Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. Before deciding to trade foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. You could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose.

How do I deposit funds into my account?

You can deposit funds via debit card, wire transfer or bank transfer (Automated Clearing House (ACH)).

  • We do not charge anything for you to deposit funds with any of these methods, but your bank may charge you on sending these funds to us.

You can only fund via a verified source, so please ensure your card or bank are verified first. Once verified you can go to the “Deposit Funds” screen and select your option.

Funding by debit card is the quickest and easiest way to fund your account. To learn how to add and verify a debit card to your account click here.

To deposit funds via wire or bank transfer or an already verified debit card, please log in to My IG and click 'add funds' next to the account you'd like to deposit into.

To deposit with a wire, contact your bank and use IG’s bank details as the receiving bank. Our details can be found on either the desktop or mobile applications when you select ‘Wire’ as the method you would like to use to deposit.
