Your money stays at CommSec. Stock Unlock adds the analytics layer for smarter portfolio decisions.

No credit card required. Works with standard trading accounts and SMSF accounts.

Common Portfolio Workflow Gaps for CommSec Investors

These are common analytics and reporting workflows investors often ask to improve.

Performance analysis depth can vary by workflow

CommSec provides core portfolio value views, but many investors want deeper return analysis with clearer cash-flow context.

Total-return context often requires additional analysis

Your P&L can look misleading when dividends aren't included in performance calculations. A stock that's down 5% but paid 8% in dividends? CommSec makes it look like a loss.

International shares on a completely separate platform

CommSec International (powered by Interactive Brokers) is a separate login and platform. Seeing ASX and US holdings together can require multiple views. Stock Unlock combines everything in one view.

Export/reporting workflows can require multiple steps

CommSec only lets you export 12 months of data at a time. Stock Unlock connects to CommSec and imports your current holdings automatically. You can also manually add historical transactions or use CSV import for complete records.

Keep CommSec. Upgrade Your Investment Workflow.

Trade and custody stay at CommSec. Stock Unlock adds portfolio health, dividend forecasting, and investment discovery in one place.

How It Works (And What It Costs)

Unlike most platforms that make you pay before connecting, we let you try everything first.

1

Create a free account

Sign up with your email. No credit card required. You immediately get access to our free tier: watchlists, limited stock analysis, and manual portfolio tracking.

2

Connect CommSec for free

Click "Connect Brokerage" and select CommSec. You'll authenticate securely via SnapTrade. Your credentials never touch our servers. This is free to do.

3

Get 15 days of automatic syncing

Your current holdings sync automatically for 15 days. Note: CommSec provides holdings only (no transaction history). Full access to all features. See exactly what you'd get as a paying subscriber.

4

Your data stays with you forever

After 15 days, automatic syncing pauses, but your portfolio data stays. You can continue tracking manually for free, or upgrade to Pro ($9/month) to keep auto-sync running.

Why We Do It This Way

Most portfolio trackers want your credit card before you connect a brokerage. We're confident enough in our product that we flip that model. Connect first, see the value, then decide if it's worth $9/month to you. We have a 30-day money-back guarantee too.

"CommSec is great for trading Australian shares, but their portfolio tools are so basic. Stock Unlock finally gives me proper performance tracking and dividend analysis that CommSec should have built years ago."

Can I track CommSec alongside other brokerages?
Absolutely. This is one of the main reasons people use Stock Unlock. Connect CommSec, Schwab, Vanguard, Robinhood, or any of 30+ brokerages and see everything in one Combined Portfolio view. You get the safety and reliability of established brokerages while using a modern platform that actually shows you the full picture: total net worth, true asset allocation, opportunities, and risks across your linked accounts.
How often does my CommSec portfolio sync?
Your portfolio syncs automatically while your connection is active. Timing depends on brokerage data availability and trade settlement windows.
Is Stock Unlock a brokerage?
No. We're a portfolio tracking and analysis platform, not a brokerage. Brokerages profit when you trade. We pay the bills through optional premium features that help you research better. This means our tools are designed to help you make informed decisions, not encourage unnecessary trading. Read our story to learn why we built this and why we keep prices low.
Can I disconnect my CommSec account later?
Yes. Simply delete the portfolio in Stock Unlock. You have full control over your account and data at all times. You can also revoke access directly from CommSec's third-party permissions if you prefer.
What if I don't want to connect my brokerage?
No problem. You can upload your holdings via CSV or enter them manually. You still get all the same portfolio analytics, dividend tracking, and Stock Scores. The brokerage connection just saves you from manual data entry.
Does Stock Unlock help with Australian tax reporting?
Stock Unlock provides dividend tracking and returns calculations that make tax time easier. Note: CommSec connection imports holdings only, so transaction history needs to be added manually or via CSV import. While we don't calculate CGT or franking credits directly, having all your data in one place gives you and your accountant what you need for Australian tax reporting.
