How to fund your account

Before you start trading, you first need to fund your account. You can find out more about the various funding methods available below.

Please select your preferred funding method:

Card payments

The quickest way to place funds on your account is by credit or debit card if you are a professional client and by debit card only if you are a retail client. Successfully authorised payments by credit or debit card are allocated to your account immediately. For security reasons, your chosen card must be in the same name as your account with us is.
