Did anyone see Torsten from Trade republic join the call!! They must be very worried about Freetrade. Deal with your own customers, don’t copy Freetrade, FT are unstoppable.

Product

GME changed priorities. Growth has meant focusing on customer operations

Freetrade are focusing on improving payments. “You should always know where your money is” - @Duncan. Making it quicker!! Feedback if there’s a hold up with deposits I.e wrong ref no. Notice improvements in the next couple of weeks.

Still working on EU trading but levelling up on key areas.

Auto invest / pilot feature. Teams most favourite feature that is currently not in app. Isn’t being worked on currently. It’s extremely high on the roadmap. They want to keep evolving this feature as time goes on. Ability to have mix of auto and self investing!!! No timelines on this.
