The Parqet alternative that can’t read your portfolio
No autosync, on purpose: nothing logs in to your broker for you. Your portfolio and wallet data is encrypted on your device before it syncs, and export is on every plan, free included.
14 days of everything · Then a free plan that never expires · Export on every plan
Turbobulls if you want investments, spending and net worth in one place that no server can read, paying for the side you actually use, or both, on top of a free plan that never expires.
Parqet if you want automatic broker sync, X-Ray look-through into what your ETFs actually hold, or its tax dashboard.
On price: Turbobulls from €3.99 a month billed yearly, or free. Parqet Plus €11.99 a month, or the free Basic tier. Checked September 2026.
What the difference looks like
Four views of the app on sample data. Try the tabs, or open the read-only demo, which needs no signup.
Spending sits next to the portfolio
Income, expenses, savings rate and real cash flow, in the same encrypted account as your holdings, with envelope budgeting on top. Parqet positions itself as a wealth tracker, with cash, savings, crypto, metals and property beside the securities; personal expense tracking and budgeting are not described on its pricing page or homepage as of September 2026.
By instrument, and honest about it
Country, region, sector and industry, on a paid plan. A holding is placed by the instrument, so a world tracker domiciled in Ireland reads as Ireland rather than as the countries it actually holds. That is exactly what Parqet’s X-Ray does and we do not, and it is worth knowing before you choose.
Received and declared, kept apart
Declared payments are never counted in your totals until they land, and withholding tax is recorded per payment so the figure is net rather than gross. Parqet markets a dividend dashboard and a forecast that projects future income; both products put the deeper parts behind a paid plan.
Your portfolio on any past date
Rebuilt from your own transactions rather than a stored snapshot, so it reflects what you actually held, with splits applied retroactively.
14 days of everything, no card. Or click around the read-only demo first, on sample data.
Switching from Parqet
Start from your brokers rather than from Parqet.
Save your Recovery Key
Save the Recovery Key when you create the workspace: we cannot read your data, so we also cannot reset a forgotten password, and the Recovery Key is the way back in.
Get a statement from each broker
A statement from the broker is the record everything else was derived from, and it is where Turbobulls has dedicated adapters: Interactive Brokers activity statements, Trading 212, DEGIRO, Coinbase, Crypto.com, Delta, eToro, Saxo, Tastytrade, Trade Republic, Avanza, Montrose, XTB, TradeVille, Investimental and Revolut personal, with ING Romania, Raiffeisen Romania and Salt Bank on the bank side. Any other broker goes through the generic CSV mapper, where you match the columns once. Parqet offers a CSV export of your activities “only for Plus or Investor subscribers”, per its export announcement; that file takes the same route. On Basic, start from the statements.
Import one broker at a time
Then import one broker at a time and check the holdings against the statement before the next. The preview marks duplicates before anything is written, and the commit is atomic, so a bad file never leaves you half-imported.
Plan for the part that changes. In Parqet, autosync delivers trades from a supported broker on its own. Here they arrive by file, because a sync service would have to read what it fetches and our server cannot. For most portfolios that is one statement a month or a quarter. Export from Turbobulls is on every plan, free included, so nothing you bring in is trapped.
Which one fits you?
Three questions. We will say so when the answer is Parqet.
Answer the three questions and a recommendation appears here.
Side by side
Where they differ first, then where they agree. Based on each platform’s public documentation as checked in September 2026.
The Turbobulls column describes Turbo Pro, the plan that includes everything; the free plan is capped and keeps a working slice of each paid section. Spending Pro and Investing Pro cover one side each and leave the other exactly at free-plan depth. Everything in the Parqet column comes from its own pages, read in September 2026, and every negative rests on what those pages say; they are listed in the footer. Parqet may have changed since this was compiled. Its own pricing and documentation pages are the authoritative source.
14 days of everything, no card. If you never pay, you keep a free plan that never expires, and nothing is deleted.
The long version
Everything behind the table, one topic at a time.
Two different approaches to portfolio tracking
Parqet is a German wealth tracker, operated by Parqet Fintech GmbH of Hamburg, that publicly markets broker autosync, fund look-through and a tax dashboard, with savings accounts, crypto, precious metals and real estate tracked beside the securities. It publishes an English version of its site.
Turbobulls takes a different path: investments, expenses and income tracked together, encrypted on your device so the server cannot read any of it. Beyond the portfolio it covers your wallet, bank accounts, salary and envelope budgets, and reports net worth across all of it.
Both handle multi-currency portfolios, benchmarking and performance analytics, and neither is a trading tool. Where they differ most is scope, privacy architecture and specialised tooling, and those are not independent of each other, which is the point of the next tab.
How each platform handles your data
TurbobullsThis is where the two differ most fundamentally. Turbobulls encrypts holdings, transactions and performance data on your device before they are sent, with AES-256-GCM under a key derived from your password using PBKDF2. The platform is designed so that not even Turbobulls can read your financial information.
ParqetParqet operates a hosted model, and its privacy policy is specific about what that means. It names Parqet Fintech GmbH as controller. It describes the portfolio database as anonymised, with no name, email or IBAN in it, and stored in Germany. Its help centre says portfolio, login and payment data are stored apart from each other, and that PDF statements are read on your device rather than uploaded. Your portfolio is not end-to-end encrypted: no Parqet page describes it held under a key only you have. Its own documentation is the authoritative source.
This is not a criticism so much as a description of a trade. Autosync cannot work against data the server cannot read: something has to log in, fetch the transactions and store them in a form the server can work with. In Parqet’s case, per its autosync post, the login runs on your own device for ING, comdirect and Consorsbank, and through its BaFin-licensed partner QPLIX for Trade Republic and Scalable Capital. Parqet never sees your credentials and keeps no permanent connection. What it stores is the transactions, which it describes as anonymised. Turbobulls has taken the side that gives you a server holding ciphertext, and pays for it in file import. Both are EU companies and GDPR applies to both; the difference is not jurisdiction but whether the server can read your data at all. See exactly how the encryption works, including what we can still see.
- AES-256-GCM on device encryption, PBKDF2 key derivation
- Per-project keys, recovery key available
- No broker connections anywhere in the path
- Export on every plan, never paywalled
- Hosted model; its privacy policy describes the portfolio database as anonymised and stored in Germany
- Parqet Fintech GmbH named as controller
- Autosync with five named brokers; per its autosync post, credentials are handled on your device or by its partner QPLIX
- Portfolio data is not end-to-end encrypted; a hosted model, per its data protection page
Dividend tracking
Both track dividends, and both put the deeper parts behind a paid plan. Parqet markets a dividend dashboard and a dividend forecast that projects future income from current holdings, listed among the full analysis features on its paid tiers.
Turbobulls imports dividends for supported instruments and shows income by month with a calendar, including what has been declared but not yet paid, which is kept out of your totals until it lands. It records withholding tax per payment, so the income figure is net rather than gross, and splits are applied retroactively. The full calendar and the yields, yield on cost and current yield, are on a paid plan that includes the investing side, which means Investing Pro or Turbo Pro; the free plan keeps the last three months. Dividends are also counted in the return breakdown rather than sitting in a view of their own.
Where Turbobulls differs is context: dividend income sits alongside salary, side income and personal expenses, so you can see whether passive income is growing relative to what you actually spend. Turbobulls has no equivalent of Parqet’s forecast.
Expenses, budgeting and net worth
Turbobulls tracks spending with categories and tags, cash accounts, debt, salary and savings rate alongside the portfolio, and reports net worth across all of it, with a financial independence projection on top. Budgeting is envelope-based: each month you assign the money you actually have to categories and watch what is left, unspent money rolls over, and overspending comes out of next month’s pool, so the budget stays tied to real cash.
Parqet positions itself as a wealth tracker. Its pricing page describes securities, savings accounts, fixed deposits, crypto, precious metals, real estate and other assets in one overview, settlement accounts showing the cash at each broker, and a capital-flow view of your savings rate. Personal expense tracking, income categories and budgeting are not described on its pricing page or homepage as of September 2026. The pricing page does list connections to third-party apps and services, capped per tier; what those cover is outside what we checked. If you want day-to-day spending alongside your portfolio, plan on a second app next to it.
For anyone who wants only the investing side, that breadth is capability they will not use, and it is worth knowing before signing up. Investing Pro exists for that reader: it covers the investing side in full and leaves the spending side exactly at free-plan depth rather than charging for it. On the free plan budgeting is read-only, and the caps include one workspace, three accounts, ten holdings, two brokers, 50 portfolio transactions, 120 wallet transactions and one benchmark.
Analytics, and the one Parqet has that we do not
Parqet markets X-Ray, which looks through an ETF to the holdings inside it, along with a tax dashboard covering tax paid on sales, dividends and withholding, and performance comparison against benchmarks such as the FTSE All World and the S&P 500. Those sit among the full analysis features on its paid tiers.
X-Ray is the one worth calling out, because Turbobulls has no equivalent. Turbobulls breaks a portfolio down by country and region, but it places a holding by the instrument, so a world tracker domiciled in Ireland reads as Ireland rather than as the countries it actually holds. Look-through is on the public roadmap and is not built. If that is the feature you are choosing on, Parqet offers it now and we do not.
What Turbobulls puts on a paid plan instead is return attribution: the Sharpe ratio, maximum drawdown, return volatility, and the split between capital gain and currency gain. The last matters mostly to people holding across currencies, which is the case Turbobulls was built around. Benchmarking runs against any ETF, stock or basket you add, one on free and no limit once you pay. Return on investment and money-weighted return are on every plan. Four of the twelve advanced metrics stay visible on the free plan, among them time-weighted return and growth rate; the other eight are paid. Allocation by asset type, broker, currency and tag is on every plan; sector, industry, country and region form one paid group.
Getting your data in
This is the clearest practical trade between the two. Parqet markets autosync with Trade Republic, Scalable Capital, ING, comdirect and Consorsbank on every tier, repeatable as often as you like, plus PDF and CSV import from 50+ brokers; the per-tier caps of 2, 5 and 20 apply to connections with third-party apps and services, not to autosync. Turbobulls has no autosync at all, and that follows from the encryption rather than being a feature that has not shipped.
Turbobulls ships CSV and XLSX adapters, among them generic CSV with manual mapping, Interactive Brokers activity statements, Trading 212, DEGIRO, Coinbase, Crypto.com, Delta, eToro, Saxo, Tastytrade, Trade Republic, Avanza, Montrose, XTB, TradeVille, Investimental, Revolut personal, ING Romania, Raiffeisen Romania and Salt Bank. You pick the broker and upload the file, and if the file does not match the adapter you picked, the app points you at the one it does match. The import preview flags duplicates before anything is written, and the commit is atomic: an import either lands in full or not at all. CSV and Excel export are available on every plan.
If your broker is one Parqet autosyncs and that is what you want, this page is not going to talk you out of it. Anyone moving the other way can bring a CSV of their activities, which Parqet offers to Plus and Investor subscribers per its export announcement, and map it through the generic CSV adapter, which also covers any broker without a dedicated adapter.
Where each one is weaker
No tool wins everywhere. This is the part most comparison pages leave out.
- No broker autosync, and none possible under the encryption model
- No fund look-through: a world tracker reads as its domicile
- No tax dashboard
- No dividend forecast
- The free plan is genuinely capped: 10 holdings, 3 accounts, 2 brokers
- Portfolio data is not end-to-end encrypted; a hosted model, with the portfolio database described as anonymised and stored in Germany
- Autosync ends with your transactions stored on Parqet’s servers, which its autosync post describes as anonymised
- No personal expense tracking or budgeting; its pricing page lists the feature set of a wealth tracker
- Portfolios, watchlists and third-party app connections capped by tier: 1, 5 and 15 portfolios, 2, 5 and 20 connections
- CSV export only for Plus or Investor subscribers, per its export announcement from 2022
All five were checked against Parqet’s own pages in September 2026. Its own documentation is the authority.
