    Today we had to limit US trades. I’m so sorry. It was down to our volume overwhelming the banking rails that facilitate our GBP/USD conversion.

    Freetrade is literally owned by its customers. We were crowdfunded into existence. Average investment per shareholder is c. £1,000.

    I understand people's anger at certain financial markets participants’ activity. And we’re not building a platform to encourage short term trading behaviour. But damn do we respect our customers and their ability to make their own investment decisions.

    To be clear, Freetrade never sells your flow, never sells your data. Ever.

    Our focus will remain on educating our customers, the retail investor. They come first for us. We’ll do our best to make sure our customers have a reliable platform to invest the way they want.

    Our engineering team has invented a novel solution to work with the 18x reduction in bandwidth that was forced on us. We’re working around the clock to build it and be ready for the market open on Monday.
