Platform Spotlights

Reviews of money tools we’d actually use — UK & US

Platform Spotlights is where we review the investing platforms, savings apps, and money tools that actually hold up in real life — not just in marketing.

If you’re building wealth the Slow Money way, you don’t need hype, hacks, or “get rich quick” nonsense. You need trustworthy tools, transparent fees, and a setup you can stick with for years.

Here you’ll find honest, practical reviews designed for UK readers who want to invest steadily, reduce financial stress, and make confident decisions around ISAs, SIPPs, long-term investing, budgeting, and everyday money management. We look at what each platform is best for, what to watch out for, and how it fits into a calm, long-term strategy.
