Review of the Lightyear, Investments:

The best

European best broker! Every month coming new awesome futures Reviewed on: 15th March 2023

Not good for small retail customers.

Newly introduced charges for buying and selling put us off. Especially not good to make small transactions. Reviewed on: 8th January 2024

So far, so good.

So far, so good. They have a snappy app with modern UI. Wide selection of stocks and ETFs. I just wish they were also offering ISA products. Reviewed on: 8th January 2024

Lightyears ahead

The team here is incredible, making investing accessible to all. They have a super sleek app, constantly releasing new features and have transparent but low costs. And their support is great. 10/10 Reviewed on: 11th April 2023

Easy, cheap and delightful investment platform

Multi-currency, great design and easy to use. Reviewed on: 4th April 2023

Good investment platform

I’ve been enjoying it ever since day one. Easy to navigate platform with the best interest rates for money I have seen in the market. If you were to expand your portfolio and add more companies, throw in some ETF’s and maybe ISA’s you will officially become best investing platform ever. That is if you also keep customer costs down. I would not mind trying some other products and services. I actually would not mind doing banking with Lightyear. Keep up the good job and keep making customers happy, because in the end that alone will attract new customers. Thank you Reviewed on: 29th March 2023

A dream come true

Lightyear is what an investment platform should be: fast, reliable, intuitive, a gifted solution Reviewed on: 26th March 2023

Best modern UK brokerage

Transparent FX fees, great UX, interest rates on uninvested balance get updated minutes after BoE announcements. Best solution on the market, period. Reviewed on: 24th March 2023
