeem the cash value when ready.
A custodial account requires opening and funding a brokerage account locked to the child until 18 or 21, often with ongoing fees. A Beestow gift is a prepaid gift linked to a stock's market performance — claimed in minutes, redeemable to any bank or brokerage, with no lock-up.
A parent or guardian creates a free account and claims on the child's behalf, then decides when to redeem the cash value.
No. You only need an email, a phone number, or a printed QR code. No brokerage details are required to send.
Gifts start at $20 plus a small flat service fee shown upfront. No ongoing fees that chip away at the gift.
The cash value is based on the live price at the moment they choose to redeem — not when you send it. Gifts never expire, so they can wait for a recovery.
