IC Markets, one of the most recognized forex and CFD brokers globally, has taken a bold step toward simplifying the copy trading experience by integrating the cTrader Copy widget directly into its client portal. This strategic update allows users to explore, evaluate, and copy top-performing strategies-without ever leaving the broker’s website or needing additional login credentials.

A Seamless Social Trading Experience

With the new embedded widget, IC Markets has transformed its client area from a static dashboard into a fully interactive social trading environment. From browsing strategies to copying top traders, everything is accessible with just a few clicks.

This move reflects IC Markets’ ongoing commitment to delivering user-first, modern trading experiences for both new and experienced traders.

How Brokers & Prop Firms Can Benefit

For brokers and prop trading firms, this integration sets a strong example of how streamlined UX and embedded tools can drive user engagement and long-term loyalty. The cTrader Copy widget offers:

• Boosted trading volumes by simplifying access for copy trading newcomers
  
  
• Higher conversion rates due to reduced friction in the onboarding journey
  
  
• Improved client area utility, encouraging more active trading behavior
  
  
• Lower support overhead through seamless SSO access
  
  
• Faster trader activation and increased lifetime user value
  
  

A Low-Lift, High-Impact Integration

Developed by Spotware, the cTrader Copy widget is designed to be quick and easy to implement-requiring minimal technical setup. Yet it delivers substantial business impact, transforming the client portal into a monetization tool and a trader engagement hub.

Industry Impact

With IC Markets now offering copy trading directly within its portal, the line between traditional platforms and social trading ecosystems is quickly disappearing. For brokers and prop firms looking to stay competitive in a saturated landscape, embedded, frictionless tools like these may soon become essential-not optional.

As the industry shifts toward personalization, speed, and community-driven experiences, IC Markets shows what it means to stay ahead of the curve.
