An online suite of tools designed to supercharge your FIX onboarding.
fixspec is a cloud-based platform that puts you in control, working with your existing processes to give you more consistent, predictable, and transparent FIX integrations.
Workflow Management
We work with you to consolidate your FIX onboarding process visually. Map out multiple workflows, automate repeatable processes, and manage your onboarding timeline on a visual, easy-to-reference dashboard so that you know exactly where you are with onboarding each and every client.
Cloud Specifications
FIX specifications are the lifeblood of the financial services industry, and each specification must be properly documented, revised, and distributed. Inaccurate or poorly-documented specifications cost time and money. We can help you upload, manage, and share consistent FIX specifications with simple documentation, revision, and distribution at the click of a button.
Testing & Certification
Simple, repeatable, and transparent certification. fixspec monitors your existing test environment, validating message traffic in line with your FIX specification, and displays human-readable values and errors in real-time – even for binary protocols. Problem solve quickly and easily with full transparency over the certification process.
Customer Portal
Prefer to give your customers control? Our customer portal enables your customers to self-serve the entire onboarding process; from access to the latest cloud specifications, through to testing & certification. Forget PDFs, emails, and lengthy phone calls; your customers can instantly reference your FIX specification, build, test, and certify their integration.
Trusted by some of the world's biggest banks, exchanges, and trading venues.
FIX is the backbone of financial services integration. fixspec brings FIX integration into the 21st century. Our supported-platform works across all asset classes to make onboarding customers in Investment Banking, Trading Venues, and Financial Exchanges consistent, repeatable, and transparent.
Sell-side
Managing integration in a sell-side firm is often complex and time-consuming. Customer orders and market data feed into internal systems, which in turn connect to firms, trading venues, and post-trade processes.
While FIX is the backbone of electronic trading, each interface requires an element of customisation. We understand the complexity this brings, and are highly experienced in handling bespoke integration requirements that are common in a sell-side firm.
We can work with you to understand the unique requirements of your firm, streamline processes, and enable you to connect, test, and comply customers more efficiently, with full visibility over the end-to-end onboarding process.
Trading Venues
Managing the ongoing release cycle of an active trading venue involves multiple, concurrent projects.
Each functional release triggers an API update which needs to be documented and distributed to customers. This crucial step ensures that your customers understand the impact of the change, and can accurately implement the required updates prior to the release.
We’ve created a tool that enables you to easily update your cloud specifications, distribute the updates to your customers, test and certify the changes, whilst giving you full visibility over multiple, concurrent projects.
With fixspec, your release cycle becomes a streamlined, repeatable process.
We're not fixed on FIX.
FIX may be the backbone of our industry, but we appreciate that there are multiple protocols in use. And, although ‘fix’ is in our name, the fixspec platform can support a wide range of protocols. Whether they are industry-standard or proprietary, text-based or binary, we can work with your chosen protocol(s).
