Just what I need. Works like a charm. Reviewed on: 13th March 2023

Terrible customer support.

1
Out of any investment broker I have used their customer support have been by far the worst. Maybe I am an outlier but never got answer to any issues that I have had since I applied. Feels like my contacts were blocked as soon as I registered. UI is subpar too. Reviewed on: 12th January 2024

Best investment app for a beginner

5
Best investment app for someone who is starting to do self-directed investing. Easy onboarding, they pay interest on cash and have a good selection of instruments, including money market funds and ETF-s. Very low commissions and you can start with a very low amount of money to invest to explore and educate yourself. Reviewed on: 12th January 2024
