Opening up investing

5
As a first time investor, Freetrade has been the tool that finally made the whole thing simple (and cheap) enough to ‘have a go’ on a small scale. Very good experience so far. Reviewed on: 17th January 2019

Free and easy

5
This company has allowed me to start investing in the UK stock market...simple as that. With no fees I can invest small amounts that would have been pointless with the transaction fees the established firms charge. Great customer service when there is an issue helps massively too. Great company and hope it goes from strength to strength. Reviewed on: 17th January 2019

Supporting investing little and often

I don’t have much money and am loathe to pay transaction fees on what little I can spare to invest. Freetrade allows me to buy a small amount of shares without sinking too much into transaction costs! Love it! Reviewed on: 17th January 2019

Share trading with an actual user experience

5
Clearly put together by people who understand trading AND UX, not to be confused with the other (big institutions) attempts at good UX, which is clearly approved by committee. This is like going from windows97 to OS X mojave. Build it and they will come is a lie. Make it easy and they will come, also a lie. But closer to the truth. Reviewed on: 17th January 2019
