Easy to use app with great selection of stocks

5
Easy to use app with a great selection of stocks. Even though it's behind the paywall the Plus membership is great value with additional features and a greater selection of stocks. But for those who don't want to pay, the free version is quite impressive. App is easy to use and navigate. Reviewed on: 21st January 2021

Friendly and clear money management

In the past I had tried numerous platforms apps and services all designed to let users purchase and trade shares. But yet I repeatedly found even the most popular providers were not interested or able to engage a novice like me. Freeshare couldn’t be more different. It has so many intuitive ways to show me what my money is doing, where it is and also offers ways to understand what I might do with it. Despite owning 4 properties I had no investment in shares. Thanks to Freeshare, this has changed. For two years I have had money sat doing nothing, I registered with FREESHARE looking to buy £1000 on one specific share. The freeshare app gives me learning opportunities, discussion forums and simple visualisations of the market. I thought was great because I was able to finally understand the process enough to invest my £1000 in one share. Now, just three weeks later, I have invested £10,000 in 9 different shares. The majority of the shares I have selected for my portfolio are from companies I had never previously heard of or considered investing in before. I have had some gains and some losses, but all of these I understand because of the clear way information is presented via the Freeshare app. And I’m pleased to say that that the return on my investments is around 8 % growth!

Low cost access to Stocks and shares ISA

You can have a stocks and shares ISA account for 3£ pcm which is a great value. No additional cost per transaction except for the exchange rate for foreign stocks. Love it! Reviewed on: 20th January 2021
