About WeTheTraders

WeTheTraders exists because comparing trading platforms is harder than it should be — and too many comparison sites quietly rank by commission. We do the opposite.

What makes us different

• Commission-independent scoring, and we prove it. Affiliate status never changes a ranking.
• Radical freshness. Every platform shows a real last-checked date.
• A real trust & safety layer. Regulator lookups for the US and UK/EU, plus a prop-firm rule decoder, safety signals and a shutdown tracker.
• Beginner-first. A quick quiz, plain-English fee explainers, and clear "best for / avoid if" guidance.

Who we cover

Stock brokers, crypto exchanges, futures platforms, forex/CFD brokers, prop firms and trading tools — with accurate availability and regulation for both the United States and the UK/Europe.

Who we are

WeTheTraders is built and maintained by a small, independent editorial team. Every data point is checked against official sources — regulator registers, platform pricing pages and published terms — and re-verified on a rolling schedule rather than copied from other comparison sites. We are not owned by any broker, exchange or prop firm, and no platform can pay to change how it is scored.
