Good UI; Low fees; Good management

Very good user interface. Management is very well responsive to criticism and willing to fix mistakes on their platform (Also their knowledge in the finance sector is trustworthy due to having built one of the biggest unicorns from Estonia). Lower transaction prices than anywhere else. Reviewed on: 15th January 2024

I'm very happy that Lightyear was among the first to start offering returns on uninvested cash when interest rates went sky high last year to be able to make them benefit me as well, not just banks. Reviewed on: 15th January 2024
