Your AJ Bell account costs depend on:

1. The types of funds or shares you own
2. How frequently you deal

When you buy or sell an investment, you pay a dealing charge. Then, there is an account charge for holding it. Dealing and account charges differ for funds and shares – you can use our charges and rates calculator to find your overall costs.

For example, if you make 10 or more online shares deals in January, then the frequent dealer charge of £3.50 will apply for February.
