Client Voices
Zerodha Clone Client Reviews - Real Platforms, Real Results
Feedback from founders and brokerages who launched trading platforms with Miracuves. Client identities withheld under NDA.
“The admin console is genuinely what sold us. Twenty-eight sections meant our two-person operations team could run KYC review, broker health, risk limits and payment reconciliation from day one, without us stopping to build internal tooling before we could onboard a single real user.”
“Our compliance team went through the VAPT document line by line before they would approve the project. Having the OWASP mapping, the audit trail design and the credential handling written down up front turned what is normally a three-month review into something much shorter.”
“We run five strategies across three broker accounts. Being able to deploy the same strategy code against different brokers without rewriting connectors changed how we operate - we now switch brokers on commercial terms rather than on whichever integration we happen to have working.”
“We evaluated building this in-house and the estimate came back at eighteen months before we would have had anything a customer could log into. Miracuves had us live in weeks with all eight brokers connected. The broker abstraction layer alone would have taken our team the better part of a year, and we would have got it wrong the first time.”

03The product
The Basics
What Is a Zerodha Clone App?
A Zerodha Clone is a ready-made, white-label trading platform that recreates the core experience of India’s leading discount broker – order placement, live market data, portfolio tracking, watchlists and charting – while adding capabilities that most single-broker applications never offer. It is a working product foundation rather than a template or a UI kit.
Web, Mobile & Programmatic
Responsive web platform, branded Android app and a 7-language SDK - one backend serving every surface.
Every Indian Market Segment
Equity, futures, options, commodities, currency, ETFs, IPOs, mutual funds and bonds under one login.
Broker-Agnostic by Design
Adding a broker means writing one adapter - orders, trades and positions never change.
Built for Web, Android & API
What Is It?
The architectural difference is what matters commercially. Rather than binding your platform to one brokerage, it sits above eight broker APIs behind a unified abstraction layer. Your users connect the accounts they already hold and see one portfolio, one order book and one profit-and-loss statement across all of them. Adding a broker later means writing a single adapter, not reworking your order engine.
- 018 broker integrations, one order layer
- 025 algo strategies with paper trading
- 03Real-time data from 5 aggregated sources
- 0428+ admin sections, no custom tooling
- 05Cloud, on-premise or hybrid deployment
Everything a modern trading operation needs is included as part of the same system – algorithmic execution with five pre-built strategies, real-time WebSocket data aggregated from five sources, social and copy trading, dual payment gateways, comprehensive reporting, and a twenty-eight section admin console. Because it shares one data model rather than stitching separate tools together, orders, positions, payments and reports reconcile against each other by construction.

05Who it is for
Know Your Buyer
Who Is Our Zerodha Clone App Built For?
The platform is designed for operators who want trading infrastructure without building it – from fintech founders launching their first product to established brokerages modernizing their stack.
You run systematic strategies and need execution that does not break when you change brokers. The broker abstraction layer means strategy code stays untouched when you add or switch a connection, while audit trails, square-off history and risk limits give you the operational controls a desk needs to stay disciplined.
You manage capital across several broker accounts and reconcile positions by hand. A consolidated portfolio view with per-client segmentation, exportable reporting and role-based access removes the daily spreadsheet work and gives you a single defensible record for client reviews and compliance requests.
You write strategies in Python, Go or JavaScript and want to deploy them without maintaining broker connectors yourself. Scoped API keys, rate limits, outbound webhooks and seven client libraries give you programmatic access, while paper trading lets you validate behaviour before committing real capital.
You are building a product for someone else and trading is one component of it. Full source-code ownership, white-label theming and a documented API surface let you embed the platform beneath your own brand, integrate it with existing systems, and support clients without depending on a vendor roadmap.
You want to enter the trading market with a credible product rather than a prototype. Instead of spending twelve to eighteen months building broker connectivity, order management and market data from zero, you start from a launch-ready foundation and spend your time on positioning, acquisition and the features that actually differentiate you.
Your back office works but your client-facing experience is dated, and rebuilding it internally means diverting engineers away from operations. A white-label front end lets you offer a modern trading interface under your own brand while your existing brokerage relationships, compliance processes and settlement flows stay exactly where they are.
If your business depends on market access, execution quality, client trust and recurring revenue, a trading platform is infrastructure – not a feature.
Talk to Our TeamWhere It Fits
Zerodha Clone Use Cases - Neo-Broking, Prop Desks & Wealth Platforms
Launch a low-cost broking product with your own brokerage structure, targeting retail traders who want a modern interface and access to every market segment from a single login. You control pricing, positioning and the customer relationship rather than renting it from an incumbent platform.
Serve the traders who already hold two or three broker accounts and reconcile their portfolios by hand. One order book, one consolidated profit-and-loss statement and one watchlist across every connection – this is the gap no mainstream Indian platform currently fills.
Package the algo engine and SDK ecosystem as a standalone product for quantitative traders. Monetize through strategy slots, API rate tiers and paper-trading access, targeting users who currently maintain their own broker connectors and would rather not.
Equip advisors managing multiple client accounts with bulk order placement, per-client portfolio segmentation and consolidated compliance-ready reporting. The operational time saved on daily reconciliation is usually the argument that closes this segment.
Build a community-first trading product around the leaderboard, activity feed and copy-trading engine. Social features drive retention and referral in a category where acquisition costs are high and switching is otherwise easy.
Deploy under a partner brokerage’s brand with their broker set, their fee structure and their compliance requirements. White-label licensing turns the platform into infrastructure that others build businesses on, at materially higher contract values.
The same engine also supports adjacent models – trading education platforms that need a working product alongside their content, research and advisory businesses distributing calls through a real interface, and broker-agnostic portfolio tools for users who want visibility without changing brokers.
Trading is no longer a niche activity for Indian consumers. It has become mainstream financial behaviour, and in that market the platform that owns the interface owns the relationship, the data and the pricing power.

The Zerodha Clone suits any operator entering or expanding within the trading, investment and financial technology ecosystem. Stock trading startups launch branded platforms for retail participants. Fintech companies bolt a trading layer onto an existing product. Broker-dealers modernize client-facing systems without touching the back office. Algo trading businesses package strategy tooling for quantitative users. Trading educators wrap a working product around their content. WealthTech platforms add portfolio analytics and investment workflows. Proprietary desks run internal trading operations with proper oversight. White-label agencies deploy branded fintech products for their own clients.
Miracuves’ Zerodha Clone is built as a high-performance, broker-agnostic trading platform that adapts to the market you are actually operating in – Indian capital markets by default, with international exchange integrations available as a customization. Whether you are launching a discount broking product, extending an existing fintech offering, or deploying under a partner’s brand, the same foundation supports it. What changes is the configuration, the branding and the commercial model, not the underlying engineering.
06Under the hood
End to End
How the Zerodha Clone Works - Onboarding, Broker Link, Order Flow & Settlement
A trading platform feels simple on the surface but runs on a structured pipeline underneath. Here is the path from signup to settled trade.
User Journey - From Signup to First Trade
1Register & Verify IdentityNew users create an account and complete regulatory KYC before any trading permission is granted.
- Email or mobile sign-up with verification token
- TOTP two-factor enrolment via any authenticator app
- PAN, Aadhaar, bank and address verified as separate gates
- 2Connect a Broker Account
The trader links any of the eight supported brokers and the platform validates the connection immediately.
- OAuth where the broker supports it, API key where it does not
- Credentials encrypted at rest and never written to logs
- Capability flags record which features that broker allows
- 3Synchronize the Portfolio
Holdings, positions, margin and fund balances are pulled from every connected broker into one unified model.
- Consolidated holdings and open positions in a single view
- Margin state and available funds aggregated per broker
- Corporate actions applied automatically to delivery holdings
- 4Place an Order
Before anything reaches the exchange, the order passes pre-trade risk and margin validation.
- Market, limit, SL, SL-M plus bracket, cover, AMO and GTT
- Risk limits and available margin checked before submission
- Live status streamed over WebSocket as the order fills
- 5Execution & Position Update
Each fill writes an immutable trade record with the complete charge breakdown.
- Brokerage, STT, transaction charges and GST itemized per trade
- Positions revalue tick by tick through the session
- Partial fills tracked with pending quantity maintained
- 6Settle, Report & Reconcile
T+1 settlement flows into holdings and every record becomes export-ready for tax and audit.
- T+1 quantities tracked into demat holdings
- P&L, capital gains and turnover reports on demand
- PDF, Excel and CSV export for filing and reconciliation
How It’s Built
Zerodha Clone Platform Architecture & Backend Flow
- Layer 01
Broker Abstraction Layer
Every broker implements one adapter interface. Orders, trades and positions never change when a broker is added or swapped.
- Layer 02
Order Management Pipeline
Validation → risk check → margin verification → broker submission → fill reconciliation, each stage independently observable.
- Layer 03
Real-Time Data Fan-Out
Five sources aggregate into Redis, then fan out over Socket.io to subscribed clients with automatic source failover.
- Layer 04
Async Job Processing
BullMQ queues separate order execution, market data, notifications, reporting and audit sync by priority.
- Layer 05
Dual-Gateway Payments
A unified payment record abstracts Razorpay and Stripe, so the margin engine never depends on a processor.
- Layer 06
Immutable Audit Layer
Fund transactions, trade records and audit logs are append-only, giving forensic-grade traceability for regulators.
Under the Hood
Zerodha Clone Tech Stack - Next.js, NestJS, PostgreSQL & WebSocket Infrastructure
Under the hood, a Zerodha-style trading platform needs low-latency market data, transactional integrity and horizontally scalable APIs. Miracuves uses a modern, deployment-ready technology stack built for order execution, real-time feeds and operator control.
Mobile & Web Experience
Next.js 16 (Web) · Android (Mobile)- App Router with React 18 server components
- SEO-indexable instrument and marketing pages
- Branded Android app with push and biometrics
API & Business Logic
NestJS (TypeScript)- 60+ modules across orders, positions and risk
- Typed DTO validation on every endpoint
- Swagger-documented REST for SDK generation
User, Order & Transaction Data
PostgreSQL 16 / Prisma- ACID-compliant order, trade and ledger records
- Versioned migrations across environments
- Indexed for fast portfolio and report queries
Real-Time Market Data
Socket.io · Redis Pub/Sub- Live quotes, depth and order status streaming
- Redis fan-out for horizontal WebSocket scale
- Auto-reconnect with delta sync on drop
Async Processing & Queues
BullMQ · Redis- Order execution kept off the blocking path
- Notifications, reports and audit sync queued
- Exponential backoff with dead-letter handling
Infrastructure & Delivery
Docker · Turborepo · CDN- Cloud, on-premise or hybrid deployment
- Health and readiness probes for orchestration
- CDN assets, TLS enforced, five-layer rate limits
the stack is deliberately mainstream – Next.js, NestJS, PostgreSQL and Redis. Your internal team can extend modules, add broker adapters, integrate third-party tools and move between clouds without depending on a proprietary framework or niche skill set.
Performance Targets
Built to Scale - Low-Latency Execution, WebSocket Fan-Out & High Order Volume
Trading platforms fail in public. When markets gap at the open, or a result announcement sends volume through a single scrip, the platform is judged on the worst thirty seconds of the day rather than the average. The architecture below is designed for that peak, not for a quiet Tuesday afternoon.
Sub-500ms Order Placement
Target latency from click to broker acknowledgement stays under 500ms, with API reads under 100ms and writes under 300ms at the 95th percentile.
10,000 Concurrent WebSockets
Per-instance connection capacity, scaled horizontally through the Redis adapter, with automatic reconnect and delta sync so dropped clients never see stale prices.
Market Data Under 200ms
Target end-to-end delivery from exchange feed to user dashboard, with automatic failover to a secondary source inside five seconds if the primary degrades.
Stateless Horizontal Scale
API servers and queue workers scale independently - more order-execution workers through the session, more reporting workers overnight, capacity following the market.
Partitioned High-Volume Tables
Orders, trades, OHLCV candles and audit logs are designed for time-based partitioning from day one, because retrofitting it onto a live trading database is not comfortable.
99.5% Uptime Target
Graceful degradation when a single broker API fails, health and readiness probes for orchestration, and queued retry with backoff rather than dropped orders.
Order placement targets sub-500ms latency from click to broker acknowledgement, with API reads under 100ms and writes under 300ms at the 95th percentile. The order path is deliberately kept free of non-essential work – market data enrichment, notification dispatch and reporting all move to background queues so nothing blocks an execution.
WebSocket capacity runs to 10,000 concurrent connections per instance, scaled horizontally through the Redis adapter so multiple server processes share room state. Clients reconnect automatically with exponential backoff and perform a delta sync on reconnect, so a dropped connection during volatile trading does not leave a trader looking at stale prices.
Market data targets sub-200ms end-to-end delivery from exchange feed to user dashboard. Five sources are aggregated behind one interface, and if the primary degrades the platform fails over to a secondary within five seconds – a trader should never be the person who discovers your data provider is down.
API servers and queue workers are stateless, so they scale independently of each other. You run more order-execution workers through the trading session and fewer overnight, while reporting and audit-sync workers run on the opposite schedule. Capacity follows the market rather than sitting idle at a fixed size.
The high-volume tables – orders, trades, OHLCV candles and audit logs – are designed for time-based partitioning from the outset. A single instrument on one-minute candles generates roughly 375 rows per trading day; across a few thousand instruments that compounds quickly, and retrofitting partitioning onto a live trading database is not a comfortable exercise.
Note for founders and CTOs: you can start on a single node and scale out later without re-architecting. Nothing in the design assumes a fixed topology, a single region, or a particular cloud – the same codebase runs on one container or across an autoscaling cluster.
07Security and compliance
Built to Be Audited
Zerodha Clone Security - OWASP-Mapped, VAPT-Ready & SEBI-Aligned
When you run a trading platform you are handling client funds, KYC documents and order flow. Security is designed in from the data model up – and documented well enough to survive enterprise procurement.
- 01 · OWASP
OWASP Top 10 (2021) Mapped
Every category from broken access control to SSRF mapped to an implemented control with evidence.
- 02 · VAPT
VAPT-Ready Documentation
A complete security posture document for buyer due diligence, with annual third-party penetration testing.
- 03 · Encryption
Encrypted Data & Secure Config
AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.2+ in transit, bcrypt password hashing and no card data stored locally.
- 04 · Auth
Multi-Layer Authentication
15-minute JWT tokens, refresh rotation, TOTP 2FA, OAuth, progressive lockout and login anomaly detection.
- 05 · RBAC
Role-Based Access Control
Four-tier model - USER, BROKER_ADMIN, ADMIN, SUPERADMIN - enforced server-side by named route guards.
- 06 · Audit
Immutable Audit Trail
Append-only logs of every admin action, KYC transition and broker connection, with configurable retention.
Throttling is enforced at five independent layers - global middleware, stricter limits on authentication routes, separate admin thresholds, per-API-key quotas, and infrastructure-level IP limits upstream of the application. Login anomaly detection tracks failed attempt patterns, unusual geolocations and device fingerprint changes, escalating lockout duration as repeated failures accumulate.
Every request passes through sanitization middleware before it reaches business logic, with context-aware encoding that varies by rendering target. All endpoints validate through typed DTOs with whitelist enforcement, so unexpected fields are rejected rather than silently accepted. Database access runs exclusively through parameterized ORM queries, removing string-concatenation injection paths entirely.
Users can request a full export of their account data, delivered asynchronously through a signed, time-limited download link. Deletion runs a staged workflow that validates no pending transactions or regulatory holds exist, then anonymizes personal identifiers while retaining financial audit records in anonymized form - satisfying erasure requests without breaking compliance retention.
Per-user broker API keys and secrets are the most sensitive data on the platform, because they authorize real trades on real accounts. They are encrypted at rest, excluded from application logs and error responses by design, and accessed only through a credential layer with audited reads. Key rotation is supported without downtime or user re-authentication.
Trading platforms operating in Indian markets carry record-keeping and audit obligations that are difficult to retrofit later. KYC submissions are tracked stage by stage with individual verification gates for PAN, Aadhaar, bank and address. Trade records, fund movements and admin actions are written append-only, so regulatory examination or dispute resolution works from a complete history rather than reconstructed data.
No card data, CVV or PIN is stored locally, which keeps your PCI-DSS scope materially smaller than a platform that handles card details directly. Razorpay and Stripe webhooks are verified server-side with HMAC-SHA256 signatures and timestamp tolerance checks, so replayed or forged payment callbacks are rejected before they touch the funds model or the margin engine.
Note for Serious Operators: from client funds and KYC documents to broker credentials and order flow, every sensitive surface is encrypted, access-controlled and audit-logged.
Talk to Us About Security & ComplianceRegulatory Clarification
Zerodha Clone Compliance - Software Scope, Licensing and Broker Partners
A Zerodha clone is software, not a broking licence. Miracuves builds and hands over the platform layer: the trading web platform and Android app, the unified order layer and broker adapters, real-time market data, portfolio and P&L, KYC workflows, risk and margin controls, audit trails and admin controls. Routing client orders to an exchange, holding client funds and securities, and settling trades are regulated activities. Those sit with a licensed entity, either a registration held by your own company or the registered brokers whose official APIs the platform connects to. We build to those brokers’ APIs. We do not replace them, and we do not act as one.
“Ready” means the architecture is built to the controls those frameworks require: payment credentials tokenized at the processor rather than stored as card numbers, encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access with segregated admin roles, immutable audit logging and environment separation. Your certification audit therefore starts from a compliant codebase instead of a rebuild. It is not a certificate. Miracuves holds no PCI-DSS or ISO 27001 certification on your behalf and displays no compliance badge without the certificate behind it. Certification is issued to the operating entity, against its own environment, processes and hosting.

The trading web platform and Android app, a unified order layer with adapters for eight brokers, real-time market data, portfolio and P&L, KYC workflows with separate PAN, Aadhaar, bank and address gates, risk and margin controls, append-only audit logs and role-based admin access. Delivered as source code you own.
What Only a Licence Delivers
Accepting client orders for execution on an exchange, holding client funds and securities, maintaining demat accounts, settling trades, and reporting to the regulator and the exchanges. That authority sits with a registered stock broker and depository participant, either your own registration or your broker partners’. Software cannot substitute for it.
Card Data and PCI-DSS Scope
Deposits and withdrawals run through Razorpay, Stripe and UPI rails, and the platform stores no card data, CVV or PIN locally. Cardholder data stays inside your processor’s certified environment, which keeps your own PCI-DSS assessment scope as narrow as your integration allows.
Jurisdiction Decides the Route
Requirements differ by market: SEBI stock-broker registration and depository-participant registration (with exchange and depository membership) in India, SEC broker-dealer registration and FINRA membership in the US, and FCA authorization in the UK. Confirm your route with your broker partners or securities counsel. Miracuves does not provide legal, licensing or regulatory advice.

How Operators Earn
Zerodha Clone Revenue Models - Brokerage, Subscriptions, API Tiers & Referrals
A trading platform earns in more ways than brokerage alone, and the operators who do well are usually the ones who build several revenue lines rather than depending on transaction volume. Every lever below is supported natively and configured from the admin console.
- 01
Per-Trade Brokerage
Operator-defined brokerage per segment and per broker, with slab structures and tier overrides configurable in admin.
- 02
Subscription Tiers
Free through Institutional plans gating broker count, algo strategies, order limits and API access.
- 03
API Access Tiers
Programmatic access sold by rate limit and scope - a natural B2B revenue line for algo traders and partners.
- 04
Broker Referral Revenue
Earn recurring revenue when users open broker accounts through your platform, by volume or flat referral fee.
- 05
Payment Gateway Margin
Apply transaction fees on deposits and withdrawals across Razorpay, Stripe and direct UPI rails.
- 06
White-Label Sub-Licensing
License your branded platform onward to partner brokers, with usage-based pricing that scales as they grow.
Market Timing
Why Launch a Zerodha-Style Trading Platform in 2026?
Retail participation in Indian markets has grown substantially, algorithmic execution keeps taking share of overall volume, and a new generation of traders expects real-time, mobile-first, socially connected platforms as a baseline rather than a differentiator. Operators still running legacy infrastructure are structurally disadvantaged in that environment – not because their brokerage is worse, but because the experience around it is.
01Own the Relationship, Not Rent It
Build a branded platform where you control the interface, the fee structure, the customer data and the pricing power - instead of renting distribution from an incumbent.
02Multi-Broker Is the Unmet Need
No mainstream Indian platform unifies broker accounts today. Traders holding two or three logins reconcile portfolios by hand, which is a real and unaddressed problem.
03Algo Access Is Still a Gap
Retail algo traders either hand-code broker connectors or pay high fees to third-party platforms with thin coverage. Built-in strategies plus an SDK removes both barriers at once.
04Compliance Becomes a Moat
SEBI-aligned KYC, retention and audit infrastructure is painful to retrofit and slow for competitors to match. Building it in from the start is a durable advantage.
05Revenue Beyond Brokerage
Subscription tiers, API access plans and broker referral income diversify away from per-trade economics, which matters when volumes are seasonal and competition compresses pricing.
06Skip Twelve to Eighteen Months
Broker integrations, real-time market data, order management and risk enforcement already exist, tested and documented. That is the part teams consistently underestimate.
Platform by the Numbers
Broker Integrations
Frontend Pages
Backend Modules
SDK Languages
The window matters. User acquisition in fintech is expensive and compounding: platforms that launch credible products early capture attention and word-of-mouth that late entrants have to buy back through marketing spend. An eight to twelve month delay is not neutral – it is the cost of the users your competitors sign in the meantime.
The Commercial Case
Marketability, Revenue Potential & Business Prospects
A trading platform is not only a technology product – it is a recurring-revenue business with unusually high switching costs. Once a user has connected their brokers, built watchlists, configured alerts and deployed strategies, moving to a competitor means rebuilding all of it. Retention compounds in a way it simply does not for most consumer software.
- 01
High Switching Cost
Once users connect brokers, build watchlists and run strategies, moving platforms is genuinely painful. Retention compounds.
- 02
Multiple Revenue Lines
Brokerage, subscriptions, API tiers, referral income and payment margin - diversified from day one.
- 03
Structural Market Tailwind
Retail participation and algo share are both rising in Indian markets, expanding the addressable base.
- 04
Enterprise Upsell Path
Retail launch first, then white-label licensing to partner brokers at materially higher contract values.
Per-trade brokerage configured per segment; subscription tiers gating broker count and algo access; API plans sold by rate limit; broker referral share; and transaction margin on deposits and withdrawals.
Every connected broker deepens lock-in, every deployed strategy raises switching cost, and every white-label partner turns the platform into infrastructure others build on.
These are not promises, but realistic business patterns trading platforms can aim for based on active-trader base, pricing tiers, broker partnerships, API adoption, and market execution.
Revenue can come from monthly subscription tiers, per-trade brokerage, premium analytics, and paid alert packs.
Best suited for niche broking startups, regional trading platforms, advisory-led communities, trading educators, and early-stage operators validating demand before scaling acquisition.
Revenue can come from tiered subscriptions, API access plans, broker referral share, premium data packs, and copy-trading fees.
Best suited for funded fintech startups, multi-broker aggregators, algo communities, wealth platforms, and operators scaling beyond an initial trader base.
Revenue can come from a stronger mix of subscriptions, brokerage, API tiers, white-label licensing, enterprise deployments, and partner revenue sharing.
Best suited for established brokerages, financial institutions, large fintech brands, prop desks, and SaaS operators licensing the platform onward to their own clients.

Product5 questions
01What is a Zerodha Clone App?
A Zerodha Clone App is a ready-made, white-label stock trading platform modelled on the experience Zerodha made popular in Indian discount broking: order placement, live market data, portfolio tracking, watchlists and charting. The Miracuves Zerodha Clone (MXZerodha) adds algorithmic execution and connects to eight Indian brokers through one unified order layer, and ships as a trader web platform, an investor portal, an Android app and an admin console under your own brand.
02Which brokers does it connect to?
Eight integrations ship with the platform: Zerodha, Upstox, 5 Paisa, Alice Blue, Angel One, ICICI Direct and Groww, plus a Demo broker for testing and onboarding. Traders link the accounts they already hold and see one portfolio, one order book and one P&L across all of them.
03Can I add a broker that isn’t on the list?
Yes. Each broker implements a single adapter interface, so adding one means writing that adapter, with no changes to order, trade or position logic. Adapters beyond the eight shipped connections are available as a Miracuves add-on, built to the same pattern.
04Does it support international markets?
Indian market segments are supported out of the box: equity, futures and options, commodities, currency, ETFs, IPOs, mutual funds and bonds. International exchange integrations such as NASDAQ and NYSE, with multi-currency positions, settlement and reporting, are available as a customization.
05How do I make money from it?
Through the revenue lines discount brokers like Zerodha are built on, plus a few they are not: per-trade brokerage by segment and broker, subscription tiers, API access plans, broker referral revenue, payment gateway margin on deposits and withdrawals, and white-label sub-licensing to partner brokers. All of them are configured from the admin console, without code changes or a redeployment.
Pricing & launch3 questions
06How much does it cost to build a Zerodha-like app in 2026?
The Miracuves Zerodha Clone is a fixed one-time price of $15,999 for the launch-ready white-label platform, with full source code. Building the same broker connectivity, order management and market data in-house typically takes 12 to 18 months. Additional brokers, international markets and compliance-heavy enterprise deployments are quoted separately, in writing, before any work starts.
07How long does it take to launch?
6 working days from the Miracuves side: the platform is rebranded and deployed to your server in that time. What sits outside it is on your side: brand assets, hosting access and broker API credentials, and for a regulated deployment your own SEBI registration and compliance sign-off, which run on their own timeline. The 6-day commitment is published on the Miracuves facts page.
08What support is included after launch?
Every ready-made Miracuves solution carries three cover periods from launch: 60 days of dedicated platform guidance, 6 months of priority bug resolution and 12 months of continuous product evolution, plus deployment assistance and the full technical documentation. First responses arrive in under 2 hours, Monday to Saturday, 10:00-19:00 IST. Extended support and a dedicated VAPT engagement are available as add-ons.
Compliance & security2 questions
09Is it legal to launch a Zerodha clone app?
Yes. Zerodha clone describes a category of software, not a copy of Zerodha: the Miracuves product contains no code, design or content taken from Zerodha, you launch under your own brand, and brokers are connected through their official APIs. What makes a launch lawful is your regulatory route. Executing client orders and holding client funds and securities requires a SEBI stock-broker and depository-participant registration in India (SEC broker-dealer registration with FINRA membership in the US, FCA authorization in the UK), held by your company or by the registered brokers you connect to. Miracuves provides the software, not legal or licensing advice.
10Is the platform secure enough for enterprise buyers?
It is built to pass procurement review: OWASP Top 10 (2021) mapping, a VAPT posture document, AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.2+ in transit, TOTP two-factor authentication, a four-tier role model enforced server-side, an encrypted broker credential vault and append-only audit logs. Miracuves holds no certification on your behalf; certification is issued to your operating entity against its own environment.
Ownership & Miracuves3 questions
11Do I get the source code?
Yes. You receive the complete monorepo with full ownership: the Next.js frontend, NestJS backend, Prisma schema, shared packages and all seven SDKs. There is no hosted dependency on Miracuves once you are live.
12Can I deploy on-premise?
Yes. Cloud, on-premise and hybrid deployments are all supported, with Docker and Kubernetes configs included, and the platform can be hosted in India for operators with data-residency requirements.
13Why choose Miracuves to build a Zerodha clone?
Miracuves has delivered 9,000+ projects for 6,000+ clients since 2010 and offers 90+ ready-made clone solutions, including fintech platforms for trading, investing, remittance and neobanking. The Zerodha Clone is already in production: a multi-broker trading platform went live on it with eight brokers connected, its client named only under NDA. Each company figure is published with its scope on the Miracuves facts page.
