Financial spread betting and CFDs share a close technical and operational relationship. Both are leveraged trading products, and both require precise pricing, risk management, and execution systems. Fintechee leverages its proven CFD infrastructure to deliver a flexible and fully white-labeled spread betting solution for brokers, minimizing development overhead while maintaining high performance and reliability.

Shared Technical Foundations Between CFD and Spread Betting

At the core, spread betting and CFDs rely on similar trading mechanics:

• Both offer leveraged exposure to financial instruments without ownership of the underlying asset

• Both depend on real-time market data for pricing and execution

• Both require robust order matching and risk management engines

• Both rely on backend infrastructure to maintain accurate client balances, positions, and margin requirements

By building on CFD infrastructure, Fintechee ensures that spread betting inherits the same speed, stability, and scalability already proven in live trading environments.

Pricing, Spread, and Point-Value Configuration

While the core engine can remain largely the same, spread betting introduces a point-based profit and loss calculation rather than lot-based calculations used in CFDs. Fintechee allows brokers to:

• Define point values for each instrument

• Configure variable spreads to match market conditions

• Adjust pricing logic dynamically for indices, forex, commodities, or equities

This flexibility ensures that the platform can support a wide range of financial instruments while maintaining consistent risk management.

Order Execution and Risk Management Logic

Accurate order execution and risk control are critical for both CFDs and spread betting. Fintechee supports:

• Real-time execution across multiple instruments

• Dynamic margin calculations based on stake per point

• Automated stop-loss and take-profit handling

• Risk exposure monitoring at both client and broker levels

By reusing its CFD risk logic, Fintechee minimizes discrepancies and ensures predictable performance for both traders and brokers.

Account Structure Differences

Spread betting accounts differ slightly from CFD accounts due to their point-based calculation and regulatory considerations in specific regions. Fintechee supports:

• Separate account types for spread betting and CFD products

• Unified client management with consistent authentication and reporting

• Flexible portfolio views to accommodate point-based PnL alongside lot-based CFDs

This allows brokers to offer multiple products under a single platform while maintaining clarity and compliance.

Fintechee’s Modular Design for Rapid Adaptation

One of Fintechee’s core advantages is its modular backend architecture. Modules for pricing, risk management, execution, and account handling can be extended or reconfigured without rebuilding the entire system. This enables brokers to:

• Launch spread betting products quickly using existing CFD infrastructure

• Customize settings for different markets and instruments

• Scale efficiently as client volume grows

• Maintain a unified platform for multiple leveraged products

Fintechee’s modular approach ensures brokers can expand into financial spread betting with minimal development cost and maximum operational efficiency.
