Our verdict on each
eToro
eToro suits readers who want to hold shares, ETFs, crypto, forex and CFDs in one app without paying commission on trades. Costs look light on the standard account, with a stock trade fee of $0 and account fee of $0, though the account fee applies to the virtual portfolio rather than every standard account.
Webull
Webull suits US retail investors who want a single app for stocks, options, futures, crypto and retirement saving, and the fee line is the draw: a stock trade costs $0. Investor protection is SIPC up to USD 500,000, though the account range is narrow.

Pros and cons
eToro
Pros
- No commission on share dealing: stock trade fees are $0
- No account fee on the standard dealing account: $0
- Regulated in Cyprus by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission, and a SIPC member in the US
Cons
- A separate management fee of 0% applies to the managed portfolio service, so headline dealing costs are not the whole bill
- Support runs on help centre only, so there is no stated phone or live chat route for account problems
- The same commission-free model at XTB comes with a stated stock trade fee of €0, so commission alone does not separate the two
Webull
Pros
- A stock trade costs $0 and an options contract $0 on the ira account.
- Investor protection is SIPC up to USD 500,000, with registration under FINRA, SEC and SIPC.
- A single app covers stocks, etfs and options, so shares, bonds, funds, options, futures and crypto sit together.
Cons
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre, with no live chat listed.
- Account choice is narrow, with ira the only type listed.
- Across the brokers compared, the middle retail loss share is 70.15% and the top of the range 88%.
Who each suits
eToro
Who it suits
- Beginners who want commission-free share dealing plus fractional shares
- Readers who want stocks, ETFs, crypto, forex and CFDs in one place
- Anyone saving in a currency other than US dollars who wants to watch the cost of conversion
Who should look elsewhere
- Readers who want a stated phone or live chat support channel, since support runs on help centre
- Day traders who judge a broker on spreads alone, as no spread figure is listed
- Anyone wanting managed portfolios at no cost, since the management fee is 0%
Webull
Who it suits
- US retail investors who want stocks, options, futures and crypto under a single login
- Beginners using the demo account in crypto, demo account and fractional shares before committing money
- Retirement savers who want $0 stock trades in the same app
Who should look elsewhere
- eToro, if you want forex and CFDs, since stocks, etfs and forex include them
- CFI, if your focus is forex and CFDs rather than stocks, etfs and options
- Vantage, if you trade metals and CFDs, which its forex, cfds and stocks cover

Questions about each
eToro
What does it cost to buy shares with eToro?+
The stock trade fee is $0, and the account fee is $0. Both sit at the low end of the market, and eToro is ranked at 1 on trade fees and 1 on account fees among the brands compared here. Currency conversion can still apply if your balance is not in the account currency.
Is there an account fee on the standard eToro account?+
The account fee is $0 for the standard dealing account, which is why eToro places at 1 out of 138 brands on that measure. The managed portfolio service is charged differently, at a management fee of 0%, so treat the dealing and portfolio costs as two separate lines.
Webull
What does it cost to trade?+
A stock trade costs $0 and an options contract $0, on the ira account. The pricing model is commission free, and incoming stock transfers are free. Costs stay low, though they do not decide whether a trade makes money.
Is my money protected if the firm fails?+
Accounts sit with WEBULL FINANCIAL LLC. Investor protection is SIPC up to USD 500,000, and registration with FINRA, SEC and SIPC applies, with SIPC membership listed as SIPC member 71394. Low costs do not change that, so weigh the retail loss figures before you trade.
