Easy access to online share dealing

I have used freetrade for over 6 months and enjoyed how simple the service is. Even better that it’s basically free. The service keeps getting better and better. Reviewed on: 6th March 2021

Free online investing platform

Finally we can do away with fees and charges for trading shares online. This innovative business model allows small beginner investors get comfortable with securities markets and learn to trade stocks and shares without losing a chunk of money on fees. Reviewed on: 1st March 2021

Freedom of investment

Free-trade option, with easy setup and easy entry, nice replacement for "Trading212". Reviewed on: 22nd February 2021

Investing is finally accessible to everyone

5
Thanks to Freetrade, I can have a portfolio of 70 stocks and ETF's! All while not having platform charges of £700. Instead I just pay simple pricing of 0.45% on currency conversion and £3 a month for an ISA. Investing isn't another way for companies to steal my money with ridiculous fees. Investing is an affordable way to make both companies as well as everyday people financially independent together. Reviewed on: 21st February 2021

Accessible trading for all

Great service and great value

5
I really liked the communication provided to keep you informed of events. I also liked the transparency when a problem occurs and what they are doing to solve it. Also the costumer service is very friendly and competent. The selection of stock is not yet perfect but expanding all the time. Overall I'm very satisfied. Reviewed on: 14th February 2021

Very easy to use, inexpensive stock trading app

5
Invest in ETFs, investment trusts and shares for free. I've been waiting for a product like this for years so I can stop paying inflated fees elsewhere. Really easy to use app. Would suit beginners very well. The company really pushes long-term investing in its educational materials and explicitly chose not to offer dangerous leveraged products like CFDs or options. Reviewed on: 7th February 2021

Making investing simple for all

Freetrade and their product is nothing short of outstanding. The simple UI/UX coupled with a youthful outlook on investing and its advantages for people have resulted in a truly wonderful company with a bright outlook, stripping away the complexities and difficulties that come to beginner investors. Huge credit to the team and everyone involved. Reviewed on: 6th February 2021
