# Brokers

> For brokers and any firm with a venue of its own: your accounts live on your venue, under your clearing — bring your traders to trdrs without handing us a credential.

**You already run a venue. Connect it.**

A broker's accounts already exist. trdrs never holds them, never clears them, and never sees a
password. What we give your traders is the front end: charts, an order ticket, exits, risk, and
an account view over the account you already issued them.

This is one of the two ways a firm gets a trader trading. The other is having us issue the account
on the trdrs venue, and [Two ways in](/guides/account-paths) sets them side by side.

## What you can do today

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Register an account" icon="link" href="/guides/register-an-account">
    Tell us an account exists and who should see it. The trader signs in, finds it waiting, and
    enters their own venue credential.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Follow registrations" icon="bell" href="/guides/handle-registration-events">
    Webhooks when a registration links or is revoked, and a list route as your audit view.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Bring your data" icon="chart-line" href="/guides/venue-data">
    Your traders' market data flows under the entitlements you already issue — nothing to upload.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Publish a datafeed" icon="upload" href="/guides/publish-a-datafeed">
    For data from a venue we do not speak: publish a feed, and your traders alone see its symbols.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

Registration, listing, and revocation are the whole broker surface today, and they are enough to
run programmatic onboarding end to end.

## On the roadmap

None of the following is callable. It is listed so you can tell us which of it you need, and so
you never have to guess whether we are building it.

| Planned                 | What it would let you do                                            |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Venue profiles          | Describe your venue to trdrs once, instead of per account.          |
| Bridge references       | Point trdrs at your existing bridge rather than a per-trader login. |
| Spreads and commissions | Carry your markup and fee schedule through to what the trader sees. |
| Entitlement rules       | Decide per account what data and instruments a trader reaches.      |
| Account linking         | Group accounts under one trader or one book.                        |

Every one of these ships the way everything else does: it appears in
[API Reference](/api-reference/connect/create-an-account-registration) and in the
[changelog](/partner-platform/changelog) on the day it becomes callable, never before.

<Note>
  Building a prop firm rather than a brokerage? The accounts come from us instead of from you —
  see [Prop firms](/guides/prop-firms-overview).
