Before applying please ensure you read and understand the 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.

At a glance

  • An easy-to-use account that keeps your members involved but without losing control.
  • Your Club's 'lead investor' places deals on behalf of the members.
  • All members can have access to watchlists, research tools, news and information.
  • Invest in our full range of investments - UK and international shares, ETFs, ETCs, Bonds & Gilts, Funds, Warrants and Covered Warrants - all in one account.
  • Standard dealing fee £12.50, by phone or online. Plus reduced dealing rate once you've completed 100 trades in a quarter.
  • We take care of much of the paperwork, collect your dividends and even provide an end of tax year summary.

Trading features

  • 'Best execution' – as standard.
    We'll contact up to 17 different 'marketmakers' in order to get you the best price available, aiming always to beat the bid and offer price quoted on the Stock Exchange's systems.
  • Limit and stop orders
    For extra control over your dealing, place limit and stop orders on UK shares and covered warrants, valid for up to 90 days, at no extra charge. Plus we can advise you when your limits 'trigger' with an email or SMS alert.

Money management

  • Instant funding
    Use a VISA Delta or Switch/Maestro card. For other ways to credit your account see our FAQs.
  • No fee for dividend collection
    We'll collect your dividends, credit them to your account and provide you with an annual summary. You'll also earn interest monthly on the cash balance in your account.
  • Free income withdrawal
    You can withdraw income at any time and have the money paid straight to your UK bank account.

Please remember: The value of investments may fall as well as rise and you may get back less than you originally invested. Limited liability instruments mean that you cannot lose more than you have invested. The risks associated with different instruments will vary: you should choose investments appropriate to your needs and consider your overall mix of different investment types.
