Pros and cons
quantfury
Pros
- Stock trade fee of $0 ranks 1 of 161 brands in our data
- Account fee of $0 ranks 1 of 138 brands on our data
- Commission-free model on commission free for stocks, ETFs, forex, futures and crypto
Cons
- Support runs on help centre only, so questions about money and positions go through articles rather than a live team
- Margin is charged at 0%, but leverage up to 20x trading power magnifies how fast a losing position can grow
- The market list in stocks, etfs and forex stops short of the CFD and metal ranges that peers such as eToro and Vantage carry
Traders Place
Pros
- Regulated by Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), with investor protection of EU ICS up to EUR 20,000.
- A broad market list, stocks, etfs and crypto, covering equities, ETFs, bonds, funds and crypto.
- Fractional shares, crypto and a mobile app sit in crypto, fractional shares and mobile app, with Traders Place App as the platform.
Cons
- Contact options are limited to email, phone and help centre, with no live chat channel listed.
- The market list covers stocks, etfs and crypto, so forex and CFD traders are not served.
- Retail accounts that lose money run at 70.15% across the brands compared here, so a commission-free model does not remove the risk.

Questions about each
quantfury
What does it cost to trade stocks on Quantfury?+
The stock trade fee is $0 and the account fee is $0, under a commission-free model. In our data the trade fee ranks 1 of 161 brands and the account fee 1 of 138. Uninvested cash earns 4.5%, so holding a balance is not a drag.
Is my money protected if Quantfury fails?+
UK clients are covered by the Financial Conduct Authority licence 577611 and sit under the FSCS, with investor protection of FSCS up to GBP 85,000. Clients in the Bahamas, the US and Colombia are covered under their own regulators instead, under SIA-F204, CRD#: 318437/SEC#: 8-70934 and Resolution 2287 of 2024.
Traders Place
What does it cost to buy shares at Traders Place?+
Stock trades are charged at €0 and the pricing model is listed as commission-free, so no commission is added to a share purchase. The account fee is €0 as well, which keeps the cost of holding a plain brokerage account low for a buy and hold investor.
Does Traders Place charge to keep an account open?+
The account fee is €0, and the only account type listed is joint, as joint shows. That suits a couple holding securities together under a single pricing structure. Stock trades themselves are charged at €0, so the account charge is not offset by a per-trade commission.
