Review of the eToro, Social Investment Platform:

You dont actually own your shares

I was with eToro for a while and then holding GME shares. I wanted to direct register my shares but eToro won’t allow it as they are CFD’s bought with your money and not actual shares. I got out of there as soon as I can Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

eToro has a mix of crypto and traditional assets, and the social trading feature is pretty cool if you’re into seeing how others trade. The platform’s generally easy to use, though it can feel a bit busy at times Reviewed on: 7th November 2024

Will never use

The platform helpdesk is not helpful and always takes a long time to respond to your needs and by the time they do, it will be pointless. I believe they do that delibaretly. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

The least useful among its competitors

2
eToro does not provide actual shares or ETFs, but CFDs, which have higher fees and don't receive dividends. It charges high currency conversion fees, as well as a hefty $5 withdrawal fee. Generally, deposits and withdrawals are cumbersome. Except maybe for crypto, and leverage trading (which is risky) I see no use case that is as good as on other platforms. Interest rate on cash is much lower than competitors. Costumer service is slow Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Beware of this prop firm

I was a bit overwhelmed with eToro. Wasn't the easiest to navigate compared to other platforms which felt more helpful and intuitive for a beginner investor. I do like the idea of copying trades from successful traders, just not their yet with my investing knowledge. Reviewed on: 15th March 2024

I have been using eToro for many years and my experience with them has only got better. I have recommended them to many people and I only have positive things to say about them. Reviewed on: 14th March 2024

Good for beginners

A good amount of information is available about the stocks and definitely love the free seminars, weekly videos analyzing markets etc. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Simple, intuitive, social

I would highly recommend eToro's social investment platform to anyone looking to invest in a simple, intuitive, and social way. With its social aspect, low fees, user-friendly interface, and excellent customer support, it's a top choice for those looking to dip their toes into the world of investing or for experienced investors who want to try something new.
