Plus500 has announced a strategic partnership with Wealthsimple to supply trading infrastructure for US futures contracts across the Canadian online brokerage’s user base of more than 4 million investors.Under the agreement announced today (Wednesday), the London-listed fintech group will provide its full suite of proprietary order routing, risk management and clearing capabilities directly to the Canadian platform. The integration gives Wealthsimple's retail clients their first direct access to US futures markets through Plus500’s regulated trading platform, marking a notable milestone for Canada's self-directed investing sector.The B2B Engine Behind US ExpansionFor Plus500, the deal represents another significant step in its ongoing diversification into an institutional infrastructure provider. Over recent years, the company has methodically positioned itself as a technology backbone, leveraging its CFTC-regulated clearing status to gain a firm foothold in the lucrative US financial ecosystem.The partnership with Wealthsimple builds on a rapidly expanding network of B2B alliances across futures, prop trading and prediction markets. Plus500 serves as the brokerage execution and clearing partner for FanDuel Prediction Markets, a joint venture platform operated alongside CME Group. It also facilitates retail access to Kalshi’s CFTC-regulated event contracts through its clearing membership in Kalshi Klear, while supplying clearing infrastructure to the brokerage operations of retail prop trading giant Topstep.Non-OTC Diversification Delivers Financial ResultsPlus500 laid the groundwork for its non-OTC expansion in 2021 with the launch of its stock-dealing platform, Plus500 Invest, followed by the strategic acquisition of US futures broker Cunningham Commodities, which granted the group direct clearing membership and operational access to US derivatives exchanges.That infrastructure is now generating meaningful top-line revenue for the company. In 2025, Plus500’s non-OTC revenue crossed US$100 million, accounting for approximately 14% of total group revenue. In its financial update for the first half of 2026, the company reported strong progress across its B2B futures and prediction markets ecosystems, signaling that a healthy pipeline of additional institutional partner deals is currently in development.
