In the past, we provided links that allowed people to check out with a credit card only if they reached out to us and expressed difficulty checking out with PayPal.  We now offer the ability to check out with a credit card (without PayPal) for every person that has completed their trial period.  During the trial period, only PayPal checkout is offered (as it allows for free trial periods).  However, at the end of your trial, the option to check out with a credit card will appear after you log into https://stock.screener.co.  The dialog will appear similar to the one below:

As always, feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the checkout process.

In the last two weeks, Screener.co has received a couple of favorable media mentions.  In a Seeking Alpha article, Ruerd Heeg wrote:

-----

How I find these stocks and what I do with them

I find these stocks with screener.co. IT products rarely deliver more than they promise. This website is one of the exceptions. In fact, it delivers much more than I had expected. It provides screening using all kinds of complex and programmable combinations of criteria. In addition, it provides a number of very handy features that I really need but before subscribing I didn't know I would need.

Also, Tom Shaughnessy of SecretCaps created a YouTube video, in which he showed users how to find attractive microcap companies using Screener.co.  The video is embedded at the bottom of this page.

One of the common feature requests we have received over the years is to include charts and technical analysis in Screener.co.  Even before we introduced our company profiles, users asked for price information and derived technical indicators to be exposed through Screener.co.  Beginning today, company profiles for US exchange-traded common stocks include a TradingView interactive chart.

 

MSFT stock chart

 

While this new feature is currently limited to US exchange-traded common stocks, TradingView plans to expand its coverage universe to include international markets in the near future.  As new markets become available, we will embed TradingView charts in the company profiles for securities in those markets.

 

We looked at a number of ways to offer charting to Screener.co users and were very impressed with the functionality that is embedded in the TradingView charts.  Live price updates from BATS for many securities, a library of technical indicators that can be plotted in the charts, and multiple drawing tools make TradingView charts a robust new addition to the Screener.co platform.

 

Having complemented Screener.co’s fundamental data and native analytical capabilities with TradingView’s advanced charting and technical analysis tool, we are confident that Screener.co is the best low-cost equity research platform in the market.

The LAUNCH experience was incredible for both me, personally, and for Screener.co. The entire LAUNCH team was incredibly supportive throughout the application and preparation process and they were very generous with their time and, as a result, had an enormous positive impact on the company pitch and product well beyond the exposure received from presenting at the conference.

 

Round One

I was very excited when I heard back at the middle of January that the LAUNCH team wanted a Skype demo of the product. There were three participants on the call from LAUNCH and they were armed with well informed questions and constructive feedback despite having only received a short application and a brief product demo. Given the highly specialized financial focus of our company, it was clear that they did their homework. Among the things they suggested during the demo were community features that would allow users to share screens and have discussions about the companies returned by and performance of those screens. After the call, I immediately wrote to the developers that were working on the new website that we launched today to add those features to the site--they would obviously benefit users, encourage more active participation with the site, and provide some content to educate users about how to use our complex product. Even though those features could not be ready in time for the conference, I am incredibly pleased with how they came out and it was a direct result of the LAUNCH feedback. At the end of the Skype session, I was told that we would have the opportunity to demo again in ~10 days for the next round.

 

Round Two

Those 10 days were probably the most intense of the entire product development cycle. In parallel, I was coordinating with the offshore team in the hope the new website would be ready in time in case we were selected (alas, it was not...), continuing to build the core functionality of the tool, and negotiating with data providers about providing the data for the tool. It was not until the morning of the second demo with Jason Krute that we had a countersigned contract from a data provider and I was still building functionality and fixing bugs right up until day 8! A couple weeks later, I got the e-mail that we had been accepted to present at LAUNCH. When I heard back about the time for the second demo, we did not yet have access to the data feed for the tool and I really appreciate the LAUNCH team's faith in us and our vendor that we would be able to pull everything together in time for the conference.

 

Preparation

What surprised me most about the LAUNCH process was how much time the LAUNCH team was willing to invest in helping companies get ready to present. The first step was a 15 minute call with Tyler Crowley on the presentation and messaging. 5 minutes into the call, I had a completely different perspective on how to frame our pitch. By the end of the 15 minutes, I tossed out the entire presentation I had prepared earlier--the new version was many times better.

 

When I arrived in California for the first rehearsal session, I first had the opportunity to meet a number of the other startups that would be presenting. It was a bit intimidating to have been part of such an impressive group...and they hadn't even demoed their products yet. I have attended startup and venture conferences before, during my previous life as a VC, but this group of companies really stood out right away. During the prep session, itself, Jason Calacanis was awesome! He clearly has a passion for working with entrepreneurs and also has a lot of experience with these types of events. His feedback really helped me with the Screener.co pitch and the overall marketing messaging for the company.

 

Aftermath

Our launch was picked up by VentureBeat and syndicated to NYTimes.com through their partnership. We also got great coverage after the fact from Xconomy Boston, who ran a two page onilne feature on Screener.co that generated a lot of interest in the company. LAUNCH also helped us get on the radar of potential strategic partners and led to hundreds of direct sign-ups on our website in under a month.  In addition, Xconomy Boston ran a full feature on the company.  The company is much further along than it would have been if not for the conference and it is thanks to the hard work of the LAUNCH team and how supportive they were throughout the entire process.

With savings account and bond interest rates continuing to be low, dividend paying stocks can be an attractive alternative. Most savings accounts are currently yielding under 1% so it is worth looking for dividend paying stocks that yield at least 1% while providing additional upside in the form of future EPS and DPS growth. It is important to look for strong balance sheets, reasonable valuations, and companies whose recent growth is likely to continue into the future.

We can start by using the Screener.co stock screener to find companies that are traded on US exchanges, growing, offering attractive and stable or growing dividend yields, and trading at reasonable valuations. We can also make sure their balance sheets are not burdened by debt. To do this, let's use the following criteria:

Field
