Trade Republic Referral - 3% interest

Your referrer's review

"I'd opened a PEA at a traditional bank a few years ago and barely touched it, put off by the dated interface, trading fees that made small orders barely worthwhile, and the overall perceived complexity. Discovering Trade Republic completely changed my relationship with investing. The first shock was the interface: clean, modern, mobile-first, with clear charts and intuitive navigation. Within a few minutes I'd opened my account, submitted my documents, and was ready to start investing. The second shock was the fees: €1 per order, regardless of the amount. This simple pricing model radically changes the investment strategy that becomes possible. When each order costs €1, you can invest €50 a month for 2% in fees — which is still reasonable. At a traditional bank, a €50 order would have cost between €5 and €10, or 10 to 20% in fees, making DCA on small amounts economically absurd. Today, I've set up scheduled savings plans across several ETFs: a global ETF, a bond ETF, and a European small-cap ETF. These plans run automatically each month, with even lower fees on savings plans. It's exactly the strategy every passive long-term investing book recommends, and Trade Republic has made it accessible to everyone. What many people don't know is that available cash in the account earns 4% interest, which is better than most traditional savings accounts. I've stopped keeping money in a savings account and centralised everything at Trade Republic. The up to €500 in shares bonus for new customers via referral is particularly generous and lets you start with a position right away. For first-time stock investors who want to get serious without being eaten alive by fees, Trade Republic is today the best option on the European market."
