@tan_maty: Awesome, information gap for mainland US stock accounts +1. In addition to the three I recommended (Interactive Brokers has already reported that mainland friends cannot open accounts). A friend recommended another one called BBAE. Verified that mainland Chinese ID can be used to open an account. However, binding a card requires a foreign card. At this time, you need to register Wise and bind Wise card. Cherish it while you can…
Summary

Awesome, another info gap about mainland China’s US stock accounts: +1
Besides the 3 I recommended (Interactive Brokers has reported that mainland friends can no longer open accounts).
A friend recommended another one called BBAE (必贝).
Tested personally: you can open an account with a Chinese mainland ID card. However, to bind a card, you need to link a foreign card, and at that point you need to register Wise and bind a Wise card.
So use it while you can.
