Keeping it simple

5
Freetrade is the app which like many others , first got me into trading on the stock market. The simple design , good customer service and competitive rates are what make this platform the best to choose from. Wether you are a complete newbie or seasoned investor I think freetrade is for everyone. Reviewed on: 25th January 2022

Great for ease and all the basics needs a bit of work around the edges

4
Freetrade is awesome for the ease and cost you can trade at, and increasingly their coverage of stocks globally. App and customer service good. Lacking bits around the edges to allow customers to make this their only or primary app, namely: - Better reporting capability to allow customers to complete capital gains and income tax reporting - Better coverage of funds, including mutual funds. Lots of the big-name fund managers missing. Reviewed on: 25th January 2022

Best stock trading app out there

5
Hands down the best stock trading app I have used - user friendly, prompt and helpful customer service, great design...and no trading fees! Love it Reviewed on: 25th January 2022

Best trading App

5
FreeTrade is simply the best trading app that I have ever used and come across. Could recommend them more highly. Reviewed on: 25th January 2022

Great app, easy to use interface

5
Been using FreeTrade for about a year now. Such a great app to use, the interface is great for every type of investor. Minimum deposits are low which is good and fees are non existent. Couldn’t recommend enough Reviewed on: 25th January 2022

My favourite long term investing platform

5
Freetrade is very simple and easy to understand. Trades go through pretty much instantly and funds come into the account instantly. I love being able to take advantage of the market volatility instantly. Rather than using a vanguard account which takes a day to clear funds and then another day to buy into the fund. Its much more efficient to buy ETFs on freetrade. The customer service is very good aswell. I get quick replys to any questions I ask. Reviewed on: 25th January 2022

Hassle free experience to getting into the equities market Reviewed on: 25th January 2022

democratises share dealing.

5
democratises investing, bringing share dealing to the fingertips of average people earning average wages. Straight forward to use, and dispenses with transaction fees Reviewed on: 25th January 2022

Actually makes investing accessible

A platform with clear fees and the ideal customer first feature set to help the next generation get invested. Couldn't recommend it higher Reviewed on: 25th January 2022
