Automate your Public trades

Public charges no broker commission on stock and ETF options and offers per-contract rebates of $0.06 to $0.18 through its Options Rebate Program. The rebate varies by underlying, whether the order is placed via API, and monthly volume. Combined with a fast account setup and live P&L synced into RelayDesk, it is a solid fit for options-heavy automated strategies.

What's included

Everything included

Full-featured automation. Not just a basic order bridge.

No Broker Commission on Stock and ETF Options

Public charges no broker commission on stock and ETF options. Standard regulatory pass-through fees (ORF, OCC, SEC) apply as they do at every broker, but there is no additional markup per contract.

Per-Contract Rebates

Public's Options Rebate Program pays $0.06 to $0.18 back per stock or ETF options contract. The exact amount depends on the underlying security, whether the order is placed via API, and your monthly trading volume.

Live Portfolio View

Your Public positions are always visible in RelayDesk. Signals automatically account for existing positions so you never accidentally double-in.

Real-Time P&L Streaming

See live unrealized and realized P&L per strategy as trades execute. RelayDesk aggregates position data from Public and displays it by bot.

Risk-Bounded Execution

Set position size limits once and RelayDesk enforces them on every signal. Oversized entries are automatically scaled down or rejected before they reach Public, with no manual monitoring required.

Always-Current Account State

RelayDesk maintains a live view of your Public positions and balances. Every fill reflects immediately, and signals are always evaluated against your actual account state rather than a stale snapshot.
