The Review

eToro is the world's largest social trading platform, pioneering the concept of copy trading — the ability to automatically replicate another investor's trades in your own account. With over 35 million registered users across 100+ countries, eToro has turned investing into a social experience.

The CopyTrader feature is the core product. You browse popular investors on the platform, see their historical returns, risk scores, and portfolio composition, then allocate capital to copy their trades automatically. When they buy, you buy. When they sell, you sell. It is essentially a marketplace of investment strategies.

eToro also offers Smart Portfolios — pre-built, thematically-organized portfolios managed by eToro's investment team. These cover themes like renewable energy, big tech, cryptocurrency, and more. The platform supports stocks, ETFs, crypto, and CFDs (in markets where allowed). Commission-free stock trading and a $50 minimum make it accessible.
