How affiliate links work

• ✓ Certain broker, app, or tool links redirect through a tracking URL (always routed via /go/... paths).
• ✓ If you open an account, subscribe, or complete a qualifying action after clicking, we may receive a commission.
• ✓ These commissions help cover hosting, data tools, and the ongoing work of producing guides, studies, and calculators.
• ✓ You never pay more as a result of using an affiliate link — the cost to you is the same as going directly.

Current affiliate partners

As of August 2026, QuantRoutine has affiliate relationships with the following brokers and tools. Several are managed through the financeAds network rather than contracted directly with the broker, which is noted where it applies.

• — DEGIRO — via financeAds. Appears in broker reviews, comparison pages, and cost calculators.
• — eToro — via financeAds. Appears in broker reviews and comparison pages.
• — XTB — via financeAds, UK programme only. Appears in UK broker and ISA content.
• — Lightyear — via financeAds. Appears in broker reviews and European comparison pages.
• — Mintos — via financeAds. Appears in review and comparison content covering the platform.
• — Trading.com — direct programme. Appears in European broker content.
• — Sharesight — direct programme. A portfolio tracking tool linked from tools and learn pages.
• — TradingView — a charting and research tool linked from study and learn pages.

Most brokers covered on this site are not affiliate partners. Non-partner brokers are reviewed under the identical methodology and are shown with a plain “Visit website” link rather than a tracked one, so you can tell the difference on any page.

Affiliate programmes start, end, and change terms. This list is reviewed periodically and reflects the relationships in place on the date shown at the foot of this page.

Editorial independence

• ✓ Broker rankings and study designs are based on costs, features, product access, and reliability — not affiliate payouts.
• ✓ We recommend low-fee or no-commission options even when they pay little or nothing.
• ✓ Critical commentary on a partner product is never softened because of the affiliate relationship.
• ✓ If a broker’s fees, FX pricing, or product access are poor, we say so regardless of partnership status.

How we label affiliate links

• ✓ Pages containing affiliate links include a disclosure statement near the relevant buttons or at the top of the page.
• ✓ The standard wording is: “We may earn a commission if you open an account using our links. You do not pay extra.”
• ✓ We avoid dark patterns, forced opt-ins, countdown timers, or misleading urgency copy.
