| Pricing | SMART: free monthly fee, min 2 USD/EUR per order + 0.02 per share (US/Europe) · free tier: PROMO plan: free, new EU-resident clients only, zero commission on US/Europe/CIS trades, valid 30 days then auto-switches to SMART | 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 | Subscription plus per-trade commission (tiered) | Usage-based |
| Best for | Active, experienced European self-directed investors who want US IPO allocations plus Hong Kong and CIS market access under EU regulation, and who trade often enough to earn back a monthly subscription. | 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 first-time or small-balance investor, a buy-and-hold saver, or anyone who needs a published, current, flat-fee price list before opening an account — the per-share tiered model, expiring free plan and transfer-out fees all work against you. | 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.
