Trading 212 - How do I get the free shares?

Can someone walk me through how I get the free shares?

I have never had an account before.
Opened one, and have added £100+ in a S&S ISA.  I've chosen my "pie" and from what I understand, on Monday, Trading 212 will buy shares in my chosen pie and I'll be away.

How do I see the free shares and decide where I want to invest them?

  • 212 decide what shares you get for free, you have no input. Its automatic, so on Monday you'll see £50 of shares in your account in a random company. You can then sell them, or keep them as long as you want. If you sell them immediately, you can't withdraw the cash for 30 days.
