Written by Tradier Inc. | Aug 19, 2025 6:53:05 PM

Got long equity positions just sitting in your portfolio? Now you can lend them out and earn interest daily without selling a single share or changing your strategy. With the latest Tradier Brokerage web2.0 release, we’re excited to introduce the Fully Paid Securities Lending (FPSL) Program, designed for traders and investors to get more out of their existing portfolios.

What Is Fully Paid Securities Lending?
FPSL allows you to potentially earn extra income from your fully paid long equity and ETF positions by lending out your shares to borrowers without giving up ownership or limiting your trading flexibility.

Who Can Participate?
FPSL is available to eligible margin and cash account holders who own fully paid securities. 

How It Works
When market demand for certain stocks rises—especially those in high demand for short selling borrowers pay lending fees, generating income that’s shared with you.

Key Benefits

  • Earn Extra from the Stocks You Already Own
    Turn your long equity holdings into interest that accrues daily and pays out monthly.
  • No Impact on Your Trading Activity
    You retain full control, buy, sell, or adjust positions as usual.

How to Get Started

  1. Log in to your Tradier web platform
  2. Navigate to Account Management
  3. Opt in to the Fully Paid Securities Lending Program and review the Master Securities Lending Agreement (MSLA)
