About Freetrade

Freetrade is a UK neobroker founded in London in 2016, regulated by the FCA. The platform offers commission-free trading of UK stocks, US stocks, ETFs, REITs, and SPACs. For non-GBP stocks, a 0.45% FX fee applies. Freetrade was one of the pioneers of commission-free trading in the United Kingdom. A standout feature of Freetrade is the ability to open an ISA (Individual Savings Account), which allows tax-free gains up to an annual limit. This is a significant advantage for UK investors. Through the Plus subscription, users gain access to extended features such as more stocks, limit orders, and higher ISA limits. Freetrade primarily targets UK investors and beginners seeking simple, low-cost access to the stock market. The app is deliberately kept simple and forgoes complex features in favor of intuitive operation.
