Just recently, I looked into stock investment apps in Thailand and was fascinated—because there are so many options, and each one has its own strengths. The fees are different, and the markets they support are also different. So I want to share which apps are available right now and which one is best suited for whom.

If you look at it overall, the trend for investment apps now is that commissions keep getting lower, and features keep improving. But that also makes it harder to choose. I think the issue is that there is no single app that’s best for everyone. An app that’s cheap for someone who buys once a month could be very expensive for someone who trades every day—so it’s the opposite, too.

So I’ve allocated investment apps according to different types of people. If you’re a beginner who is just starting out with Mitrade and Dime!, those are the best choices. Mitrade is good because it has 0% commission, covers 700+ assets worldwide, and also offers a free Demo Account with no expiration date so you can try it out first. Dime! is suitable for people with limited funds—you can start with just 50 baht to buy fractional shares, and it lets you use Thai baht directly.

And if you want to trade multiple markets—US, HK, and Europe—in a single app, InnovestX covers the most comprehensively. I found that it also has Offshore Fund, which is suitable for people who want to diversify their investments, but the minimum per transaction is higher (around 160 baht).

For active traders who trade very frequently, Liberator has a Flat Rate of 999 baht per month for unlimited trading. This kind of plan is more worthwhile than paying per-commission transaction when you have to trade many times in a day. I think this is where Liberator is much better than other apps.

For technical traders, Webull has more than 50 indicators, good charts, and real-time data—but the UI is a bit complex. On the other hand, if you focus specifically on Thai stocks, especially SET, Bualuang Securities’ Streaming is the best. It has accurate information and also supports TFEX.

Right now, I think investment apps in Thailand have improved a lot. Most have been licensed by the ก.ล.ต. (Thai SEC), so you don’t have to worry about safety. But the important part is choosing an app that matches your own style. If you’re a beginner, I recommend trying Mitrade’s Demo Account first—practice trading with 50,000 baht in virtual money for free—so you can understand the system and see whether you’re ready.

What I want to emphasize is: no matter which app you choose, invest with money that won’t become a problem if you lose it. It shouldn’t be borrowed money or money for rent, meals, or daily expenses. And you should set a plan before you click buy—how long you will hold, how much loss you can accept, and what profit level will make you sell. If you follow this, you’ll still be better off than most beginner investors. The rest comes gradually, little by little.
