Have used and still use other investment apps and none even compare to Lightyear. Really enjoy the ease and fair pricing as well as transparency. Fees and costs are very reasonable. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2026

Great trading for small investors.

As a small investor Lightyear is suitable for me. The free trading means I get a return on my investment. I'm over 7% up in 2026 (just 3 weeks in) Reviewed on: 22nd January 2026
