AquaCred Ltd Fee Schedule

AquaCred Ltd believes that technology empowers traders to be more profitable, thereby enhancing our clients' economic freedom. Technology also enables us to provide transparent and straightforward prices with 0 commission trades and no deposit minimums.
We make money the same way every other broker makes money, but with one less revenue line item: commissions. In order to keep the lights on, we optimize the back-end revenue streams that every other broker (traditional or non) utilize to generate revenue. Simply put, these are stock loans, interest on free credit balances, margin interest and payment for order flow. More information on this can be found in our SEC Rule 606 disclosure.
