Fee comparisons

Compare Investment Platforms

Detailed fee breakdowns for every platform pair. See exactly when one becomes cheaper than another.

Comparing investment platforms isn't just about who charges the lowest headline fee — most UK platforms price differently depending on whether you hold funds, ETFs or shares, and whether you're investing £5,000 or £250,000. A platform that's cheapest for a small ETF portfolio can easily be the most expensive once you're holding funds at scale. Pick any two platforms below for a side-by-side breakdown, including the exact portfolio size at which one becomes cheaper than the other.
