I just wanted to share a quick update on our progress towards building Freetrade Alpha.
We’re making steady progress with setting up Alpha subscriptions as part of building our own investment platform.
As a first step, I’m excited to share that we’ve now enabled free instant orders for the investors who have earnt a lifetime Alpha subscription. You’ll receive this as:
- A round 3 investor who earnt Alpha for life, by investing £5,000+
- A round 2 investor who earnt premium trades for free, by investing £1,000+
- A round 1 investor who will always get our paid premium services for free, by investing £1,000+
We’ll also be refunding all commission paid so far, and will send an email shortly to everyone who’s eligible to let you know as soon as we’ve refunded any fees.
We have made this update in our backend systems, but while we’re working on updating the app you’ll still see the £1 instant order fee when you place the trade. But when your order is complete, you’ll see £0 commission on the contract note. Until we’ve updated the app you won’t be able to place a free instant order worth less than £1 in total.
You’ll also see an Alpha badge on your profile soon, check out the sneak peek here.
If you earned a month of free Alpha, we haven’t forgotten you, we’ll share an update about our plans for this soon.
