The future of investing is yours

From the team that helped bring you TransferWise, Robinhood and Revolut, say hello to Lightyear. A new way to invest your money globally from just £1 or €1 with no trading fees on stocks.

For too long investors in Europe have been getting the short end of the stick. Limited access to markets combined with high fees have put ordinary investors at a disadvantage. We’re here to change that.

The world in your phone

Invest in over 3,000 global stocks and funds from Europe, the US and beyond, with absolutely no trading, account or custody fees.

Say goodbye to high minimums and barriers to entry. With fractional shares, you can start building a portfolio with just €1/£1.

Freedom from fees

Financial freedom shouldn’t cost the world. Our multi-currency accounts allow you to deposit, hold and invest in global stocks and funds, all under one roof.

You can invest in local stocks completely free from fees. And when it comes to foreign exchange (FX), we charge a simple flat 0.35% fee.

With fractional shares, you can invest in all of your favourite companies without high minimums or barriers to entry. Build a portfolio on your own terms by starting from just £1/€1.

Knowledge is power

A little knowledge goes a long way. Access live news feeds about the stocks you own, as well as professional analyst ratings & price targets.

We explain the lingo clearly to help grow your investing knowledge, and with Lightyear Profiles you can share strategies with your friends.

We’re proud to offer these features to help you build strong financial habits for life and become a more confident investor.
