Changes To Our Fee Structure

We are pleased to announce a significant development to our fee structure. These will take effect for all new contracts listed from the "opening bell" on Thursday 7th September 2006*.


The objective of the changes to our fee structure, as with all our developments, is to maximise market liquidity. These changes are designed to give all our members the best profit opportunity from our dynamic marketplace.

Details of the changes are...

No Fees Pre-Event: No trading or expiry fees on sports events if you trade them before they become "in-running".
No Expiry Fee Unless "In the Money": A position that expires "out of the money" used to incur a 4c fee per lot. "Out of the money" expiries will now incur no expiry fee. An in the money expiry will now incur a fee of 10c per lot.
Trading Fees: Trading fees are being increased to 5c per lot. Trading Fees at price extremes will be 3c per lot. Price extremes are 0 to 5 and 95 to 100.

*Contracts open prior to 7th September that have not expired by 31st December 2006 will change to the new fee structure from 1st January 2007.

TradeSports, the leading person to person retail trading exchange, continues to grow and innovate in the lead-up to this November's US elections.

TradeSports offers person to person trading services to thousands of registered members from all over the Globe who trade their opinions on hundreds of events such as the US November mid-term elections, the capture of Bin Laden, the Dow Jones at year end, and many sporting events.

We also provide prediction market data which is becoming the reporting standard on political and other future uncertainties to the world’s media, academia, investment businesses, state and political organizations.

We will be launching a new “Express” trading interface in the coming weeks to further improve our service and to cement our position as the leading retail person to person trading exchange.

Recent and historical legal directives in the US and other countries have been aimed at organizations in the business of bookmaking, an activity in which TradeSports is not involved.

TradeSports is not a sportsbook or a bookmaker, and as an Irish Company, operating legally from Ireland, we will continue to provide our services to current and new registered members.

Thanks to all our thousands of current and many new members, and those interested in our prediction market data for making TradeSports a phenomenon.
