Investing & Trading Referral Codes

Investing apps hand new customers a free share or cash bonus to get started — a genuine head start, as long as you treat it as a bonus on money you were going to invest anyway. Freetrade and Trading 212 both give a free share (you deposit a small amount to qualify), while InvestEngine pays a £20–£100 cash bonus on a £100 investment, and Robinhood offers a free stock.

Capital is at risk — investments can fall as well as rise, and these bonuses usually come with a minimum hold period and a qualifying deposit. If you're investing for the long term in low-cost funds rather than picking stocks, our Low-Cost ETF ISA guide is a better starting point than chasing the biggest sign-up bonus.
