Pie Partners with eToro
We’re proud to announce that we have signed a partnership deal with eToro, one of the world’s largest online trading platforms.
This new partnership means that Pie will now be able to provide tax services to all of eToro’s more than 1.6 million UK customers. It brings together two innovative, forward-leaning companies who together will be able to provide customers with a full range of financial services with just a few taps of their smartphone screen.
The partnership became possible due in part to a recent upgrade of the Pie app that now allows users to claim stocks and crypto as sources of income. The head of eToro’s tax compliance division was enthusiastic in his praise for Pie, stating the app was very impressive – a sentiment further strengthened by the app’s astonishingly quick success with the public, reaching over 12,000 downloads in only three months. Overall, the new partnership represents a positive step forward for both companies, and even more important, their customers.
This is also just the first step in Pie’s ever evolving offering, with more income types to come.

CopyTrader™
The eToro CopyTrader™ system takes social investing to new heights by enabling clients to follow the investment activity of other clients and, critically, to replicate those activities in real-time. This eliminates the kind of trepidation and uncertainty less experienced investors and traders tend to experience, and which often prevents them from making timely transactions that might benefit them.
Like the rest of the eToro platform the CopyTrader™ system is completely transparent, displaying relevant data for each client including crucial investing information such as gain percentage, risk score and the composition of the client’s portfolio.
eToro also provide their Popular Investor programme, a unique feature that enables the platform’s most successful investors to bolster their personal prospects by being paid for being copied. It’s a win-win for everyone involved.
eToro Smart Portfolios
eToro also offer their clients an innovative long-term investment vehicle they call Smart Portfolios. Smart Portfolios are created by thorough analysis of results from the top investors on the platform, or from tracking the performance of various financial assets using a predetermined market strategy. These are ready-made investment portfolios for those who prefer to cut to the chase.
The eToro Money App
eToro recently rolled out the eToro Money App. The Money App comprises a cash account and debit card that can be used to make and receive bank transfers. With the eToro Money App, you can make instant withdrawals or shop from anywhere in the world.
The eToro money app also contains the eToro Crypto Wallet, a leading-edge financial management feature that recognises a variety of crypto assets for trading purposes. The eToro Crypto Wallet offers iron-clad security for your digital financial assets and is an expression of the company's belief in a tokenised future.
The Start of Something Big
The partnership between Pie and eToro is an exciting development for investors and self-employed people everywhere, and helps to explain the widespread adoption of the Pie app by smartphone users who are downloading it in droves. But this is just the beginning. In the near future, Pie is expected to integrate Capital Gains income into the app and many more features are on the drawing board as you read this.
