| Pricing | $0.003 per share (under 500k shares/month) plus CenterPoint Web at $20/month · free tier: None; a demo 'test drive' is available via a request-a-demo page | Reported €1 per trade (third-party sources only — vendor pricing-scheme page could not be retrieved) · free tier: No subscription fee; savings plans reported free of charge (third-party sourced); card described by vendor as 'subscription free' |
| Pricing model | Usage-based per-share/per-contract commissions plus platform and market data subscriptions | Usage-based |
| Best for | Funded, full-time US equity day traders and short sellers running six-figure-plus monthly share volume who need route selection, hard-to-borrow locates and Level 2 order entry, and who will clear the volume threshold that waives platform fees. | Eurozone beginners making regular small euro-denominated ETF or savings-plan contributions who want near-zero cost, a single simple app, and are comfortable with app-only support. |
| Avoid if | You are a buy-and-hold or occasional investor (inactivity fee and per-share commissions punish low activity), want commission-free retail trading, need forex, futures or crypto, are unwilling to negotiate your entry commission tier, or require a broker with a visible independent user-review track record. | You need phone or human support, are likely to hit an edge case (inheritance, cross-border or in-kind transfer, business account), trade actively across venues and instruments, would be materially harmed by a temporary account freeze, or are outside Germany assuming German feature and interest-rate parity. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
