Investing as easy as it should be

Freetrades, great selection, is stocks coming down the line, an experience that is simple, yet sophisticated enough and easy to invest through. Reviewed on: 15th December 2018

Great and intuitive!

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

Finally an honest, effective and affordable investment platform!

I really rate Freetrade for anyone who wants to invest in companies or ETF's. This company gives the average person a chance to invest, without being ripped off by excessive broker fees. I've always had an interest in shares and wantedd to invest like this, but was forced to invest with Cavendish/Fidelity in the past and I was charged around £10.00 per transaction there. So I'd loose £20 (£10 buying + £10 selling) before making any gains. For someone that hasn't got a lot of money to invest like me, the fees just priced me out of the market before (Fidelity). Freetrade is different and much more affordable. It has allowed me to build experience and confidence in responsible investing. I recommend it to family and friends, as this company is revelutionary and allowing people like me to get into responsible investing. Freetrade have their customers in mind with a user friendly app and only encourage responsible longterm investing. I trust them and appreciate how they have enabled me to invest affordabley and responsibly. Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

I had a dream...

I have always wanted to invest in shares and get my hard earned money working for me. However I wanted to have my own control not be shackled by high costs or banks, so it was no more than a dream. However with Freetrade I am free to make my own decisions. This is without mentioning that it is is trustworthy, honest and easy to use. Opened up doors to financial control that I only used to dream of. Free free at last... Reviewed on: 18th January 2021
