How many users now?

[Jibou (JB)]

It’s been 10 days since the last count. Any new update?

[Dashriprock (Garry)]

Son signed up last night.
User number 2343**

[TickTock]

So we continue to track at ~ 500/day which means I think we will reach 250,000 users @11.31am on Oct 12th. Bomber jacket incoming

[szb (Sergey)]

My birthday accidentally. Would be great!

[TickTock]

Ha! Here’s the deal, if the Oct12 date actually happens then for sure it’s all yours my friend. BTW Happy Birthday when it comes…

[Rollingskies]

My predictor currently suggests 9 October.

[Gusclode (Augustus Clode)]

do we have any clue on what the number of ISA users there are on the platform? and people who have signed up for premium, as they are both as an important metric.

[zaccharles]

Only Freetrade would have access to that information.

[Nialljmaher (Jeff)]

Its been quite a few days since the last count. Any update?

[Slimyreid (Simon)]

Does anyone have an idea where we are on user count please?

[weenie]

My friend signed up on Monday, #2485**

[hookedinvesting (@hooked_investing(IG))]

That seems like a big jump, circa 1000 a day since last update

[BOOM]

Indeed…wonder what has caused the jump…

[SecureHttp]

Probably the turbulences in the market due to the second lockdown

[TickTock]

Looks like we have already smashed through the 250K ceiling. Bomber jackets all round I say. Well done FT team, absolutely smashing it

Well I got an email from NS&I informing me that they are destroying the interest rates on their accounts, if other institutions are following the same then maybe people are thinking now is the time to finally put their money to work.

I cashed in my premium bonds and bought GGP and my boys money is in an NS&I junior ISA and if Freetrade had a JISA I would move his money over asap.

Here’s an updated graph. It now shows up to 400k users and to May next year.

[Wulfy]

Great work zac. Did there used to be a graph that had the user numbers plotted against the last raise expectations? I’ve been following this thread that long I can’t remember if I’ve seen that for this years raise or last

[zaccharles]

I think it used to have something from round 5. I’ve just included the 2020 estimate and 2021-2023 projections from round 6.

It’s worth noting that these are projections of active users, while the graph is tracking total users. The round 6 pitch deck does show monthly active users, but not yearly active users, which I think is what is being projected on slide 17.

Morale of that story is that I would expect the total user line to need to go [well] above the blue dots.

[Wulfy]

Ahh that’s right, active users in the pitch. That’s great zac
