Platform Fees
by Stropro on 16 Mar 2023
The Platform Administration Fee will be calculated based on a percentage of your account balance as shown in the table below.
Our fees are accrued daily and charged quarterly. The fees are intentionally progressive and tiered, the fees reduce as clients increase their investments on the Stropro platform.
You are not charged a Platform Administration Fee for any cash or cash like products held with Stropro.
^ For example a balance of $1,000,000 would be charged at 0.60% for the first $250,000 and 0.50% for the next $250,000 and 0.40% for the next $500,000.
Please note, if you withdraw your entire balance before the end of the month or year, you will only be charged a fee for the days your money was held at Stropro.
We do not have fees for accounts with a $0 balance, so you can still keep your account open without accruing a platform fee.
