A New Route to Homeownership
According to the firm, eligible Robinhood Gold members can apply for home loans or refinancing through Sage Home Loans and enjoy mortgage rates at least 0.75% below the national average.
Subscribers will also receive a $500 closing credit, making the offer particularly attractive at a time when affordability remains a key concern in the U.S. housing market.

The program was reportedly tested earlier this year among a limited group of users before expanding nationwide. With mortgage costs at multi-decade highs, Robinhood is betting that lower rates and a simplified digital experience will appeal to both first-time buyers and refinancers.

The launch underscores Robinhood’s ongoing evolution from a trading app into a broader financial platform. Over the past few years, the company has expanded into credit cards, retirement accounts, and now mortgages, aiming to offer users an all-in-one ecosystem for saving, investing, and borrowing.
More Recent Collaborations
Robinhood also recently expanded its UK offering by introducing futures trading, marking another step in its bid to attract active traders in Europe. The rollout brings more than 40 CME Group contracts to the platform, allowing UK customers to trade products spanning indices, energy, metals, and foreign exchange directly through the Robinhood app or its desktop platform, Robinhood Legend.
The launch also builds on Robinhood’s recent introduction of options and desktop trading in the UK, underscoring its deepening partnership with CME Group and broader ambitions to grow beyond its U.S. base.
Futures contracts will incur fees starting at $0.75 per trade, with real-time market data provided at no additional cost; however, exchange and regulatory fees will still apply.
Additionally, recently reports emerged that Robinhood was exploring an international expansion of its prediction markets product, holding talks with regulators in the UK and Europe to gauge how such event-based trading could be introduced outside the U.S.
