Kiwoom Securities said on the 3rd that it has partnered with KakaoBank to launch a stock account opening service. By accessing the securities firm's stock account opening service through KakaoBank, users can open a Kiwoom Securities stock account remotely.
Kiwoom Securities signed a strategic business agreement (MOU) with KakaoBank in April to enhance customers' investment experience, and this service is part of that effort.
An event will be held to coincide with the service launch. Customers who participate can receive 10,000 Kiwoom points, a three-month discount on domestic stock online fees, $33 in support funds for U.S. stock transactions and three months of free fees.
A Kiwoom Securities official said, "This event is designed so that customers starting domestic and overseas stock transactions for the first time can enjoy tangible benefits," adding, "Through the partnership with KakaoBank, more customers will be able to experience an easy and rational investment environment."
