Webull’s global crypto push takes shape with Australian market debut

U.S.-based electronic trading platform Webull has extended its cryptocurrency offerings to Australia. The development comes just days after reintegrating crypto services in the U.S. The platform will allow commission-free or low-cost trading across stocks, ETFs, options, futures, and now digital assets to Australian users.

Webull Australia has partnered with Coinbase Prime to give access to up to 240 cryptocurrencies with one of the lowest spreads in the market, priced at 30 basis points, it said in a press release. The new platform promises to deliver institutional-grade trading architecture, secure custody, real-time data, and financing solutions. The platform will also offer advanced charting tools with over 40 technical indicators and 24/7 customer support. This is designed to enhance accessibility and usability for a wide range of investor types.

Expanding its global presence 

The trading platform currently serves over 24 million registered users across 14 markets, including the U.S., Brazil, Canada, the UK, Japan, Singapore, South Africa, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Mexico, and Australia. In July, the firm consolidated its crypto operations by folding the separate Webull Pay entity into the parent company, streamlining infrastructure to support global rollout.

Rob Talevski, CEO of Webull Securities Australia, said the launch marks “the next phase of our ongoing mission to provide Australian investors with the freedom to trade what they want, when they want,” highlighting the platform’s versatile support for individual accounts, Self-Managed Super Funds (SMSFs), trusts, and company accounts.

Focus back on digital assets

Webull has forayed into international markets in the past when it entered the Brazilian market, using it as a testing ground for integrated crypto offerings. In fact, the company recently relaunched its U.S. crypto operation on August 25, 2025. They decided to have over 50 cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana, back on the app. This was restored to the main app after a two-year hiatus due to regulatory uncertainty during its IPO preparation.

Webull’s entry into the Australian crypto exchange landscape can be a game-changer, where domestic platforms could face stiff competition. The latter typically charge much higher fees, whereas Webull’s cost-effective and high-security option would come to the rescue of retail and institutional investors.
