If you\u2019re just starting out with investing<\/a>, learning resources are a great tool to give you the know-how. One of our favourite resources to learn how to invest is a demo account, which interactive investor offers. This lets you invest with virtual funds, which can be replenished if you find yourself losing all of your money (don\u2019t we all wish our real accounts did that?). This way, you can have a go at investing without using real money.<\/p>

Both interactive investor and Freetrade have a selection of guides to help you learn. interactive investor\u2019s got videos to walk investors through each journey. <\/p>

Winner: interactive investor<\/p>

Bottom line: Is interactive investor better than Freetrade?<\/h3>

On the whole, interactive investor is better than Freetrade. It\u2019s a really comprehensive platform with a great range of investments available. We really like that it has a demo account<\/a> to let you try out the platform before you begin. <\/p>

That being said, Freetrade is a very good alternative platform to interactive investor, with comparable features and investments available. Freetrade\u2019s fees are a huge benefit of the platform, and it is regularly adding new features that are likely to eventually bring it in line with interactive investor. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
