INVESTING IS ONE of the best ways you can make your money work for you, but not everybody knows where to get started. 

IG is a trading platform making it more accessible for regular people who want to learn how to ideally make some profit on what they’ve got in their bank account. IG Markets offers users €0 commission on shares and ETFs, and new customers can receive up to €200 when they deposit and invest at least €1,000 before 30 June.

With IG, the focus is clarity, flexibility, and giving you the tools to make informed decisions, rather than overwhelming you with terminology that’s designed to exclude normal people from getting in on the benefits of investment and trading. IG has been trusted by clients worldwide for over 50 years and is on the FTSE 100, meaning it is one of the most heavily traded companies on the London Stock Exchange.

This digital platform is built with a range of handy tools to help guide you from the first step of your investment journey. These include free educational support and a range of risk management tools. Before investing a penny, you can sign up for a demonstration account and explore the world of trading in a totally risk-free environment. 

Once you do get started, the first step you need to take is to decide exactly how much money you’re comfortable investing, and to make sure you do so within your own financial parameters. Nobody will be rushing you and there is no need to take big risks. You’re in control of how you choose to invest. 

Inform yourself about the markets you wish to trade in and then you can set about using IG to build your portfolio. 

By trading through IG, you’ll have your entire portfolio in one place, alongside insights that can help inform your decisions. You can fund your account through bank transfer, PayPal, Apple Pay or debit/credit card, and from there choose to go as big or as small as you’d like, learning the ropes, getting used to the markets and developing your own expertise. 

IG will give you access to over 17,000 markets where you can turn a profit, whether you want to opt for shares in start-ups operating in sectors bursting with opportunity, or to play it safely and invest your money in well-established global corporations known the world over.
