PrimaryBid Customer Reviews & Alternatives

Home > Reviews > PrimaryBid Review

PrimaryBid say they build technology that connects companies with their retail investor communities and power smart retail inclusion in global capital markets. Unfortunately, PrimaryBid no longer has IPO access for retail investors as the majority of their orders were coming from Hargreaves Lansdown, AJ Bell and Interactive Investor, who offer access to IPOs themselves.
