Behind the rapid rise of its global growth are mobile brokerages, equally on the rise for their ease of use and increased access to information, they are powering the way for the future of the trading industry.

As the platform operates exclusively through a mobile app, Trade Republic is making it easier than ever for a wider audience to get into trading and because of this, along with its low fees, the app has quickly become a popular choice for those looking to invest.

Since the company launched to the market in 2019, it has raised a significant amount of funding, amounting to over $1bn, and welcomes over one million users to its app, indicating the company's growth and reputation. Going forward, the company is focused on further expanding its offerings to more European countries and recently announced a step in this direction, having launched in Ireland.
