I'm planning to invest 200$ into something else, and I would say my risk appetite is medium. Is it better to just top up the 200$ into my current StashAway account instead of investing into another? What would you recommend for a beginner investor to work with?

Hi Anon,
Adding onto the discussion of other Seedly users here, you could explore cheaper robo-advisor alternatives and also consider options that can give you a greater variety of investment options. One such alternative is https://solutions.kristal.ai/seedlypost where the management fees are much lower (0%) for smaller amounts of investments.
Passive investment is a way you should definitely consider because the active approach is often time-consuming and usually does not align with DCA methods. Diversification would be your best ally as investing using an active portfolio typically adds unnecessary risk to your entire portfolio.
However, if you have some time on your side, you might want to consider exploring specific asset classes such as REITs or REIT ETFs as they are often a good option but that said, you should definitely consider what your broad investment goals are (i.e. Capital Appreciation, Dividends, Preservation or it could even be Education)
All the best in your investing journey!

With a very longterm horizon good choices could be:
-VOO or IVV (SP 500 Index) or on european stock exchanges: VUSA
-VT is a more diversified global passive indexing ETF
-Lion.Phillip S-REIT ETF with it's dividend distribution is my own choice for Singapore allocation, when the STI sorrily is not a good performer
You need a very cheap online broker
-for Singapore: POEMS or FSMOne
-for USA: TD Ameritrade or Charles Schwab
