Gate has officially launched Japanese stock trading, initially offering around 300 stocks listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE), further expanding its global equity market coverage. Japanese stock trading is now available on Gate Web, with the feature coming soon to the Gate App. Users can trade Japanese stocks directly on Gate using USDT, without the need to open a separate traditional Japanese brokerage account or convert funds into Japanese yen.

The approximately 300 Japanese stocks available at launch are listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE), covering markets including the Prime Market. The selection focuses on representative stocks with relatively large market capitalizations, strong liquidity, and high market attention, including Toyota Motor (7203.P), Sony Group (6758.P), SoftBank Group (9984.P), Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (8306.P), Nintendo (7974.P), and Tokyo Electron (8035.P). Moving forward, Gate will continue to expand its Japanese stock coverage based on market demand, providing users with access to a broader range of quality assets.

In terms of trading functionality, Japanese stocks share the same stock account and related trading capabilities as Gate’s existing U.S., Hong Kong, and Korean stock services. Users can view market data, buy and sell stocks, close positions, modify or cancel orders, manage holdings, and review transaction history within the same account. Japanese stocks support intraday trading from 09:00 to 11:30 and 12:30 to 15:25 Japan Time (00:00 to 02:30 and 03:30 to 06:25 UTC). New orders are not supported during the midday break or after the market closes. Japanese stock prices, position values, and profit and loss are displayed in JPY, while trading funds and fees are settled in USDT in accordance with Gate’s applicable rules.

As part of its broader stock business, Gate continues to strengthen unified trading infrastructure across major global stock markets. The platform has now established a 24/7 trading service covering four core markets: U.S. stocks, Hong Kong stocks, Korean stocks, and Japanese stocks. Gate supports more than 10,000 U.S. stocks and ETFs, over 1,500 Hong Kong stocks, more than 1,000 Korean stocks, and around 300 Japanese stocks, providing access to more than 12,800 stocks and ETFs globally. 

Gate offers zero trading fees for eligible U.S. stocks and ETFs, while supporting fractional share trading starting from 0.01 shares, stock dividends, cross-broker transfers for U.S. and Hong Kong stocks, and corporate actions including stock splits and reverse splits, further enhancing the stock investment experience.

Building on this foundation, Gate has developed a product matrix covering different investment stages and asset types, including Pre-IPOs, IPO Access, and gStocks tokenized stocks. These products provide users with diversified ways to participate in pre-IPO opportunities, public offerings, and tokenized asset trading.

The launch of Japanese stock trading not only expands Gate’s global equity market coverage but also demonstrates the platform’s capabilities in connecting traditional finance with digital assets and building a multi-asset trading ecosystem. Leveraging its established digital asset infrastructure, Gate is bringing more stocks, ETFs, IPOs, and tokenized assets into a unified trading ecosystem, lowering the barriers to cross-market asset allocation. Going forward, Gate will accelerate its expansion across major global markets and quality assets, deepen the integration of traditional finance and digital assets, and build a one-stop multi-asset platform covering more markets, assets, and investment scenarios, providing global users with broader and more efficient asset allocation opportunities.
