July 10, 2026 – NEW YORK, NY – Apex Fintech Solutions Inc. (“Apex”), the infrastructure powering modern investing, today announced it serves as the custodian and clearing broker for Gemini’s newly launched U.S. stock trading service, enabling Gemini customers in qualifying U.S. jurisdictions to trade equities alongside their existing crypto and prediction markets activity, all within a single platform.
The collaboration marks another major milestone in Gemini’s evolution into an all-in-one super app. Customers can now trade thousands of U.S. exchange-listed securities right from the Gemini app, with Nasdaq serving as an official market data provider and Apex acting as the custodian and clearing broker.¹
Gemini, which received FINRA approval to operate a broker-dealer in 2022, has updated its registration to operate as an introducing broker, allowing it to introduce customers to transactions in NMS securities for execution and clearance by Apex. In April, Gemini secured a Derivatives Clearing Organization (DCO) license from the CFTC, giving it in-house control over clearing and settlement for its derivatives products. Combined with its Designated Contract Market (DCM) license, this stock trading launch is another critical step on Gemini’s path to operating a full-stack regulated marketplace spanning across multiple product offerings, including crypto spot, prediction markets, and derivatives. The integration leverages Apex’s AscendOS™ technology platform, purpose-built for the demands of modern digital investing at scale.
“Gemini customers want crypto, stocks, and prediction markets in one place. Gemini is delivering that,” said Bill Capuzzi, CEO of Apex Fintech Solutions. “Our real-time infrastructure and decades of custody and clearing experience give them the foundation to make it happen. We’re excited to support what they’re building.”
Customers will continue to access and manage their investments through the familiar Gemini interface, now with equities seamlessly alongside their existing holdings. The collaboration supports real-time processing and the scalable architecture needed to serve Gemini’s growing user base, with security protocols and infrastructure designed for high-volume trading environments.
AscendOS™, Apex’s proprietary technology platform, is designed specifically for the demands of modern digital investing platforms. The system provides the real-time processing, scalable architecture, and comprehensive API capabilities that enable rapid feature development without compromising on regulatory compliance or security. The alliance also positions Gemini to expand its product offerings over time, with access to multiple asset classes, a wide range of account types, 24×5 trading capabilities, and more.
This collaboration reinforces Apex’s position as the infrastructure provider of choice for growth-oriented fintech companies seeking to expand their investment offerings. Apex supports over 40 million accounts and more than $250 billion in assets under custody across 200+ platforms — processing more than 800 million trades in 2025 alone — providing the tools and services that enable clients to launch, scale, and support digital investing.
