One and only

Great product, no enticing into investing in anything which stands out from the competition, great customer support also Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Almost perfect

4
FreeTrade gives the ability to invest in the stock market from your smart phone. Most share dealing sites/apps limit the accessibility to small investors as the fees are prohibitively large relative to some people’s investing budget. FreeTrade started by doing away with the fees completely opening up the market to any and all who want to invest. However in more recent times some paywalls are being put up which prevents my review being 5*. Please don’t increase fees any more or you’ll just be as bad as the existing market place.

Best app ever

5
Love using the app. Can’t recommend it enough. Only improvement I’d like is greater range of stocks to invest in, but I know it’s on the way. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Makes investing super easy

5
The Freetrade app is so easy to use, and the flat fee structure is such good value (no commission!). Signing up to Freetrade got me into investing Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Best investment Iv made

5
Fantastic little find Freetrade was. Regularly get emails with up to date stuff. Can easily work the app and transferring money in or out is pretty effortless and done quickly. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Great app for casual investor

4
Great for the casual retail investor. Would be even better if we can get to see the trade execution price before buying. 212 executes at the lowest sale price and highest buy price when buying or selling shares and they take the difference where as freetrade does not do that. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Amazing platform

5
Quick and easy to use, love the app! Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Great user experience

5
Easier to use and access than "traditional" online brokers while offering lower trading / account costs. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

A really good app to boost you economy

5
There are many app-s out there but not many as good as Freetrade. Really happy with it. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

My go to app for buying shares!

5
I have tried several other mainstream apps but they either cost to much per order or their app is clunky. Freetrade is my go to trading platform app. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021
