Investing and trading platform IG today announces the launch of zero-commission trading on its three most popular cryptocurrencies - Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana - making IG one of the lowest-cost providers in the UK market for crypto.From today, IG customers trading these cryptocurrencies will pay only a 0.07% external exchange fee charged by IG’s liquidity partner, offering a significant saving versus other well-known platforms. By removing commission, IG aims to reduce friction in crypto investing, helping both new and existing clients build diversified portfolios more cost-effectively. IG already offers commission-free investing in stocks, ETFs and funds across ISAs, SIPPs and GIAs. IG UK and Ireland Managing Director Michael Healy said: “We’re building the UK’s most comprehensive low-cost investing experience, giving clients access to a wide range of markets without unnecessary barriers or cost. Removing commission on our three most widely traded cryptocurrencies is a natural step in this journey, helping to make crypto investing more accessible.“Investors shouldn’t have to choose between value and trust when buying crypto. Now they can access the lowest-cost offering in the UK for Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana through a FTSE 100-listed platform.”Table shows costs for a UK investor buying £100 in bitcoin across different investment platformsProviderInitial investmentTotal paid in commission / spreadOther chargesTotal costIG£100£0£0.07£0.07eToro£100£1.80Up to £0.50 extra during high volatility£1.80-£2.30Revolut£100£1.49 (trading fee)£0£1.49Binance£100£1.00 (1% spread fee on buy)£0£1.00Bitstamp£100£0.10Variable loan interest and margin interest fees£0.10+*Pricing table excludes paid subscription-based offerings from other platforms; Bitstamp fees for ‘Basic Trading’ platform.
