Simple, affordable and reliable

5
Cannot praise Freetrade enough. Take a complex problem like investment in non-UK stocks and funds and build a platform that makes it incredibly simple and affordable to get your foot in the door of exciting investment opportunities you could not do so easily before. I love the app especially where the investment return is matched against a global ETF fund and monetised returns. Really helps you understand what your results have been! Keep up the great work team Freetrade. Reviewed on: 10th April 2021

Freetrade is THE BEST THING EVER!!!

5
I have been a member of freetrade for just over a year now. It’s one of the best things ever. If allows me to buy shares with ZERO COMMISSION. I even now pay for plus. I must visit the app more than a handful amount of times a day. The community is excellent. Freetrade should so win this award. I have got all my family using it. Only thing I would like is shares that require nationality declaration to be added as these are some of the most major shares. Thanks. Go freetrade you have this. Reviewed on: 10th April 2021

Great

I’ve always wanted to start investing, but it wasn’t until I could invest small amounts to build my confidence that I got started. Freetrade helped with this. I started with small amounts and started to increase these as my confidence grew. Reviewed on: 9th April 2021

Commission free trades and reliable

5
More reliable than trading 212 although does have a small charge of ten pounds a month. Never noticed any outages and really user friendly UI. Could do with a slightly wider range of stocks to take top spot but a close second. Reviewed on: 9th April 2021
