About

Social Trading Guru is a platform that specializes in social trading, providing users with resources and insights to replicate the investment strategies of successful traders. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in London, UK, Social Trading Guru specializes in social trading solutions. In September 2017, Investoo. com acquired the firm for an undisclosed amount, marking a pivotal shift in its operational strategy.


The company has completed a total of 1 deal since inception. SocialTradingGuru. com, now integrated into Invezz, primarily focused on social trading, providing users with extensive resources on copy trading strategies and platforms. The site offered comprehensive guidance, reviews, and news pertaining to social and copy trading, enabling users to follow and replicate the investment strategies of successful traders.


Its core offerings included detailed reviews of popular platforms such as eToro and Zulutrade, alongside insights into the best traders to copy. The platform catered to a diverse clientele, including novice investors seeking to leverage social trading to enhance their portfolios and experienced traders aiming to optimize their trading strategies. Geographically, the services were accessible to users across North America, Europe, and parts of Asia, making it a global player in the social trading landscape. The revenue model of SocialTradingGuru.


com was primarily driven by partnerships and affiliate marketing, whereby the platform earned commissions for referring users to trading services and platforms. Clients engaged with the platform through various subscription services, receiving premium content and trading signals tailored to their investment needs. The revenue structure included direct transactions between the firm and its clients, exemplified by partnerships with trading platforms that provided access to educational resources and trading tools. Specific pricing plans for subscriptions were designed to accommodate different levels of investor engagement, though details on pricing were not disclosed.


Following its acquisition by Investoo. com in September 2017, Social Trading Guru is expected to leverage new resources for enhanced service delivery. The integration is anticipated to bring new tools and features aimed at expanding its reach in the social trading market. Future plans include targeting new geographic regions in Europe and Asia by 2024, aiming to attract a wider audience.


The recent acquisition provides additional funding that will be utilized to develop upcoming products and broaden marketing efforts in these new markets.
