Transferring Assets From Robinhood To Webull

Both Webull and Robinhood support the ACATS transfer service (Automated Customer Account Transfer Service) to move eligible assets.

Robinhood charges a $100 fee for outgoing full or partial ACATS transfers. This fee may be reimbursed by Webull (see “Transfer Fees & Bonuses” above).

Handling of Different Asset Types

• Whole Shares: Transfer normally via ACATS.
• Fractional Shares: Cannot transfer. Robinhood automatically sells your fractional shares; the cash proceeds will be sent to Webull in a residual sweep, often a few days to 2 weeks after the main transfer. You don’t need to initiate this—sold fractions and late-arriving dividends will transfer automatically as they settle.
• Options: Only options contracts not expiring within 7 business days can be transferred. For options expiring in the next 7 business days, close or let them expire in Robinhood before starting the transfer.
• Cryptocurrency: Crypto cannot transfer via ACATS. Crypto assets held in Robinhood are either automatically liquidated during the ACATS process or may be sold manually by you before the transfer. The resulting cash will be transferred to your Webull account.
• Other Unsupported Assets (Will Not Transfer):
  • Mutual funds (neither platform supports these)
  • Bonds
  • Futures contracts
  • Foreign securities not supported by Webull
  • Robinhood Cash Card balances (must be withdrawn)

You can send your crypto balance from Robinhood to another wallet or platform using the Crypto Wallet feature—but note that Webull, as of 2025, does not support direct crypto deposits.

Assets That Cannot Be Transferred

• Fractional Shares: Liquidated by Robinhood; proceeds delivered to Webull as cash.
• Crypto Assets: Must sell or withdraw (not supported via ACATS to Webull).
• Options Contracts Expiring Within 7 Business Days: Must close or let expire before transfer.
• Mutual Funds/Bonds/Futures: Not supported by Webull.

Note: Robinhood has up to 15 calendar days to transmit cost basis and tax information to Webull after the asset transfer is complete. In the interim, you may see missing or zeroed cost basis in Webull for recent arrivals. This does not impact your holdings; you’ll receive updated tax records automatically.

Residual sweeps (including late-arriving dividends, unsettled sales, or refunds) may continue to move from Robinhood to Webull for up to 6 months after the main transfer completes. If funds unexpectedly appear in Webull after your move, this is normal!

1. Navigate to the account page by tapping on the Webull icon in the middle of the bottom navigation menu
2. Tap on "Transfers" at the top

9. Indicate whether you want a full or partial transfer
10. Click on the “Submit Stock Transfer Request” button

How long does it take? Most transfers are completed within 3–5 business days. Some situations may take slightly longer if there are residual assets or if there are special review requirements.

After The Transfer: What to Expect

• Log into Webull and verify all assets transferred. Check for missing or pending assets (fractions/cash may be pending in a residual sweep).
• Cost basis/tax info may take up to 15 days to populate.
• Enable extended-hours or 24/5 trading if desired in the Webull app.
• Set up margin if needed (if you had a margin account at Robinhood).
• Monitor for late-arriving dividends or cash. Residual sweeps continue up to 6 months after your transfer.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Q: Can I transfer less than $500?
  A: No. Webull does not accept ACATS transfers below $500 in total value.
• Q: Do I need to sell fractional shares or crypto myself?
  A: No for fractions—Robinhood sells these automatically during transfer. For crypto, you can sell manually before your transfer or let Robinhood liquidate it as part of an outgoing ACATS request.
• Q: How are taxes handled for transferred assets?
  A: Robinhood will send your cost basis and tax-lot info to Webull within 15 days of transfer completion for your next tax season’s reporting.
• Q: What if something went wrong or not all assets show up?
  A: Contact Webull support first—they can coordinate with Robinhood. Many missing assets are simply pending residual sweeps or delayed cost basis data.
