Choose your account
Match our services to your needs.
We understand that investing can be tricky enough: after all, investments aren't the right thing for everyone because when you invest you can lose money as well as gain. So you don't want any added complications. At the heart of all our account services lies one simple principle – making our accounts as easy and as straightforward as possible.
You'll have secure, online access 24/7; telephone support that includes Sunday afternoons, and a special messaging service via your account that means we can keep you in touch with important details concerning your investments, and you call tell us about things of importance to you, all in one place.
Before you decide you should read our Investment Risk Warnings and other important information
Please bear in mind that:- The value of investments can fall as well as rise and any income from them is not guaranteed. You should be prepared to lose your investment. Past performance is not a guide to future performance.
- Selftrade does not provide investment advice. If you are in any doubt as to the risk or suitability of an investment or product you should seek advice from an independent financial adviser.
Different services, consistent service
Our accounts enable you to see just what your investments are worth, how they've risen or fallen and all provide the same fast and easy way to buy and sell. And they save paperwork: we'll take care of much of that for you, seeking your instructions when it's necessary –in the event of a takeover or merger for instance - and carry out your wishes.
We've accounts to suit all types, whether you're investing for yourself, your kids or with friends in an Investment Club. All offer easy use, a range of investments to choose from and full access to all our research, information and online tools. Remember some have different tax treatments to others or are restricted by HMRC regulations as to how much you can invest, or what you can invest in.
