Selfwealth - a good experience

Post retirement, I’ve had a lot of enjoyment share trading on the Selfwealth platform. The low fees, real time data and easy to use premium app provide all the features I need for a quick turnover of shares when either day trading or holding longer term. I also greatly appreciated the efficient and effective service provided by the support staff and I thank Julian Landy in particular for overseeing the more complex financial and technical requirements. Given this level of personal support, I highly recommend Selfwealth to anyone wishing to build a share portfolio both easily and economically.
Kind regards,
Dr John Buxton

Excellent customer service

I didn't really use the platform for trading, however, when i accidentally sent a large sum of money to my self-wealth account, instead of another bank account HEATHER and DANNY were exceptional in providing support and reassuring me that I was in safe hands. My issue was resolved the same day.

Great Experience for new and intermediate users

I have spent the last 2 hours understanding the interface and platform and I am really happy with Selfwealth. The reason I left CommSec was pricing and some CDIA concerns. Selfwealth does not have those issues and the infuse is so much easier and straightforward to use. Setting a stop loss is a piece of cake here.

From Bank to Selfwealth

I moved some of my holdings from a major bank brokerage to Selfwealth. As with any move, there were issues that arose. These were resolved very quickly by Heather at Selfwealth, who was a great help to me. It was refreshing to have someone who cared about my experience, and who ensured the job was completed successfully.

Dealing with a complex Estate issue

I initially chose Selfwealth some years ago as the fees were lower than the other options I'd seen. Where they really came into their own however was when I had to administer the sale of some shares in my mother's estate. There were complications since I had previously tried to move her shares to SW and didn't realise they were in a state where SW had administration of them but the account details had never been completed, so couldn't be seen on the Dashboard. After her death I reached out to SW and Heather guided me through the process of completing the account, selling the shares and distributing the funds to the beneficiaries. I really appreciated the fact that the same person helped at each stage with minimal lag between emails; unexpected for a low-cost, online only service.

Quality service and knowledgeable people.


We created a Selfwealth account to transfer shares from my late father's estate and as I had never held shares before the process was a little daunting. Transferring shares from multiple companies to four trustees was not a simple process, as I quickly found out. I was very fortunate that my case manager was very supportive and knowledgeable throughout the journey. Which in fact was a very long one, over five months. Every time I contacted Annette, I was given a quick response and solution to each issue. I can't thank her enough for her pleasant attitude, knowledge and patience throughout. Making difficult situations easily solved. Thanks again to Annette and the team at Selfwealth, my first involvement has made me realise we chose the right company to look after our portfolio.

Excellent customer service

I had an issue with an issuer-sponsored holding. After 5 hours on the phone with Commsec and Computershare with no resolution, I was at my wits' end. I logged on to Selfwealth and was instantly connected via the live chat function to a proactive and highly capable customer service rep (Vavia), who went above and beyond to solve my problem. And she solved it very quickly. This experience has elevated my opinion of Selfwealth dramatically. Their customer service is excellent. I highly recommend Selfwealth to Aussie investors who care about fast, competent customer service. Commsec is an absolute joke!

SelfWealth - an excellent trading platform.

SelfWealth provides very affordable transactions costs, which makes the whole process very cost-efficient. The website is straightforward and easy to navigate - very easy to place orders - but if there are any difficulties, help is readily at hand, providing a very personalised touch.
Some things are still being developed e.g. the charting area, but that is a minor deficiency that will be addressed in time.
The staff at SelfWealth are very active in improving their service, and are in regular contact seeking feedback on how things could be improved - I have not come across this level of customer consultation before, and I would have no hesitation in recommending SelfWealth as an excellent trading platform.
