Independent Software Vendors (ISV)

In addition to the Trader GUI, Eurex Exchange participants may also use Third Party Software from Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) to access trading (ETI, FIX-LF), clearing (FIXML, AMQP, FpML, Margin Calculator) and market and reference data interfaces.  

If it is intended to employ such a Third Party Software, the respective ISV must be registered at Eurex Deutschland and/ or Eurex Clearing.  

How to register?   

To become a registered ISV, please download the ISV registration form, complete it, and email it to onboarding-team@deutsche-boerse.com. Once the signed form is received, the set-up process will be initiated.

  • The registration form will be further used to request the setup of an Implementation Officer within the Member Portal where technical requests and user maintenance are present together with further useful information.
  • Details regarding successful setup are confirmed via email. 

Registered ISVs will be supplied with all the relevant information on their connectivity options and technical documentation.
