NEW YORK, Aug. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — UP Fintech Holding Limited (“UP Fintech” or the “Company”, NASDAQ: TIGR, and all its subsidiaries and consolidated entities), a leading online brokerage firm committed to redefining global investing through next-generation technologies, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. In the second quarter, the company achieved a total revenue of US$ 87.4 million, reflecting a quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) increase of 10.8% and a year-over-year (YoY) increase of 32.4%, hitting a new record high. Non-GAAP net income attributable to UP Fintech was US$5.2 million. In the second quarter of 2024, the Company added 60,600 new global account holders, a QoQ increase of 17%, bringing the total number of global accounts to 2.3 million. 48,900 new funded accounts were added, bringing the total number of funded accounts at the end of the second quarter to 982,300, a YoY increase of 17%. Additionally, market trading activity continued to increase in the second quarter, with the Company’s total trading volume growing 62.5% YoY to US$105.9 billion. Net asset inflow remained robust, reaching US$7 billion for the first half of the year, which drove total account balance up by 16.2% QoQ and 121.1% YoY to an all-time high of US$38.2 billion.

UP Fintech’s founder and CEO, Wu Tianhua, stated, “In the second quarter, the company’s business grew significantly as the market environment became more active, with revenue reaching a record high. As of early August, the number of funded clients worldwide has exceeded 1 million, and total client assets have continued to reach new highs for the past three consecutive quarters, fully demonstrating the long-term growth potential of Tiger Brokers.”

“Tiger Brokers is always committed to a ‘Customer First’ approach and has continued to develop local products in markets such as Singapore and Hong Kong to meet the diverse needs of investors. Following the launch of Singapore’s first debit card with fractional share rewards and the Cash Boost trading account in the first quarter, we have received widespread market acclaim, significantly boosting local trading volume and activity. In Hong Kong, after pioneering the offering of virtual asset trading services to professional investors, we have now fully extended this service to retail investors as well. In early August, we launched a ‘Double Free’ promotion, exempting commissions and platform fees, while supporting real-time USD settlement for virtual asset transactions. This provides users with a truly secure, convenient, and cost-effective one-stop global trading service, leading the way in the Hong Kong tech brokerage experience.”

Singapore maintains a leading position with popular local products

Client assets doubled QoQ in Hong Kong in Q2

Singapore’s leading position continues to strengthen, with a 112% QoQ increase in newly funded clients in Q2, a 50% YoY increase in the number of transactions, and a 548% QoQ increase in net asset inflow.

In Q2, BOSS Card usage surged, with transaction volumes and user numbers up 258% and 42% quarter-on-quarter, respectively. The card is particularly popular among investors under 35, who account for nearly 60% of new users.

This account allows clients to obtain trading leverage without depositing funds and has attracted a large number of active users since its launch in April. Recently, Cash Boost trading accounts have also achieved a direct connection with CDP (Central Depository Account).

Currently, all investors in Hong Kong can trade up to 18 virtual assets**, including Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), as well as a wide range of global assets such as stocks, options, futures, US Treasuries, and funds through the one-stop Tiger Trade platform, enabling seamless allocation and management of virtual and traditional financial assets.

At the same time, user trading became more active, with the weekly average of Daily Average Revenue Trades (DARTs) increasing by 17% QoQ.

US options trading now includes stop-loss and trailing stop-loss orders, helping investors better cope with changes in the options market. US and Hong Kong stock options now feature forward P/E ratio analysis, covering nearly a decade of data, to assist with options pricing. By continuously strengthening options trading features, the daily average number of options trades (DARTs) increased by 13% QoQ in Q2. To address investors’ focus on individual stocks, Tiger has introduced a customizable daily research digest, which delivers curated essential information in the morning and evening***, providing users with a more personalized and convenient experience. The trading feed feature continues to be favored by users, with a 150% QoQ increase in subscribers and a 170% QoQ increase in average daily guided trade orders. Previously, 24-hour trading for US stocks was fully launched, and currently supports up to 9,500 US stocks and ETFs, allowing trading at any time, 24/5, providing more convenience for investors trading US stocks across time zones.

Launched in Q2 of last year, TigerGPT, the first AI investment assistant in the brokerage industry to integrate ChatGPT technology and the latest financial data, has continued to accumulate users.

Quickplay’s Triple Play of New Customers, Products and Partnerships Set to Dominate NAB 2026

Published

on

By

LAS VEGAS, April 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — (2026 NAB Show) – Quickplay, the Content to Value Operating System, today unveiled a broad array of company news including: an AI-enriched solution that identifies social signals and trending topics, and connects them to relevant content within minutes; transformative customer deployments; and powerful industry research and partnerships.

Debuting at NAB, Social Signals is a new technology within Quickplay AI Studio that identifies trending cultural moments and matches them with high-value content assets to automatically generate social-ready clips and posts. By combining external trend data with performance insights from owned channels, Social Signals enables content teams to move from insight to publishing in minutes, rather than days.

Social Signals is a key part of Quickplay’s AI Studio Solution, which includes metadata enrichment, moment detection, smart verticalization and multi-platform publishing. Its Smart Verticalizer uses multimodal AI and action tracking to intelligently reframe video –preserving key visual elements such as faces, gameplay and on-screen graphics – to maintain broadcast-quality standards across short-form formats. The company has also partnered with Visible Things, the creator-driven platform to deploy the first implementation of Social Signals across the Visible Things infrastructure.

Quickplay further announced it has gone live with Gray Media (NYSE: GTN)’s new streaming experience, which included consolidating 1,300 digital touchpoint, including 163 websites, 326 mobile apps and 815 CTV apps onto a single data-driven platform powered by Quickplay and Google Cloud (NASDAQ: GOOGL). The system now manages 269 live channels and 123 FAST channels across Amazon Prime Video, Roku (NASDAQ: ROKU), Samsung TV Plus, Vizio and Fire TV, delivering hyper-local content to 37% of U.S. TV households.

Quickplay also announced the cloud-native transformation of Television New Zealand’s streaming platform, TVNZ+. Completed in 12 months, Quickplay replaced a fragmented ecosystem of six+ vendors across UI/UX, content management, video processing, advertising and analytics with a single, unified platform. The team at TVNZ also named Amazon Web Services (NASDAQ: AMZN) as its preferred cloud platform for the transformation, further increasing efficiencies and lowering costs by consolidating onto a single cloud vendor. The technology overhaul will drive unprecedented innovation and efficiency for TVNZ, New Zealand’s state-owned broadcaster, which reaches over two million New Zealanders daily.

“Broadcasters don’t need another point solution. They need an AI-enabled operating system that turns content into measurable outcomes,” said Paul Pastor, Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer at Quickplay. “At NAB, we’re showing how to bring cultural moments, content catalogs and distribution workflows together to create engaging and revenue opportunities in real time.”

In partnership with Caretta Research, Quickplay will also release new research, “The Broadcaster Revolution Will Not Be Televised,” highlighting a critical bottleneck in the industry: North American broadcasters spend approximately 75% of their time on technical workflows, leaving only 25% for content creation. The report outlines how automated workflows and unified operations can help broadcasters meet the growing demand for short-form video while maintaining editorial quality and accelerating monetization.

Additionally, Quickplay has joined NAB PILOT, a coalition of innovators, educators and advocates dedicated to advancing broadcast technologies and cultivating new media opportunities. As a part of this group, Quickplay is expanding its collaboration with broadcasters to redefine how value is derived from content.

Quickplay at NAB 2026:

Paul Pastor, Jordan Bartow, and Peter Tanner of Quickplay, and Albert Lai of Google Cloud will be on a panel: An Audience of One: How Gray Media + Google Cloud + Quickplay are Using AI and Cloud OTT to Personalize Local News, Enable User-Generated Content, Engage Younger Viewers, and Unlock New Revenue for Broadcasters.
