Today, FlexTrade’s FlexNOW, announces a major rebrand to become Spark, a multi-asset EMS built for the cloud. Spark was developed as a one-click installation with same-day onboarding for traders, brokers, and algos while remaining broker neutral on our FlexLINK FIX Network. The rebrand solidified the Spark team’s dedication to 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.

Adi Prnjavorac , General Manager, Spark EMS added:

‘’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.’’

Spark will continue to serve the trading community by doubling down on its commitment to:

  • Desktop Trading: Next generation desktop technology that is rich in functionality yet easy to install, use and deploy. Built with the intention to simplify the onboarding process on AWS.
