For spread bets, CFDs and share dealing, there are some extra services that we charge for.
| Service | Charge |
| Direct Market Access (DMA) | There’s no charge for using DMA to trade CFDs on forex* and shares, or buy and sell shares via our share dealing service, though in order to access live DMA prices for some shares you’ll need to pay a monthly exchange fee. |
| Live price data feeds | Obtaining live share prices from an exchange, whether that's to trade share CFDs or buy and sell shares via a share dealing account incurs a monthly fee. |
| ProRealTime Charts | Subscribing to real-time charts costs £30 per month. This is refunded if you place four or more trade a month. We reserve the right to charge you for the service if your qualifying trades are of an extremely low value. |
| Account documentation fee | We charge a $50 fee on accounts which have not supplied a mandatory W-8 or W-9 form prior to the dividend ex-date of a qualifying trade on a US-incorporated stock. We do not apply this fee to accounts with up-to-date documentation or accounts which have not entered into qualifying trades. We will notify you if you have entered into a qualifying trade and need to complete a form. |
* From 2 July 2018, regulatory interventions mean that certain products are unavailable to retail traders. As a result, we can only offer Forex Direct to professional traders.
