Our verdict on each
Freedom24
Freedom24 suits European investors who want stocks, ETFs, options and bonds under one CySEC-regulated roof, and who would rather not pay an annual account charge of €0. A euro minimum deposit of €0 keeps entry easy, while per-deal trading costs make it a better fit for occasional buyers than for frequent traders.
Wealthyhood
Wealthyhood suits Greeks and British retail investors who want to build a portfolio of stocks and ETFs without paying per trade. Trading costs €0 and the account fee is €0, so the cost side is the reason to look here first. The catch is a small product range and support by email and help centre.

Pros and cons
Freedom24
Pros
- Account fee €0 and inactivity fee €0 leave the cost of holding an account at nil.
- A minimum deposit of €0 sits well under the €6.17 median for stock brokers.
- A single account covers stocks, etfs and options, so an ETF, a bond and an option sit together.
Cons
- A stock trade fee of €2 ranks 126 of 161 on the site, well behind the field.
- Withdrawals cost EUR 7 per withdrawal each.
- Currency conversion is charged at 0.005% on positions held outside the euro.
Wealthyhood
Pros
- Trading stocks and ETFs costs €0 and the account fee is €0
- A minimum deposit of €1 and a minimum investment of €1 keep entry small
- Fractional shares and a mobile app are both available, with access on Web, iOS app and Android app
Cons
- Support runs on email and help centre only, with no phone or live chat listed
- The range is limited to stocks and etfs
- Investor compensation sits at EU ICS up to EUR 20,000, below larger cash holdings
Who each suits
Freedom24
Who it suits

- Savers who prefer a euro starting point of €0 and a firm authorised in Cyprus under 275/15.
- People who trade from a phone as well as a browser, since Freedom24 App and Freedom24 Web lists the Freedom24 App and web platform.
Who should look elsewhere
- eToro, if the cost of each trade decides it, because its stock trade fee is $0.
- Vantage, if you would rather start with a deposit of $5 than fund the account from the first unit.
Wealthyhood
Who it suits
- Greeks and British investors regulated in the UK and Greece, with the entity operating as Wealthyhood Europe AEPEY
- Beginners and experienced investors building a long term stock and ETF portfolio
- Small investors who want fractional shares and a low entry point
Who should look elsewhere
- Brokers wanting broader asset classes than stocks and etfs

Questions about each
Freedom24
What does a trade cost at Freedom24?+
A stock trade costs €2, with options at $0.65 per contract and currency conversion at 0.005%. That per-deal cost is the number to weigh, since the account fee of €0 adds nothing to it.
Is there an account fee or an inactivity charge?+
The account fee is €0 and the inactivity fee is €0. Both rank 1 on the site, so an unused account does not start costing money. That suits investors who top up in small amounts rather than trading often.
Wealthyhood
What does it cost to trade stocks and ETFs?+
Trading costs €0 and the account fee is €0, so there is no per trade charge or annual cost on the standard account. Wealthyhood runs a commission free model. The free bank transfers keep money moving in and out without a fee.
What is the minimum deposit and investment?+
The minimum deposit is €1 and the minimum investment is €1. That makes small, regular amounts workable, and fractional shares let a portion of a share be bought. The app and web platform both handle orders.
