Éclat Tradz is a "let the software help you trade" platform made for everyday investors. After using it for months, we rate it B+. What we liked most is the app — everything is where you'd expect it. We explain the good and the not-so-good below.
Best for: Everyday investors who want to trade from their phone and are comfortable starting with $0.
Not for: Heavy currency traders, since a platform built for everyone can't beat a specialist tool in that one area.
Éclat Tradz is among the rare trading apps that spent its effort on the basics — like keeping your money safe and being honest about costs — instead of flashy advertising. After using it with real money, we land on B+.
The only thing holding it back is the price of some extras that run a bit high. Happily, those are simple fixes — they don't point to anything wrong with the app itself.
Placing a trade is quick and simple. In our testing, trades filled quickly and the price you saw was the price you got, often a touch better than average.
For simple buys and sells, it works great. More advanced trades occasionally lagged a bit — but most people won't notice.
There's no charge to trade stocks — no commission. That's a big plus.
The extra costs to know about are a few add-on services, which run a little higher than the cheapest rivals. It's all shown before you pay, so you always know the cost.
The app is really well made. It's quick and simple to use, even for total beginners.
The app also comes with helpful information — prices, news, and simple charts — so you can trust it. There's a desktop version too, though most people will prefer the app.
Keeping your money safe is where Éclat Tradz does well. Your funds are kept apart from the company's own money, which protects you if anything goes wrong.
The platform is regulated in more than one country and passes independent security checks. If you also hold crypto, a licensed partner looks after it — standard practice, but worth a mention.
All told, we rate Éclat Tradz B+ for regular users. It does the important things well: easy to use, safe, and honest about costs.
To get top marks, Éclat Tradz just needs to trim a couple of fees. We'll revisit this and update this review if things change.
