I am considering to RSP 100 USD for VOO through FSMOne. However, I saw the min USD2.50 dividend handling fee. What will happen if my dividends are less than the dividend handling fee?

Did some calculations, and it is likely that by the first quarter my dividends would be lesser than USD2.50. Will I just not get the dividends or will they charge me the remaining fees?

Hey, I had the same question before too!

Short answer You don't get any dividends.

What I was worried (And you might be too)

Scenario: let's say you get a $2 dividend but you're charge min $2.50, do they just charge $2 or do you get charged additional $0.50? Turns out they only charge $2 and absorb the additional costs.

On the bright side, max charge of $25 for dividends though! I called them and asked, their hotline is 6557 2853 if you wanna double-check. If you found this helpful, please show some love to my personal finance youtube channel as a dividend for lending you a hand ;) Stay safe!​​​

If your dividend after tax is less than $2.50, u will not receive anything. You do not have to pay any money to them.

If your dividends are less than the dividend handling fee, not to worry, you don't need to pay FSMOn...
