The value of your portfolio can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you invest. Tax treatment depends on personal circumstances and current rules may change. Check before you transfer that we can accept your investments, you won’t lose any guarantees, and that you know what charges you may incur.

What our customers think

Transferring to another provider

If you decide to leave Freetrade, you can transfer out UK or US securities as cash or stock. At the moment, to transfer any non-UK or non-US securities away from Freetrade, you will have to sell them first and transfer the amount as cash. When you transfer as cash you’ll be out of the market, so you may miss out on the ups and downs.

Stocks can only be transferred as whole shares. If you wish to transfer a fraction of a share, you will have to sell it first and transfer the amount as cash.

There is no fee to transfer out UK securities or cash. Transferring out US securities will incur a cost of £17 per holding. We charge this amount to cover the fee our service provider charges us.

Your new provider may not be able to accept transfers of all securities you hold with Freetrade. It’s worth checking if they can support your stocks before you start your transfer.

Your future broker can send an electronic transfer request to us at: transfers@freetrade.io.
