About this app

Trade Art and Invest with Masterworks

Masterworks is an award-winning mobile investment platform that makes it easy for everyday people to invest in shares of multi-million-dollar art. Masterworks is the only platform that lets you invest in works by artists like Basquiat, Picasso, Banksy, and more.

Alternative Investments in Blue-Chip Art

Compared to other asset classes, contemporary art investments have outperformed the S&P 500, real estate, and gold for the past 26 years with a price appreciation of 13.8%, but there has been no way to invest in it. Masterworks is the first company to offer art investment products to the investing public. Forget the real money games and make an investment that is truly worth your time and money.

Contemporary Art Price

Mobile investments in fine art through Masterworks can be an attractive option for those looking for an alternative investment opportunity crypto, stocks, and the like with the potential for financial gain and the added benefit of supporting the art world.

Customer Reviews
Elliot ‘My experience with Masterworks has been positive, I used to use win cash games to make some money from my phone but always found it so confusing. My bank and my Money Lion have looked much more pleasing since investing in art on Masterworks!’

Sarah ‘I used to invest in crypt but that felt more like a cryptogram than a simple way to make money! Now I’m using Masterworks and couldn’t be happier. There aren’t any money games and they’re not throwing ‘win cash’ in your face every five seconds, it’s a genuine investment. Really enjoy this app and my Roth IRA is looking much healthier now!’

Ratings and reviews

Pay no attention to the moron reviewers who are pissed they can't day-trade art or those who don't even have access to the system yet. Masterworks is growing the right way ... by onboarding new users slowly so the current users don't receive a downgraded experience (or the system crash altogether). As far as the app goes, you can do anything you need to buy art. I suggest the website for "getting set up," but once that's done, the app offers a fast, easy-to-use experience.

Masterworks is a game-changer for anyone interested in investing in art. The app is easy to use, and the team of experts has done an excellent job curating a selection of blue-chip artworks. I love that I can buy fractional shares, which has made it more accessible for me to invest in valuable pieces. Overall, Masterworks is a must-have app for anyone looking to diversify their portfolio with art investments.

Since the latest update, I had an issue that it had me in a sign-in loop. Support told me I needed to sign out of masterworks the mobile browser on the same device and that seemed to fix the issue, however I now receive 0 notifications when new artwork drops from the app. I'm signed in and have forced all app notifications on and still nothing. Only way I get notified is through the email that i don't check often.
