Since I keep receiving questions about “why you are not a partner with XYZ”, I decided to create this page to answer once and for all.
I’m no more an Interactive Brokers partner
I’ve been happily referring IBKR to my audience between 2016 and August 6th, 2025.
The end of our commercial relationship is due to having had a bad experience with the current (August 2025) IBKR “relationship manager”.
I decided to terminate our partnership agreement but I still think IB is a great broker (and I still am a happy user since 2015).
I’m no more a Trade Republic partner
You’re probably here because you followed the link mr.rip/TR mentioned in one of my 12 videos sponsored by them.
I’ve been affiliate with Trade Republic during the calendar year 2024.
The end of our commercial relationship is due to having had bad experiences with their country manager and their team.
We had a written (by email) agreement by mid December to renew the collaboration for the year 2025 but they didn’t send me the contract.
At 5pm, December 31st 2024, I received a call from them telling me that they weren’t going to renew the contract without any documented explanation.
Please don’t ask me what I think about their products, I won’t answer.
If you’re wondering why I still keep the videos up and the links in description, here is the answer: I must keep the videos up and I can’t touch the descriptions for 12 months after the end of our commercial relationship by contract.
I will remove the links (and everything else TR related) on January 1st 2026.
