How to Become a Sub-Broker Partner in Tradetron
To become a sub-broker partner in Tradetron, you book a demo, set up Tradetron's white label algo platform with your own brand and pricing, and launch it to your clients. Tradetron provides the technology: strategy builder, backtesting and broker connections. You bring the clients and the service, and keep your existing broker arrangement for regulated broking.
What is a sub-broker today?
A sub-broker was an intermediary who brought clients to a stock broker and served them locally, earning a share of the brokerage. SEBI has since merged the sub-broker category into Authorised Persons (APs). An AP works under a SEBI-registered stock broker, which applies to the exchanges on the AP's behalf.
The job is the same as it always was: find clients, understand what they need, and give them better service than a faceless app. What has changed is what clients expect. Many now want automated, rule-based trading, not just a phone call and an order.
Why algo tools help sub-brokers
Serve more clients with the same team
A strategy runs the same way for one client or a hundred. Your team spends its time on clients and research instead of placing the same order again and again.
Consistent execution
Rules are followed exactly: entries, exits and stop-losses fire when their conditions are met, not when someone has time to look. That removes a common source of client complaints: "you were supposed to exit at that level".
Decisions you can explain
A rule-based strategy can be backtested on historical data, so you can show a client how the rules behaved in the past, including the bad periods, before they commit money.
A differentiated offer
Discount brokers compete on price. A branded platform with ready strategies, testing tools and your own support is a reason for clients to stay with you.
- 1 strategy can run for many client accounts
- 0 lines of code needed to build a strategy
- 24 × 7 monitoring for markets that never close, such as crypto

What you need before you start
| You need | Why |
|---|---|
| A client base, or a plan to build one | The platform gives you tools; clients still come from you |
| Your broker arrangement in place | Regulated broking stays with a SEBI-registered broker |
| A clear offer and pricing | Clients should know what they get and what it costs |
| Strategies you have tested | Never offer a strategy you haven't backtested and run in test mode |
| Someone to handle support | Clients will have questions, especially in the first weeks |
You don't need a technology team. Tradetron runs the platform; your job is the business around it.

Frequently asked questions
What is a sub-broker?
A sub-broker was an intermediary who brought clients to a stock broker and served them under the broker's registration. SEBI has merged this category into Authorised Persons (APs), who work through a SEBI-registered stock broker.
Is Tradetron a stock broker?
No. Tradetron is an algo trading technology platform. Clients connect their own accounts with supported brokers, and orders go through those brokers. As a Tradetron partner, you offer the technology under your brand; broking stays with the broker.
What is a white label platform?
It is a ready-made platform built by one company that another business runs under its own brand. With Tradetron's white label, your clients see your name, logo and pricing while Tradetron provides the technology.
Do I need technical knowledge to become a Tradetron partner?
No. The strategy builder is no-code, and the Tradetron team helps with setup and training. You do need to understand the strategies you offer and be able to support your clients.
Can I set my own pricing for clients?
Yes. The white label platform lets you set your own pricing structure and collect payments, so you decide what your clients pay for your service.
