Account and money protection

Your account. Your money. Protected in layers.

Strong sign-in, safeguards on your trading and clear rules for how your money is held. Here is what we do, what you can do, and what protection cannot cover.

Read this first

Protection is not a promise of profit.

Safeguards protect your account, not your trades. Markets can move against you and CFDs are leveraged, so you can lose some or all of the money you put in. Nothing on this page guarantees a result.

How it fits together

Three layers of protection.

Protection works best in layers. Each one covers a different risk, and you control some of them yourself.

  • Sign-in: your password plus a second check, so a stolen password is not enough
  • Account: limits, alerts and review on unusual activity
  • Money: client funds are held separately from the company’s own money
Keeping your account safe

What we do.

Two-step sign-in

A second check, such as a code on your phone, when you log in or change details.

Instant alerts

Messages when someone signs in on a new device or asks for a withdrawal.

Activity monitoring

Unusual activity is reviewed. We may pause a withdrawal to check it is you.

Verified accounts

We check who you are before you trade, which keeps fraudsters out.

Your money

How client money is handled.

What to know
Client moneyHeld separately from the company's own funds, in segregated accounts
WithdrawalsSent back to an account in your own name
Negative balanceFor retail clients, you cannot lose more than the funds in your account
Margin close-outPositions can close automatically if your margin falls too low, to limit losses
StatementsEvery deposit, withdrawal, trade and fee is in your account history
What protection does not cover

Be clear about the limits.

  • Losses from trading: markets can move against you
  • Money you send to someone who pretends to be us
  • Losses from sharing your password or codes
  • Market closures, gaps and slippage that affect your price
Your part

We will never ask for your password or a code.

Contact support straight away. We act first and ask questions after.

Questions

Protection, answered.

Client money is held separately from company money and your account has several safeguards. Trading itself is risky, so you can still lose money on a trade.

For retail clients, no. Negative balance protection means you cannot lose more than the funds in your account. Professional clients do not have this: see the Advanced Trading Account.

Change your password, then contact support at once. We can freeze the account while we check.

No. Never share your password or a code, even with someone who says they work for us.

Risk warning. Forex and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Make sure you understand how they work and whether you can afford the high risk of losing your money.
