MT5 White Label Cost: What Determines the Total Scope

Compare total operating cost with the same scope

Prepare a cost worksheet with separate rows for platform arrangement, hosting, market data, execution connectivity, CRM work and operational support. For each row, record the initial charge, recurring charge, billing currency, usage basis and responsible supplier. A lower platform figure can be offset by services charged elsewhere.

Use the same planning horizon for each proposal. A practical worksheet is: initial implementation plus the sum of agreed recurring charges across that period, plus separately identified usage charges and required third-party services. Leave amounts blank until suppliers confirm them; a universal MT5 price would conceal meaningful scope differences.

Identify the events that change the budget

Record what happens when the broker adds instruments, a new price source, a CRM workflow or an execution endpoint. Ask whether configuration work, support hours or infrastructure changes are included. Note cancellation, renewal and migration terms in the supplier comparison.

Use the pricing-request guide to send TGS a concrete requirement list. Cost planning explains the components of a budget; a pricing request establishes the specific configuration and commercial proposal for your project.

Step 1 — Define the launch model

Clarify target markets, instruments, user volumes and the operational model before requesting pricing.

Step 2 — Separate setup and recurring costs

Ask providers to distinguish implementation work from monthly platform, hosting, data and support charges.

Step 3 — Identify third-party dependencies

Document market-data, liquidity, CRM, payment and compliance systems that sit outside the core white label.

Step 4 — Compare total operating scope

Compare proposals on included infrastructure and responsibilities, not only the headline monthly fee.
