Hey guys, it's sasha today is a really exciting day, something that i didn't expect to happen quite so soon, but i have a major announcement to make today. I am launching a brand new, completely free, investing app that will be available in the uk, united states and 104 different countries all over the world. I've been working this project in the background for some time, and i wanted to share all the details with you, because this is going to change the world of investing in a big way. I am finally today able to break the news because our fca authorization just come through, starting with q2 2021, so today's the first day when i've been able to actually make this public, let me share a few details that i think you might find really really exciting.

First, i've managed to gather some really amazing people to work with me on this app. I couldn't reveal this until now, but you might have noticed that some really prominent fintech people have recently left their jobs and, if you've not been following the world and ex-ceo of monzo tom blomfield will be joining and taking the role of interim ceo and ian fulham. The ex-cto of free trade, who has recently left that place, is joining to head up the tech side of the business. Now i personally will be the chief marketing officer.

I've been planning this for some time, so you can understand now maybe a little bit more detail. Why i actually started this channel and why i've been doing all of this work in the run-up to launching this? We have gone really bold, with a name and with a domain and all of those things, the new app will be called invest.com. This will be a platform for long-term investors, not for trading not for short-term day trading or anything like that, and i wanted to reflect that in the name. So that's why we've gone with investor.com.

We are currently in the process of raising funds to actually buy the domain. It costs 6.4 million pounds. So hopefully it's going to happen really really soon as soon as we've managed to get all of that money together. Now i want to make sure this platform doesn't do what everyone else does i didn't want to do a bait and switch.

I didn't want to do anything like that. I want to make it completely free for people who wanted to go and do investing now. This investing platform will have absolutely no fees of any kind, no account management fees, no trade fees, no foreign exchange fees, no depositor withdrawal fees at all. The platform will offer an unparalleled 100 000 different stocks, etfs funds and all kinds of other commodities, and things like that for long-term investors from markets all over the world.

This is a first. We will also be the first and only platform to offer 24-hour trading. Now our post-market hours for investing in u.s companies, for example, we run from 4 p.m - eastern time when they close until 9 30 a.m on the next working day when they reopen. This is gon na break everything.

This is really gon na change things to simplify the interface we've made a few custom layouts based on the user profile, if you're a young investor under the age of 25, for example, we've made some things that are really simple and nice by showing you the only Things you really want to go and invest your money into. This makes the layout super easy for more mature investors, we've made even more customization, allowing them to put their money into dividend-bearing stocks, bonds and other things like that as well now, but the obvious question: how would this platform be sustainable if we're not charging any fees? How will we be able to earn money, and how will we not revert to doing something in the future? That's different. Well, this is where it gets really clever. We've built a number of really cool revenue streams which make this completely free, investing app, sustainable, profitable and and allow us to actually earn revenue want to make sure that we never stay step away from that.

So so here is exactly how it's going to work. Each time you make a trade, you will have to just go and watch a short ad. The moment you go and place the trade once you've watched the ad. Then the trade will execute at the price at which you originally set it.

If you don't watch the ad, then the trade won't execute. So this is a model, that's really popular in games with other kinds of apps. So you probably think hey, that's, okay! I use it everywhere else, so we thought why not go and bring that into the world of investing. It just seems to make so much sense, but it gets even better.

We expect to earn between one and two cents per ad on that platform because of the relatively high rpm that finance ads get and we are going to give our users you the opportunity to benefit from these ads as well. You can go and watch ads voluntarily through the platform, and these will last anywhere between 30 and 90 seconds and for every 100 ads you watch. We will credit your account with a one dollar token. Once you've collected enough tokens, you can exchange them for free shares and there is no limit on how many free shares you can.

What you can get to ensure the platform earns enough revenue to pay for itself. We're going to show you an ad when you first open the app as well, so that we can get that extra little revenue stream. And if you plan to log in during the busy hours just after market opens or just before it closes in the last half an hour, you're gon na have to watch two ads before you can actually see your portfolio and do anything we're going to launch the Beta version of the app in the next few days make sure that, if you're interested in joining leave a comment below so that you can go and sign up, everyone leaves a comment: we're going to go and send you an email to get you onto the list. If you leave a comment and hit the like button, we're actually going to go even further we're going to give you five free shares worth up to ten thousand dollars.

When you first open your account for the first 1 000 people to sign up we're going to give you a unique opportunity to open up a diversified portfolio of things that are guaranteed to go to the moon with just one click of a button without having to Watch any ads, so if you're interested make sure you go and do that and i'll see you guys in the next few days once we are live and running you.
