Review of the Freetrade, Online share dealing:

How investing should be

5
Easy to use, transparent, low fees, good cadence of delivering new functionality and encourages long term investing. Reviewed on: 10th December 2018

A platform that truly opens investing for all of us

5
I wanted to start investing for years, but found the dealing commission to be a financial barrier. With the little I had available to invest in stocks, I couldn't properly diversify my portfolio due to high dealing commission and custody fees. Aside from the fees, I love the community Freetrade has nurtured, and the way I can see what other 'Freetraders' are saying/thinking in regards to the stocks I'm interested in investing in. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Epic platform!

Finally, a share platform that does things right! Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Great app, really easy to use.

Enabled me to get into investing which I thought was only available to people with stockbrokers & loads of cash! A great way to invest in companies that you want to support, allowing me to choose my investments in areas that have a positive effect on the environment. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Educational, great service & user friendly platform

So far I had a great experience with them. They are very proactive in informing of any chance including something trivial like the change of training hours or holiday. I also had a very good experience if I needed any help or clarification. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021
