Important information
Capital at risk. Fees and features change. £0 dealing does not necessarily mean trading is cost-free. Some multi-asset apps may offer CFDs or leveraged products separately from share investing — always confirm the product type. This is not personal advice. Confirm current terms on the provider’s website.
Our methodology
We compare UK trading apps using provider-published dealing fees, FX charges, account types, investment choice, features and regulatory status where verified. Comparisons consider: dealing fees, fx charges, platform fees, account types, investment range, fractional shares, order types, regular investing, and related public provider information.
Commercial relationships do not determine factual provider information or our editorial guidance.

The distinction is not absolute. Many modern providers offer features of both. Compare investment platforms.
Fees & charges
Charge for buying or selling an investment.
Currency-conversion fee on overseas investments.
Difference between the buying and selling price.
Fee for holding investments or using the platform.
Some providers charge separately for an ISA.
May apply when withdrawing money.
Some platforms charge if an account is unused.
An ongoing charge built into funds or ETFs.
£0 dealing does not necessarily mean trading is cost-free. Spreads, FX charges and execution prices can still affect what you pay. We do not rank execution quality unless reliable comparable data is available.
Safety & regulation
Check that the relevant firm is authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority for the activity being offered. Authorisation does not make investments risk-free.
FSCS protection may apply in certain circumstances if an authorised firm fails. It does not protect against market losses.
Regulated firms are generally subject to rules designed to safeguard client money and assets. Arrangements differ by provider.
Some shares are held through nominee structures on behalf of customers rather than in your own name on the register.
