User friendly and intuitive

The online platform is very simple to use and does not hide behind pages and pages of 'small print'. The platform is also an cost effective way of allowing people to invest reasonably small sums of money without paying high fees thus demystifying the world of stocks and shares Reviewed on: 1st February 2022

Investing made simple

Freetrade provides an easy-to-use app for all your investing needs. Really enjoy the cutting edge technology and insights…. Reviewed on: 1st February 2022

Best way to invest.

I have been using FreeTrade since September 2021. As a first time investor, both the option of an ISA for £3 a month and the free general investing account provide excellent value to new and seasoned investors alike. There are no hidden trading fees and the incentive of a free stock for signing up provides an excellent customer experience. The customer service experience is also very good, with the agents replying promptly and being very knowledgeable and helpful. It would, however, benefit from a live chat service in-app for non-premium customers. The only alternative to FreeTrade, in my opinion, would be Trading 212, but as this platform is not taking new UK customers currently, FreeTrade is the easy choice for UK app-based investors.

Best investing app in the UK

Simple, transparent and reliable, focus on education and long-term investing rather than short term speculation Reviewed on: 1st February 2022

A Freetrade account is simple to manage

Using the Freetrade app it is easy to see the current status of my account and the position of each of my holdings. Buying and selling is also very easy. I feel I have more control over my portfolio since joining Freetrade. Reviewed on: 1st February 2022

Investing for everyone with first class customer service

Incredibly slick, easy to use app with a fantastic UI that feels modern and useable. Great selection of stocks and ETFs to invest in. Massively helpful and friendly ustomer service with super fast response time and very knowledgeable about service questions. Easy communication via live chat in the app or email. Bringing investment to the masses via a fantastic app and backed up by great people. Love it. Reviewed on: 1st February 2022

Best user friendly app.

This app is amazing as it allowed me to really understand the basics of trading. With its modern style interface it makes buying stocks and shares enjoyable, compared to other apps I have used which are more dull. The fact you can buy fraction shares and have acess to thousands of shares around the world is plus. My GIA account also has some Vanguard ETFS such as the FTSE 100 and FSP 500. This Is the cherry on top as it allows me to not just select individual stocks but also diversify my portfolio, especially in these un certain times. I would also like to mention the layout and easy to use format is the most attractive thing for first time investors. You won't find a easier app to use. Reviewed on: 1st February 2022
