Founded in 2020, InvestingReviews© is an independent finance comparison review site that was set up to help people make smarter decisions about investing, trading, and saving.
The number of online fintech (financial technology) solutions available to the UK market continues to grow, and we aim to review all the investing, trading, and savings providers to give readers the best insights on which partner is most suitable for their needs.

Our Story
Founded in 2o20 we realised there was a lack of independent reviews for the self-directed investor to help them pick the best possible investing, trading, and saving platforms to suit their individual needs and set about changing that.
Today, InvestingReviews has reviewed over 200 (and growing) trading and investing platforms and continues to offer comparisons and alternatives to suit every investor’s needs.

Our Values
Trust
We provide the most accurate, transparent, and trustworthy reviews through first-hand experience. We spend hours researching and testing all the trading and investing sites to provide the most in-depth reviews, with all the information you need in order to make an informed decision.
We also ensure the safety of our readers is paramount by ensuring all the sites we review are FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) regulated.
Transparency
In the first instance, we are all about real world experience. We genuinely test and review each platform we review and give a transparent view on what we think, good or bad.
Honesty
Whilst we aim to review every investing and trading platform available to UK readers, we won’t always recommend them. Our honest reviews will give both pros and cons and who they are suitable for, or not.

What We Do
We present the best features of investment, trading and savings providers by comparing their key features, to allow a quick way to make an informed decision.

Read more about how we review trading, investing and savings providers.
We also rate each area of the provider we review and give an overall rating with comparisons to alternatives.
Why Trust Us
We spend a lot of time researching every provider we review and make sure we use the providers ourselves.
How Do We Offer a Free Service?
In simple terms, we are able to offer free information thanks to the fees we receive from the providers listed on our site who we are affiliated with.
When an investing platform or trading broker is sent traffic directed from InvestingReviews, we may get a small commission. But that doesn’t mean our reviews are biassed in any way.
