What X Open Hub does

X Open Hub is the institutional B2B division of XTB S.A. (Warsaw Stock Exchange: XTB), providing multi-asset liquidity and trading infrastructure to banks, brokers, and fintechs across 30+ countries. Founded in 2010 and headquartered in Warsaw with technology operations in London, the company has scaled to serve over 100 institutional clients with access to deep aggregated liquidity on more than 5,000 instruments spanning forex, cryptocurrencies, indices, commodities, shares, and ETFs.

The company's core technology is a fully proprietary stack rather than licensed third-party infrastructure. It centers on the xStation trading terminal (web and mobile), the xAPI protocol (version 2.5.0, FIX-compatible, with JSON over socket and WebSocket interfaces), the Smart B-Book Executor for automated trade-flow control, and the xRisk, xManager, wlManager, and xAdmin modules for risk management and back-office operations. Connectivity is delivered via FIX protocol, xAPI, and MT4/MT5 bridges integrated with the dominant retail platform ecosystem (PrimeXM, oneZero, Gold-i, Tools for Brokers, Match-Trade). The platform is co-located in leading global data centers for low-latency institutional execution.

Revenue is generated through three principal streams: (1) spread-based institutional liquidity services on 5,000+ instruments, (2) white-label technology licensing for MT4/MT5 and xStation deployments, and (3) Brokerage-as-a-Service offerings that bundle platform, liquidity, and operational support for banks and fintechs. Pricing is quote-based and contract-driven with multi-year terms, and the entire business is B2B with no retail channel conflict. Distribution runs through direct enterprise sales supplemented by a reseller program and integration partnerships. In June 2026 the division was rebranded from X Open Hub to XTB Institutional as part of a broader consolidation under the parent's listed brand; the change is stated to be cosmetic with no alteration to legal entities, regulatory arrangements, or client relationships.
