Real arbitrage. Net of landed cost. Routed to the right counterparty.
ArbiTrade surfaces pre-validated cross-border opportunities on physical commodities — copper scrap, aluminium scrap, battery black mass, steel — net of freight, duties, inspection, and FX. We coordinate structured RFQs to a curated network of suppliers, buyers, brokers, and finance partners. ArbiTrade is not a broker, dealer, marketplace operator, financial intermediary, or counterparty to transactions — it is intelligence and coordination only.

Spreads that hold after landed cost
Every signal is computed net of freight, tariffs, inspection, and FX. No theoretical 12% spread that disappears once you ship a container.
Curated counterparty routing
We do not list everyone. Each supplier, buyer, broker, and finance partner is verified and sanctions-checked before they receive an RFQ from you.
Structured RFQs, no execution risk
Click a signal, send a structured RFQ to vetted recipients in seconds. ArbiTrade never takes title, never holds funds, never guarantees delivery. The deal stays yours.

How the platform works
From signal discovery to deal execution — all in one coordinated workflow.
AI-identified corridors
State-of-the-art AI continuously scans global commodity markets, identifying cross-border price dislocations across metals, scrap, battery materials, and more. Every corridor is priced net of freight, duties, FX, and inspection — the spread you see is real margin, not theoretical.
Confidence-scored and verified
Each opportunity is scored for confidence based on data freshness, corridor volatility, and counterparty availability. Risk flags are applied automatically. Only corridors that clear the full cost stack and pass verification surface to your dashboard.
Route and close
One click builds a structured RFQ — commodity, volume, route, terms, recipients. Send to your curated counterparty network directly from the platform. Track responses, advance to deal stage, and log closes. ArbiTrade coordinates — you transact.

Frequently asked questions
Where does ArbiTrade get its price data?
ArbiTrade sources price data from multiple channels: benchmark futures from public exchanges (CME, COMEX, ICE); curated broker quotes from Telegram channels; and real-time RFQ responses from platform users. Every quote is labeled with its source and timestamp, and refined with our per-corridor basis tables, freight model, and FX feeds so spreads reflect the full landed-cost stack.
What's the lead fee model — how do I get paid for sending business through ArbiTrade?
Brokers and other counterparties earn a lead fee when an opportunity sourced through ArbiTrade results in a closed deal. The standard rate is 1% of the cargo value, though this is negotiable on a case-by-case basis. If an introduction does not result in a transaction, no fee is due. ArbiTrade itself does not take execution risk or custody of funds.
How current is the pricing? Can I trade off these numbers?
Prices are benchmark-referenced from public exchanges and refined with our basis tables, freight model, and FX feeds, so dashboard spreads reflect the full landed-cost stack. Physical commodity arbitrage clears over days, not seconds — the signals are built for that workflow. Counterparties must always independently verify pricing before transacting; see the User Agreement § Pricing Accuracy.
Who else is on the platform?
The platform features a curated network of buyers, suppliers, brokers, and trade finance partners — each verified individually and screened against published sanctions lists. Counterparty visibility is tiered by subscription level: Verified tier and above see all active participants and execution-grade counterparty detail; Free and Pro tiers see a curated subset. No counterparty is added without explicit consent and sanctions verification.
