IC Markets goes live with cTrader Copy Trading widget
IC Markets, a leading Forex and CFDs provider, offering trading solutions for active day traders, scalpers and traders new to the forex market, has announced the successful integration of the cTrader Copy widget into its client area. This marks a step forward in delivering a faster, simpler and more engaging trading experience by enabling direct access to the cTrader Copy service without ever leaving the broker’s website.
With this integration, IC Markets reinforces its commitment to staying at the forefront of trader-centric innovation, enhancing both the usability of its platform and the accessibility of professional-grade trading tools for all users.
Why IC Markets integrated cTrader Copy widget and how it pays off
In today’s fast-paced trading environment, user expectations are evolving rapidly. Traders demand speed, simplicity and frictionless user journeys but brokers often face challenges like separate logins to trading platforms, client areas that don’t encourage active trading and limited tools to retain new users.
To tackle these hurdles and transform the way new and experienced traders engage with copy trading, IC Markets implemented the new cTrader Copy widget specially designed to help brokers optimise their traders’ experience. The widget enables the broker to embed cTrader Copy directly into their existing client portal, ensuring users can explore, evaluate and copy top-performing strategies – all without leaving the website or requiring additional login credentials.
This strategic move brings a host of benefits to IC Markets:
- Boosted Trading Volumes through easy access to cTrader copy trading for users with no prior experience
- Higher Conversion Rates as the simplified, embedded experience reduces drop-offs during onboarding
- Improved Client Area Utility transforming the portal from a passive account dashboard into a fully interactive trading environment
- Reduced Support Load thanks to the seamless SSO-based access and streamlined login process
- Accelerated Engagement and Retention especially among new users seeking a less technical entry point into the world of trading
A low-lift high-impact tool for broker success
cTrader Copy widget’s ability to increase user engagement and extend the trader lifecycle makes it a strategic addition to any client area. Traders benefit from immediate access to top-performing strategies within a familiar environment and brokers can rest assured that the integration supports a modern, user-first experience.
For brokers looking to implement the solution, integration is both quick and straightforward. To get started, they simply need to contact Spotware to activate the embedded cTrader Copy service, ensure their CRM supports user registration and authentication and apply a simple redirect in the client area to enable SSO-based access. The low-lift setup makes it an attractive solution for any broker seeking to improve onboarding, accessibility and client engagement in one move.
