Software registration

This functionality will enable the registration of the ISV and self-developed software.

Registered ISVs are required to also register all their software, which is offered to Xetra clients and is intended to be used to connect to the respective market interfaces (FIX LF, ETI, FIXML & FpML), as the next step. The deadline for completing this step is 14 February 2025.

In addition to this, members with self-developed software (both trading and clearing) are also required to register their software which is intended to be used to connect to the Xetra interfaces (FIX LF, ETI, FIXML & FpML) starting from14 February 2025.

Software selection

This functionality will be introduced for the selection of the ISV and/or self-developed software

Trading participants & clearing members using third-party vendor software or self-developed software of another member to connect to Xetra interfaces (FIX LF, ETI, FIXML & FpML) in simulation and production environments are required to select the software via this functionality. This process will start from 14 February 2025.

Moreover, ISVs, who have access to DBAG simulation environments, are also required to select the software they use to connect to Xetra interfaces (FIX LF, ETI, FIXML & FpML) in simulation via this functionality. This step is a part of the registration process for the ISV admission.

The enhancement of the new and existing FIX LF & ETI sessions and FIXML & FpML accounts with the addition of the software usage information

With this initiative, the session ordering process for FIX LF & ETI and account creation process for FIXML & FpML will be enhanced with the addition of the vendor and software information in Member Section

All trading participants and clearing members are required to enhance their existing sessions and accounts with the vendor & software information starting from 14 February 2025, following the selection of the software via the software selection functionality.

This requirement is also applicable for the ISVs for their simulation sessions and accounts. 

The deadline for completing the software selection and enhancement of the existing sessions and accounts with the vendor & software information is 13 June 2025.

Starting from 18 April 2025, the enhancement of the FIX LF or ETI sessions or FIXML / FpML accounts with the addition of vendor and software information will be mandatory.
