Simple, transparent fees.
No surprises.
We believe you should always know what you’re paying. Our pricing is built around you, the investor — low costs, no hidden charges, and no jargon.
What you
pay for
These are the only charges you’ll ever see from us.
Applied when buying or selling a security priced in a different currency to your account. One of the lowest FX rates on the market.
Flat £1.00 commission on every buy or sell order for shares listed on the London Stock Exchange.
NYSE and NASDAQ equities. Minimum order fee of $0.10 applies; the fee is capped at $5.00 no matter the order size.
Flat €1.00 commission for shares listed on supported European exchanges (Xetra, Euronext, SIX and others).
UK government Stamp Duty Reserve Tax on buy orders of UK-listed shares. We collect this on behalf of HMRC — we don’t keep a penny.
What’s
always free
These are things you’d often pay for elsewhere — we don’t charge for any of them.
No commission on ETF buy or sell orders — covering UK and major global markets.
No monthly, annual or platform fee — ever. Open as many accounts as you need at no extra cost.
Deposit from any UK bank account via Faster Payments. Funds usually arrive within minutes.
Withdraw to a UK bank account whenever you want. No fees, no minimums, no waiting periods.
Dividends are credited to your account automatically. Choose to reinvest or hold as cash — never any handling charges.
Hold GBP, USD and EUR balances side-by-side at no extra charge. Convert only when you choose.
Other fees
Most customers never pay these. Here for completeness.
Optional convenience method. We pass on the card-network fee at cost — most customers deposit free via bank transfer.
Fixed processing fee per incoming international wire. Only applies if you fund your account via SWIFT — domestic transfers stay free.
