How many users now?

Just for the purpose of discussion, not saying it’s accurate:

Someone analysed Freetrade’s Companies House statement (year end Sept 2021) and worked out there was Ā£3.2M revenue from subscriptions.

That’s an average of approx 27K Plus users throughout the year (Ā£120 per user). Since in Sept 2020 they had approx 10k Plus users, let’s simplify it and say in Sept 2021 there was 44k.

Companies House statement also says there was 886,743 users in Sept 2021. That would mean approx 5% of users are Plus users.

Assuming same ratio of Total Users:Plus Users that’s 69K Plus users today, or Ā£8,325,600 annual
subscription revenue.

…

If we can find estimates for retail trading volumes per month/year we could do some equally crude calculations for FX revenue - given it was approx £9.8M year end 2021 :thinking:.

Or if you’re really lazy increase FX revenue by same multiple as subscription, which = Ā£25.49M.

…

Which would make annual revenue approx £33.8M or £2.81M per month. This sounds about right given Adam said monthly revenue was £2M in Oct 2021.

They didn’t need to work it out I because it says it in the annual accounts

Transaction revenue for the financial year ended 30 September 2021 was £9,408,000 (2020: £1,323,000), which represented 74% (2020: 80%) of total revenue.

Recurring revenue for the financial year ended 30 September 2021 was £3,274,000 (2020: £338,000), which represented 26% (2020: 20%) of total revenue.

Should be interesting to see the new subscription plans in the summer.

Reading my message as a quote makes me sound blunt. I don’t mean it to be. Was just saying it’s accurate.

Freetrade needs aggressive growth just to break even.

Sort of curious about how the EU launch is going and whether they have their own account counter.

So about 13500 users in 29 days going off this topics numbers. About 465 new accounts per day which is in line with the tweet.

Not to bad. Where did he get the 1.4 mil from? Not seen it mentioned

It’s amazing to see how Freetrade is growing and they’re already at 1 million users. In fact, they were at a million users last October if I’m correct. Since we don’t have access to any financial statements, I’d love to know how the company is growing month by month and how many users they have as of February 2022.

Well done Freetrade :raised_hands:t3::partying_face:

Note that the figure back in July is July this year. An older topic has been merged into this one which makes those posts look older than they should.

At the current rate of around 460 new users per day, sometime in March '23.
Hopefully things will pick up with the launch in Sweden.

Once they hit 1.5 million sign up’s then that should equate to 1 million ACTIVE users! APPROXIMATELY
