Pros and cons
Abf Trade Eu
Pros
- Stock trade fee of $0 under a commission-free model, and deposits are free.
- Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission regulation with licence 171/12 and protection stated as EU ICS up to EUR 20,000.
- Support on email and phone, plus a demo account and a mobile app.
Cons
- A minimum deposit of $500 sits well above the site median of €4.64.
- The only account type on offer is corporate, so there is no personal or wrapper account to open.
- Support runs on email and phone only, with no live chat in the list.
PU Prime
Pros
- Covers forex, CFDs, metals, stocks and ETFs in one account (stocks, etfs and forex)
- Pick from MT4, MT5, PU Web Trader or the PU Prime mobile app (MT4, MT5 and PU Web Trader)
- A demo account and copy trading sit alongside the live accounts (demo account, copy trading and mobile app)
Cons
- The $50 entry is above the $0 and $5 starting points in this comparison
- Support runs through a help centre only, per help centre
- Retail trading losses run high across the site at 70.15%, so leverage of 1:1000 carries real risk
Who each suits
Abf Trade Eu
Who it suits
- Companies and entity accounts that can meet a $500 opening and want commission-free stock dealing.
- MetaTrader 5 users: the platform is MetaTrader 5 and a demo account comes with it.
- EU clients who want their balance inside the EU compensation scheme, stated as EU ICS up to EUR 20,000.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone starting small: CFI's minimum deposit is $0 and Vantage's is $5.
- Traders after crypto or futures: eToro lists stocks, etfs and forex, while this firm covers stocks, etfs and forex.
PU Prime
Who it suits
- Beginners building a first account on forex or CFDs
- Traders who want copy trading alongside manual deals
- Anyone happy to hold money with a US SIPC member rather than a UK or EU regulated firm
Who should look elsewhere
- CFI, if a $0 entry point matters more than US regulation
- eToro, if a wider market spread including crypto and futures fits a long term investor better
- Vantage, if a $5 floor suits a smaller first deposit
Questions about each
Abf Trade Eu
How much do I need to deposit to open the account?+
The minimum deposit is $500 on the corporate account, well above the site median of €4.64. The brand sits near the back of the field here, ranking at 178 of 213 compared on minimum deposit. Funding an entity rather than a personal pot is what that entry level is built for.
What does it cost to buy a share?+
Stock trades cost $0 on the commission-free model, ranking at 1 of 161 among the brands compared on this measure. Deposits carry no charge, and the model is commission-free rather than tiered. The dealing cost is close to nothing; the entry deposit is the number to plan around.
PU Prime
What is the minimum deposit at PU Prime?+
The stated entry point is $50 for a new account. That sits above the $0 and $5 starting points in this comparison, so a first deposit has to be larger here than with either.
Is PU Prime regulated and is my money protected?+
Protection runs through SIPC up to USD 500,000, listed under SIPC. The membership is recorded as SIPC member 3337, so the holding company can be traced against a public register rather than a claim on the website.
