Excellent share trading app with good features provided by the basic plan. Good information on companies and good range of companies available even on the basic plan. Simple to use and allows for small scale investing Reviewed on: 15th April 2024

The app works well.

The app works well. I used to think that it might be a bit too simple and too good to be true, but the app is surprisingly robust. My only issues have been in putting money into my wallet, but it's smooth sailing from that point onwards. Reviewed on: 6th February 2026

Freetrade puts me first

5
Freetrade has completely changed how accessible and transparent investing feels for an everyday person like me. The app removes much of the intimidation traditionally associated with investing. From opening an account to placing trades, everything is straightforward and clearly explained. In addition to the growing range of investment options that make long-term investing affordable and inclusive, Freetrade fees are clear, fair, and not hidden in the small print. This builds real trust with me. Their in-app explanations, updates, and market insights make it easier to make informed decisions without feeling overwhelmed. Freetrade delivers exactly what millennial investors like me want, simplicity, transparency, and value. It feels like a platform genuinely built around the customer, not just profits.

Simple, straightforward share dealing.

Simple, straightforward share dealing. No hassle. No stupid fees. Great for your lower value investor, like myself, who wants the occasional trade and to reinvest dividends. They were very helpful when I wanted to transfer shares from another provider, again, with zero fees. Reviewed on: 6th February 2026
