In the same period, live USD trading volume on cTrader grew by 105% as a result of a significant rise in trading activity across both broker and prop firm segments.

      Our renowned mobile platform, recently awarded Best Mobile Trading App, continues to set the benchmark for speed, reliability and usability. Navigation in the app is smooth. We optimise cTrader Mobile continuously for exceptional speed, with five times faster launch times and minimal latency across live and demo trading. Trading is efficient with advanced charting tools and real-time execution. In 2025, the app was tested across different networks, setups and regions, including mainland China. The results confirm that cTrader performs flawlessly. Within a year, cTrader was highly rated on Trustpilot by over 1,200 traders of all levels worldwide as a premium mobile trading experience.

      After years of development, Spotware introduced cBridge to market in 2025. A modern, broker-focused solution for liquidity connectivity, cBridge is highly cost-efficient, eliminating volume fees and hidden charges entirely. It combines a scalable modular architecture and workflow-first design. The validation of cross-settings and intuitive health checks of rule sets ensure safe operation.

       

       

      cTrader Store: a trader hub and growth engine for brokers

       

      Visual content

      cTrader Store has evolved into a central hub for traders. In less than a year, purchases increased sixfold. Millions of users now access thousands of trading bots, indicators and plugins, making it easier than ever to customise trading strategies and improve performance.

       

      For brokers and prop firms, cTrader Store provides an additional acquisition channel via dedicated Brokers, Props and Prop Challenges sections. It delivers built-in exposure to a daily audience of 10,000+ traders, helping to attract new clients organically at no extra cost.

       

      Native Python support

       

      Visual content

      In 2025, cTrader introduced industry-leading native Python support for the development of algorithms in cTrader Algo. Python is now the second language supported by cTrader Algo, along with C#.

      Unlike other platforms with limited or partial Python support, cTrader allows the creation of cBots and indicators directly in the platform. Traders and developers have a robust, production-ready environment for building sophisticated, automated strategies with full access to market data and execution tools.

       

      Scaling operations with AI

       

      Visual content

      In 2025, Spotware integrated AI into its core business operations, resulting in the faster development and delivery of new features for brokers and traders, as well as faster hypothesis validation. This significantly increased the frequency and quality of releases. 

      AI implementation has also strengthened our support operations. Broker support response speed has increased by 33%. In trader support, an AI-driven automation solution integrated with our internal knowledge base analyses incoming enquiries and generates responses automatically. As a result, 60% of trader enquiries are resolved by AI in an average of three minutes.

       

      Powerful real-time trader support

       

      Visual content

      Trader support is often limited or entirely absent in the industry. cTrader takes a different, trader-centric stance. Guided by trader feedback and current trends, we provide dedicated, real-time support to traders directly in the channels they use the most: email, ctrader.com, Discord and social media. Our support is accessible, responsive and practical, in line with our Traders First™ approach and our commitment to a consistently high standard of trader service.

       

      Website revamp

       

      Visual content

      In September 2025, Spotware launched a completely new corporate website to reflect the company’s product-led philosophy and commitment to delivering clear, measurable value to brokerages and prop firms. Site visitors will find a modern, premium brand identity, intuitive user journeys tailored to key audiences, and a comprehensive media kit with ready-to-use brand assets. The site also serves as a strategic tool for partners to quickly find relevant resources and to communicate their competitive advantages more effectively to traders.

       

      Global recognition

      “Spotware has always been at the forefront of innovation, and 2025 underscored this more than ever. We clearly demonstrated to the industry that we have evolved beyond a single-product platform developer, expanding our product offering through the introduction of cBridge and the rapid growth of cTrader Store. Behind this shift was a major upgrade in how we plan, build and deliver. We implemented AI across our core operations, significantly expanding our capabilities and setting a stronger foundation for what comes next. These milestones set a clear direction for 2026—and we will take it further.”
