SMARTRADE has been at the forefront of empowering Filipinos to thrive in today’s complex and evolving financial landscape.

Since its founding in 2017, SmarTrade has become a trusted guide for Filipinos who are navigating the world of online trading. With a strong collaboration with ATFX — a globally recognized and award-winning online trading broker — SmarTrade has scaled its reach and deepened the impact of its education initiatives.
With ATFX’s sponsored learning sessions, SmarTrade provides access to world-class market insights, platforms, and tools — bridging the gap between learning and real-world application.
Through free learning programs such as one-on-one coaching, live webinars, and in-person seminars, these initiatives help break down barriers that often keep ordinary Filipinos from accessing life-changing financial opportunities.
To deepen its commitment to quality learning, SmarTrade conducts free, exclusive seminars each month—not only in Metro Manila but across regional hubs throughout the Philippines. These sessions, tailored for intermediate to advanced traders, cover advanced topics such as technical and fundamental analysis, chart patterns, demo trading, and more. By taking these high-value events nationwide, SmarTrade ensures that learners from Luzon to Mindanao benefit from practical, experience-led education.
Meanwhile, for those just starting their trading journey, SmarTrade offers 100 percent free beginner-friendly seminars, held at its Makati City office. These interactive sessions cover essential topics such as basic money management, the fundamentals of online trading, and how to navigate trading platforms.
With a supportive learning environment and expert-led discussions, these programs are designed to help newcomers build confidence and foundational knowledge for responsible and informed trading.
In a time when misinformation about online trading continues to cloud public perception, SmarTrade is taking bold steps to lead with transparency and facts. Its new podcast segments and short-form video content — particularly in the form of reels on major social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok — offer digestible insights into both the local and global economic scene.
These bite-sized educational tools aim to bust myths, clarify misconceptions, and empower viewers to form intelligent, grounded opinions about online trading and the financial markets.
“Our goal has always been to make financial education accessible to every Filipino, regardless of their background or financial status. We believe that by equipping them with the right knowledge and tools, we empower them to take control of their financial future,” said Joyce Mayo, president and CEO of SmarTrade. “We are proud of the progress we’ve made in the past seven years, but we know there’s still more work to do, especially in promoting honest, practical, and inclusive financial learning.”
Beyond digital platforms, SmarTrade also strengthens its advocacy through partnerships with academic institutions to reach young Filipinos that are entering the workforce. Through its Financial Wellness Talks and Career Expo initiatives, the company has partnered with respected schools such as Cavite State University, the University of St. La Salle in Bacolod, Partido State University in Camarines Sur, the University of Santo Tomas, and National Teachers College in Manila. These collaborations help equip students and recent graduates with essential real-world financial skills that complement their academic training.
