Disrupting the financial system

Lightyear gives access to the retail investors into the MMFs. Very important step in the high yield environment whereas banks pay no interest at all. Reviewed on: 4th April 2024

Investing in Lightyear

5
Great experience since day 1. Making investing so easy by only clicking couple of buttons. There are a lot of stocks to choose from, the information about the stocks and some news about them so you can make a much better decision to either invest or hold currently. Easy to use with good interface. Fees are as low as they can be and they do not take any big commissions from people. As a bonus when you have money on Lightyear and waiting it be invested it earns you some income based on interest rates. Reviewed on: 4th April 2024

Quality service with huge value for money

The UI is very clean and intuitive. The app has all the instruments you'd need to achieve long term investment goals, and the fees are the lowest of all providers. Reviewed on: 4th April 2024

Best app on the market

5
Lightyear is very easy to use, interactive brokers for example is very tedious to set up but that's not the case with lightyear. Withdraw is alo very fast. The UI is very good so you can see and find everything very fast. It's amazing! Reviewed on: 4th April 2024
