Review of the Freetrade, Online share dealing:

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

New to investing!

I started investing back in Jan 2020, and it was pretty intimidating at first. However, every since I joined Freetrade, it’s always been amazing using the app, in terms of the interface which is constantly being worked on and improved, also the customer service which is a great credit to the platform. One thing I like the most about Freetrade, is that, even though the app is somewhat still in the infancy stage, they have skyrocketed to become one of the most prominent free investing apps in the UK, causing major disruption to ‘old school’ players. I love the transparency of their evolving features and what they are working on bringing to their customer base. Keep up the great work Freetrade!! Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Making investing seamless

Freetrade are a great company and have helped me get into investing which I am enjoying so much, and financially benefitting from. I was lucky enough to win a free share (worth £90) in Apple by simply referring a friend. Their ‘plus’ product allows me to earn 3% interest on a £4k cash balance too. Top company with a bright future ahead. Their app is quick, easy, free and super effective. Reviewed on: 18th January 2021
