Love Fractional Shares

5
I started using Freetrade to build a portfolio of high growth tech stocks. Many of the stocks I was interested in trade at $100’s per share which meant building a somewhat diversified portfolio almost impossible with only a limited amount of capital to invest. The ability to buy fractional shares at low cost through Freetrade has helped get me exposure to Amazon, Tesla and other high $ value shares without needing £1,000’s of capital to be able to purchase whole shares. It’s a fantastic and easy to use product. Thank you Freetrade! Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Investing made easy

5
I have used various platforms for investing my savings but none have been so clear and accessible as Freetrade. The benefit is in its name, free investing...as it should be for retail investors as managers have the benefit of massive fund pots. We should be able to compliment our pension pots with our savings through ISAs etc. Freetrade makes this all possible at click of the phone. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021
