Especially the ones who are impossible to shop for.
They don't need another candle or sweater. Stock is the one gift they'd never buy themselves — and it actually does something after you give it.
Gift them something linked to the companies they work with every day. Apple, Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon — they'll get it immediately.
Starting a career, building savings, figuring out money. A stock gift is the most useful thing you can give someone at this stage.
No custodial account required. Anyone can receive a Beestow gift. A parent or guardian can claim on a minor's behalf if needed.
Simple
Apple, Tesla, Nvidia, Amazon, Microsoft, SPY — browse the full catalog and choose the one that fits.
From $20 up. Add a personal holiday message — they'll see it when they open the gift.
Deliver instantly by email or text, or generate a printable QR code to include in a physical card.
The recipient creates a free account in seconds, verifies their ID once, links a supported brokerage or bank account, and receives cash via ACH.
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.
No return lines
There's nothing to return. The value is tracked — when they're ready to cash out, they request a payout and receive cash within 1–3 business days.
The value tracks the real stock price
Gift $100 of Apple today. If Apple is up when they redeem, they get more than you gave. There's a live connection to the company throughout.
Works with any brokerage or bank
Fidelity, Schwab, E*TRADE, Vanguard, Merrill Edge, IBKR, Wealthfront, or any bank account. They choose where the cash lands.
Last-minute friendly
Send in 60 seconds from any device. Email delivery is instant — no shipping, no tracking, no last-minute panic.
What if the stock drops?
Value is based on the live price at the moment they choose to redeem — not when you send it. They control the timing, so they can wait for a recovery.
