Demand is higher during ISA decision periods, when users are comparing platforms, checking charges and validating assumptions.

A calculator-led alternative to affiliate-style comparison

Investors often struggle to compare ISA platforms because fees are split across platform charges, dealing costs, FX charges, caps, tiers and product-specific rules. CompareStockISA turns those moving parts into a calculator users can adjust, inspect and compare across providers.

To our knowledge, no mainstream ISA comparison tool exposes platform, dealing and FX fee modelling in this transparent calculator format. The site is independent and informational: it does not give financial advice, make recommendations or tell users which platform to use.

Platform fees

Flat, percentage, capped, tiered and threshold structures.

Dealing charges

Share, ETF, fund and US dealing costs.

FX fees

FX costs on US shares and ETFs, based on your mix.

Public sources

Fee schedules, provider disclosures and official data links.

A supporter model built around trust

Supporters fund the work of maintaining a transparent comparison tool and keep their fee data easy to verify. The relationship is visible, limited and separate from the calculator method.

Improve data accuracy

A nominated contact and clear sources for platform fees, dealing, FX, account terms and product coverage.

Be recognised transparently

Factual industry supporter wording that signals support for fee transparency, not suitability or endorsement.

Fund independent comparison

A paid supporter relationship that leaves the figures, methodology and calculator results unchanged.

Recognition beside the fee data, not above it

Supporter recognition appears where users already review provider costs. The wording stays factual: support for transparent fees, not endorsement, recommendation or paid placement.

The badge signals a transparency commitment. It does not change the numbers, order, methodology or suitability messaging.

Optional website badge
