    Did a quick calculation re Superhero
    It would cost $31,878 to buy the 300 shares plus $1,500 brokerage, so $33,378 capital outlay.
    Selling down to 1 share would yield $26,378 (excluding the spread) after the $5 sale brokerage.
    At current prices the 300 shares are worth $3,940.
    So exit proceeds would be $2,440.
    So the cost to setup & exit would be $4,560.

    With the current valuation of my 300 shares, $3,000 application fee & brokerage the same setup & exit would be $5,842. And I've had the benefit of capital gains since the end of Sept.

    Re on going brokerage
    15 SPP per year at average allocation $15,000 with 5% gain would have brokerage fees of approx $1,535 with SPP Harvester vs $75 on Superhero

    SPP Harvester
    Gross profits $11,250
    Less brokerage -$1,535
    Net $9,715
    Less performance fee 20% -$,1943
    Less annual mngt fee -$540
    = $7,232

    Superhero
    Gross profits $11,250
    Less brokerage-$75
    = $11,175


    So the answer is yes it is cheaper if you can buy $100 of shares via Superhero & considerably more profitable going forward.
    However the paperwork generated would be horrendous.
    300 ASX holding statements, updating tax & bank details on 300 registrar accounts, dividend receipts of a few dollars or less x 500+(?) a year.
    You certainly would to have a separate trading account you only used for SPP's plus a separate HIN number IMO to keep things simple.
