Salary sacrifice question - Can i buy stocks like you would on an app?

I am thinking about setting up salary sacrifice on my inside ir35 contract.

If i choose interactive investor or Hargreaves landsdown (both supported by paystream)

Do the funds go directly to my SIPP cash balance each month, so i can choose to buy the stocks i want via the web application? If not, how do they work?

I built a daily contract alert tool after using it myself to find multiple roles

I’ve been contracting in the UK for over a decade, mostly across IT/cyber, and one thing that has always annoyed me is how fragmented the contract market is.

Good roles are hard to find and disappear quickly, so I built a small tool for myself.

It finds the new contracts from top tier sources every morning, filters for live contract roles, removes duplicates, and emails me only the fresh matches based on the keyword/location I care about.

It genuinely helped me spot and secure multiple contract opportunities because I was seeing roles early, without having to manually check the same sources every day.

I’ve now turned it into a service called DayRatePing:

I’m also continuously improving the sources behind it and making weekly updates.

I hope you will find it as useful as i do.

Hi everyone,

I’m a solo male traveller from the UK visiting Shanghai for two weeks in May.

I’m looking to hire a photographer to take some natural, high-quality photos of me for a dating profile. Ideally, I’d like someone who knows good photo spots around Shanghai, including bars, restaurants, scenic streets, rooftops, or other stylish locations.

I will pay food/drinks where needed, as well as pay properly for your photography services.

A female photographer would be preferred, mainly because I’d value input on what works well for dating profile photos, but I’m open to anyone with the right experience and portfolio.

Thanks!
