Good. A big player - so you can tend to get that uninterested-in-the-small-guy vibe. |
City Index are amongst the leaders in the market in terms of innovation - they were the first to bring out the iPhone app. A trusted provider that lists Barclays and TD Waterhouse as White label customers.
City Index have also just unveiled a new and improved spread betting site. We don't like how hard they push their mobile spread betting platforms. We never recommend any spread bet decisions are made on a mobile app.

Spread Co do offer one-on-one assistance over the phone, via a webinar or even in their offices in Northwood Hills. |
We see the biggest advantage of Spread Co being the fact that they charge on average the lowest financing costs in the industry, with no charges to roll a short non-FX position overnight. This can make a big difference to your overall returns particularly when you are playing the long game.
Remember this is a major area of profit for spread betting companies, and therefore a loss to the client.
A brand that entered the UK market in 2006, not as well known as other major players like IG, Capital Spreads and CMC markets, which of course works against them when trying to entice new clients.

As a City Index white label you are going to find the support function is tightly aligned to Finspread's bigger sibling. Live online chat available |
We find that Finspreads fills a unique and vital space in the spread betting scene by catering to the 'small' guy. By this we refer to the trader who does not necessarily have a big spread betting deposit. The minimum stake requirement (amount you trade per point) is significantly less on the majority of financial products than it is at the majority of spread betting companies out there. This means the trader can risk less per trade - thereby increasing their chances of being successful in the long run.

Good support. |
Spreadex was established in 1999, and is one of the original spread betting providers. In May 2006, Spreadex launched an online sports spread betting service and subsequently in 2007 they integrated an online financial trading platform so clients could deal online instead of just by telephone. With Spreadex you can place your position on the financial markets, and after that go onto their sport betting site.

Unfortunately support levels appear to have slipped. Previously we had noted great customer support but have since downgraded our view on this front. |
As with our comment in the adjacent column, we find while at one time Delta Index were innovating their product offering they have since cooled down on this front. We are therefore dropping this spread betting company to the bottom of our recommendation list.
