The Lightyear Trading App is Extremely Easy to use and Very User Friendly. The Share Price Graph is Absolutely Brilliant, it's easy to read any Very Responsive when checking price fluctuations. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Good for multiple purposes

They offer low fee stocks trading, ETFs, as well as money market funds. They offer good but not market leading interest on uninvested funds, in various currencies, and can effectively use it as a multicurrency account work low FX fees. Good real-time stock pricing info and visualisations. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Easy to use and low fees

It's easy to use and has low fees. I like that the cash on my balance sheet is earning interest too. Reviewed on: 10th April 2024

LightYears ahead of the competition!!

Great easy to use app with no platform fees. Easy to withdraw and deposit cash. It also provides good & useful information on stocks. I would have opened an ISA account with them but not available to U.K. investors. Hope you keep it clean without adding any Crypto and keep up the good work! Reviewed on: 10th April 2024
