XTB

An independent look at XTB's fees, features, and who it tends to suit - not a recommendation.

Overview

XTB is a Poland-founded, publicly listed broker offering stocks, ETFs, and CFDs. It combines a €0 commission structure for standard trading volumes with automated Investment Plans, aimed at both new and more active investors.

Fees

Stock commission€0 (up to €100,000/month), then 0.2% (min €10)
ETF commission€0 (up to €100,000/month), then 0.2% (min €10)
FX fee0.5%
Inactivity fee€10/month, after prolonged inactivity
Minimum investment$10 per instrument
Worth noting: The 0.5% FX fee is on the higher side compared to some other brokers here - it's worth factoring in if you trade frequently in a non-base currency.

Stocks & ETFs

XTB offers commission-free trading on stocks and ETFs for investors trading under €100,000 per month - comfortably covering most retail, buy-and-hold investors. Above that volume, a 0.2% commission applies.

Fractional Shares

XTB supports fractional shares, allowing investment from as little as $10 per instrument.

Savings Plans

XTB offers "Investment Plans" - a way to set up recurring, automated purchases into chosen stocks or ETFs on a schedule you define.

XTB operates through multiple regulated entities depending on client location, including the FCA (UK), the KNF (Poland), and CySEC (Cyprus).
