EverTrade is part of Florida-based EverBank, which specialises in postal, telephone and internet banking. It offers a large range of international markets – especially in Europe – for online and broker-assisted trading.
The service is roughly comparable to Fidelity in terms of reach and which one would work out as better value would depend on your individual trading pattern. Broadly, Fidelity looks cheaper for online trades in many circumstances, while Evertrade may be more competitive when placing orders through a broker.
