Buchwertanz is an automated trading app built for everyday investors. Having tried it hands-on, we give it B+. What we liked most is the app — everything is where you'd expect it. Full details are below.
Best for: People who prefer using their phone and are able to begin with $0.
Not for: Advanced traders who need special tools, or anyone who needs to reach a person by phone at any hour.
Buchwertanz is among the rare AI trading platforms that put its money into being reliable — like keeping your money safe and being honest about costs — instead of flashy advertising. From what we saw in testing, we give it a score of B+.
The one thing we'd change is a few charges that run a bit high. The good news is these are easy for the company to fix — they don't point to anything wrong with the app itself.
Making a trade is easy. In our testing, everything went through without fuss and you usually got a fair price, often a touch better than average.
For simple buys and sells, it does the job well. More advanced trades weren't always as quick — worth knowing if you trade options a lot.
Buying and selling stocks is free — no commission. That covers what most people do.
Where you might pay more are things like sending money out by bank transfer, that are pricier than some rivals. None of it is hidden, so nothing sneaks up on you.
The app is really well made. It's fast, tidy, and easy to find your way around, even for total beginners.
You get useful research built in — charts, company info, and news — and it tells you where it comes from. There's a desktop version too, but the app is better.
Keeping your money safe is where Buchwertanz does well. Your money is held in a separate account, for your protection.
It's licensed and overseen by regulators and is reviewed by outside experts. If you also hold crypto, it's stored with a regulated custodian — standard practice, but worth a mention.
Overall, we're happy to give Buchwertanz a score of B+ for beginners and casual traders. It nails what matters: simple, safe, and fair.
To earn an even higher score, Buchwertanz just needs to trim a couple of fees. We'll revisit this and let you know if anything changes.
Yes. Moving your account in is supported, and Buchwertanz often refunds the exit fee your old app charges within reason. The move takes a few days.
Yes. Buchwertanz has a full phone app. It's designed for mobile first — everything works smoothly on a small screen.
Not that we found. Buchwertanz shows all costs up front — no subscription, no dormancy charge. A few add-ons cost more, but they're clearly labelled.
Yes, it is. Your cash is stored separately, which protects you if anything goes wrong. The platform is also regulated and checked by outside auditors.
For simple day-to-day trades, it's fine. If you use advanced options strategies, it can be a little slower. People trading a lot of forex might prefer a specialist app.
Yes. You can chat with support 24/7 and usually get a reply in a few minutes. Complex problems reach a senior agent without the runaround. Phone help is weekdays only.
