Love it - especially when interest rates suck

No point putting my money in a savings account, so I invest, and learn about the world and markets whilst I do it. All via Freetrade, cheers team! Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Sublime

Freetrade is the best thing since slice bread. And signing up is the best thing I've done in many years. Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Love this app as always wanted to buy shares but was not sure how too.

5
I have built up a share portfolio in just a few weeks. I can use the ‘discover’ section to look up companies and then found it very easy to buy the shares. So easy to use and understand. Excellent. Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Easy to use and so powerful

5
I love the app, it’s very easy to use and understand and it gives me full control over my investments whether I keep them safe or more risky. It’s easy to adapt investments and pensions to troubling times like the one we are crossing. Highly recommended to anyone looking to take control of their investments and explore stock market investment. Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

In praise of Freetrade

Great app, easy to use

Great app, easy to use. Using the plus version and it’s been really good Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

The broker I've been waiting for all these years

5
I thought about investing for years but the broker fees and difficulty in access/slow communication put me off. Then Freetrade came along. I now have access to my investments at all times with a straight forward to use app that is always improving and a helpful support team. Couldn't imagine going anywhere else! Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Great new company

Have had nothing but good experiences with company. Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Good and cheap

5
Frequent low cost trading very good Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Great and intuitive!

5
Although still growing, very impressed with the app and business model. Allows anyone who might only even have a couple of quid to invest in the stock market. They are transparent letting you know how they make their money (e.g. on fx fees), again allowing anyone to invest. I am Looking forward to new features in the coming years. as they continue to develop and optimise their product. Reviewed on: 18th January 2021
