FlexTrade rebrands cloud-based multi-asset EMS FlexNOW to Spark
“Our rebranding exercise will not have any impact on our day-to-day business. We will stay under the FlexTrade umbrella where we are able to continue developing new features for our Spark community which has been growing significantly since we started this project in 2019. Our main focus is to deliver a platform with no compromise to power and performance.”
FlexTrade has announced a major rebrand of FlexNOW to become Spark, a multi-asset EMS built for the cloud.
Spark provides a one-click installation with same-day onboarding for traders, brokers, and algos while remaining broker-neutral on the firm’s FlexLINK FIX Network.
The Spark team will focus on cloud-based innovation leveraging FlexTrade’s industry experience and trader feedback to serve the trading community with best in-class trading software that can be done on the desktop, mobile, or the web.
