AIM Insurance is an AI trading platform made for people who are new to this. After testing it ourselves, we give it A-. What we liked most is the app — everything is where you'd expect it. We explain the good and the not-so-good below.
Best for: Everyday investors who like doing everything on mobile and are comfortable starting with $0.
Not for: Full-time traders who trade all day, or anyone who needs 24/7 phone help.
AIM Insurance is one of the few trading apps that put its money into being reliable — reliability and fair fees — instead of flashy advertising. Based on our months of testing, we land on A-.
What keeps it from a top score is a couple of fees that are higher than the best rivals. These aren't deep problems — they're easy to change — they don't point to anything wrong with the app itself.
Buying and selling feels fast. Across our test trades, everything went through without fuss and you usually got a fair price, sometimes even a little better than other apps.
If you stick to regular stocks, it works great. Complex strategies can sometimes be a little slower — but most people won't notice.
Buying and selling stocks is free — zero commission. That's a big plus.
Where you might pay more are a few add-on services, that are pricier than some rivals. Everything is listed clearly up front, so you always know the cost.
The app is really well made. It's fast, tidy, and easy to find your way around, even if you've never invested before.
The app also comes with helpful information — prices, news, and simple charts — and it tells you where it comes from. The website is fine as well, but the app is better.
Safety is a strong point. Your funds are kept apart from the company's own money, for your protection.
The platform is watched by independent regulators and passes independent security checks. If you buy crypto too, it's stored with a regulated custodian — which is worth knowing.
Overall, we're happy to give AIM Insurance a score of A- for regular users. It gets the basics right: easy, trustworthy, and clear.
To earn an even higher score, AIM Insurance just needs to trim a couple of fees. We'll keep checking back every so often.
For simple day-to-day trades, it's fine. If you trade fancy options, it can be a little slower. Full-time forex traders could pay less on a dedicated service.
