FOREX.com Review 2026

How safe is FOREX.com?

FOREX.comhas a trust score 95, from its regulation, reputation, and reviews.

1. Regulation

As a sign of trust, FOREX.com is regulated by six tier-1 regulators, one tier-2 regulator, and one tier-3 regulator. These regions include Europe, Canada, the UK and, of course, the U.S. A large reason for such a strong presence globally is FOREX.com’s parent company, StoneX Group Inc., a publicly traded company.

AFSL is an Australian Financial Services Licence.

What this all means is that FOREX.com is a reputable and trusted brand, all over the world. In our own assessment, FOREX.com scores 8/10 for trust.

As one of the oldest forex brokers, FOREX.com is also one of the most trusted, especially given how many jurisdictions the broker offers trading services in.

The MAS Financial Institutions Directory lists StoneX Financial Pte. Ltd. as a Capital Markets Services Licensee and Exempt Financial Adviser. If you are in Singapore, see our FOREX.com for Singapore traders for that entity’s record and its Singapore account terms.

2. Reputation

FOREX.com has been around since 1999, with headquarters in New Jersey, USA. Despite its premium domain name, FOREX.com shows surprisingly moderate search visibility. With approximately 18,100 monthly Google searches, it ranks as the 44th most popular forex broker based on our analysis of 67 brokers.

However, its web traffic tells a different story, with Similarweb reporting 1,583,000 global visits in February 2026, placing it as the 18th most visited broker-a significant discrepancy between search volume and actual site visits.

FOREX.com is operated by StoneX Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SNEX), a Fortune 100 company with a 100+ year track record. StoneX is a major financial services organization ranked #66 in the 2024 Fortune 500 list of the largest United States corporations by total revenue.

Through its various subsidiaries (including StoneX Trading), StoneX serves more than 54,000 commercial, institutional, and payments clients, along with more than 400,000 active retail accounts across more than 180 countries. In Australia, FOREX.com is the rebrand of the long-running City Index Australia business, operating under the same StoneX Financial Pty Ltd entity (AFSL 345646). Both brands are owned by StoneX Group Inc.

How this is measured

Google Ads reports how many times a month people searched each broker's brand terms, and the brokers are ranked on that figure alone.

A term counts for a broker only when that broker's own website holds the first organic Google result for it; bare brand words that any company could own are left out.

A month-on-month change prints only where the previous month reached 1,000 searches, because Google rounds smaller volumes.

The figures refresh on the 15th of each month with the newest month Google has published, and the first-result check repeats every quarter.

FOREX.com at a glance

FOREX.com spreads and fees

What trading FOREX.com costs

One standard lot of EUR/USD on FOREX.com's standard account costs US$12.00 for the round turn: 1.2 pips of spread (US$12.00), with no commission.

Cost of trading EUR/USD with FOREX.com, at 1 standard lot and 20 trades a month

Account	A month of trading	One round turn, 1 lot
One spread, no commission1.2 pips, published average	US$240.00	US$12.00

A pip on EUR/USD is US$10.00 per standard lot, so the cost of a round turn is the spread in pips times that, plus any commission. The cost table above prices a round turn for FOREX.com's account with a single spread and no commission. Its other account carries a commission that varies rather than a single flat figure per lot (our record reads: DMA Account $0M - $100M - $6.00 $100M - $250M - $4.00 $250M - $500M - $3.50 $500M - $1B - $3.00 $1B - $2B - $2.50 $2B+ -), so no one number can be multiplied out into a round turn.

FOREX.com offers 3 main trading account types for retail traders as follows:

• Standard / Spread-Only: commission-free, available in every region. Called “Spread-Only” in the US, “Standard” elsewhere.
• MT4 account: commission-free, available in Australia, the UK, the US, Canada, and Singapore. Not offered in Europe.
• MT5 account: available in the US, Canada, Europe (MT5 only, no MT4), and via the Global division. Not offered in Australia, the UK, or Singapore.
• RAW Pricing (commission-based): available in the US, Canada, Europe, and via the Global division. Not offered in Australia, the UK, or Singapore.
• Professional account: available in Australia (ASIC Wholesale and Sophisticated criteria), and via Elective Professional classification in the UK (FCA) and Europe (CySEC) for clients meeting the eligibility criteria. Pro accounts waive retail leverage caps. This review does not cover Pro accounts in detail.

Notes:

1. Spread-Only and Standard are both commission-free accounts, but are renamed for specific regions.
2. The MetaTrader accounts are not all commission free: in the US, MT4 is spread-only, while MT5 runs spread-only or RAW, and the RAW option carries a fixed $7 commission per $100k. At StoneX Europe Ltd, the MT5 account is commission free except on shares, and the RAW Spread MT5 account costs $5 per $100k.
3. Corporate accounts for institutional and retail business clients are also available; these accounts are not covered in this review
4. A VIP account is available in Singapore. This account is not covered in this review

1. Raw Account Spreads

The RAW Pricing account is commission-based, meaning you pay the spread plus a commission charge on top. It is available in the US, Canada, Europe, and via the Global division. It is not offered in Australia, the UK, or Singapore. Platform choice on a RAW account depends on where you trade: US RAW Pricing runs on the FOREX.com platform, TradingView, or MT5, and Canadian RAW Pricing on the FOREX.com platform or MT5. In Europe, the RAW Spread account covers Web and Mobile only, with MT5 requiring its own RAW Spread MT5 account and MT4 absent from every RAW account. FOREX.com had higher than average spreads among the 39 raw accounts we evaluated in April 2026.

Avg. spreads are taken from each broker’s website and updated monthly. Last update on 1 Sep 2026

However, when comparing the raw account spreads of FOREX.com to the average broker, it shows tighter spreads than the average.

2. Raw Account Commission Rate

This account has lower spreads than the Spread-Only account, as low as 0 pips but you will also need to pay a commission. The RAW Pricing account charges $7 USD per $100K USD each way for clients in Canada and the US (i.e. $14 in round-turn) which is relatively standard for these financial markets.

If you are trading outside the UK, the US and Canada such as in Asia or Africa or Europe then the commission is $5 each way ($10 round-turn per lot).

3. Commission-Free accounts

A. Spread-Only (US only)

B: Standard Account: Outside the US)

C. MetaTrader account (US, Canadian, European and emerging markets)

D: MT4 Account (UK and Singapore)

E. MT5 Account (Canada)

Commission-free accounts are available in all countries and have a number of names depending on where you are trading from. As far as you need to be concerned as far as account name goes is the the trading platforms you can choose. For the Spread-Only or Standard account, you’ll have access to the FOREX.com trading platform, while to use MT4 or MT5, you’ll have to open a MetaTrader/MT4/MT5 account.

As we mentioned earlier, average spreads may vary depending on what country you’re in and what market you’re trading. If you are in the U.S. for example, the absolute minimum spread you can obtain is 1.2 pips but remember, the U.S. is trading with spot not CFDs. Minimum EUR/USD spreads outside the US range from 0.5 pts in Australia and Singapore, to 0.7 pts in the UK and Europe, to 1.0 pt in Canada and via the Global division.

4. Swap-Free Account Fees

If you are unable to accept and pay swap fees (also called rollover or overnight costs) for religious reasons, a swap-free account is available on request.

5. Other Fees

There is no charge for deposits and withdrawals at FOREX.com. If your account becomes inactive, there is a fee of $15 per month after 12 months.

Verdict on FOREX.com Fees

Overall, while FOREX.com combines the benefits of a spread-based and commission-based account, there are more cost effective brokers from our observation.

Active Trader Program (available in US and Canada)

Like a lot of top brokers out there, FOREX.com offers an Active Trader Program for high-volume traders.

You don’t have to apply to be an Active Trader, you simply need to deposit $10,000 or trade a certain amount of volume in a calendar month. In the U.S., this is $25K per month for an existing client and $50K per month for a new client.

The major benefit of the Active Trader Program is that you receive cash rebates for being an active trader (I.E. trading in high volume).

These rebates are tiered depending on how much volume you trade. The more you trade, the higher rebates you receive. Your rebates will also depend, again, on what country you are based in. We have only covered the U.S. (and Canada) here.

As an example:

If your monthly FX volume is US $200m, you qualify for Level 2 FX rebates and receive $5 for every $1m traded in the month

Your monthly volume rebate is $1000 (200 x $5).

If you live outside the U.S. or Canada, we recommend you check what specific cash rebates the Active Trader Program offers for you. We didn’t notice one for UK and EU markets.

With their Active Trader Program, we found FOREX.com a great choice if you trade in large volumes, which will apply to more experienced traders.

Deposits and withdrawals with FOREX.com

What is the minimum deposit at FOREX.com?

The minimum deposit to open an account with FOREX.com is $100 USD (or local equivalent: £100 in the UK, €100 in Europe). Two entities differ: StoneX Financial Pty Ltd in Australia requires A$150, while StoneX Financial Pte. Ltd. in Singapore sets its minimum at S$150, or S$250 when a debit or credit card is used.

Deposit Options and Fees

Funding methods vary by region. Bank wire or transfer and Visa debit are accepted across all entities. Skrill and Neteller are available at both the European (CySEC) entity and the Global (CIMA) division, while PayPal is listed only by the European entity. In the US, credit cards are not accepted, debit cards are. The Singapore entity accepts PayNow, FAST internet banking, and Bill Payment in addition to cards and wires, but does not accept e-wallets such as PayLah or GrabPay. The Global (CIMA) division accepts a broad set of local-currency online transfers across emerging market currencies including ARS, MYR, THB, VND, IDR, PHP, BRL, COP, CRC, CLP, MXN, PEN, and ZAR, in addition to cards, wire, Skrill, and Neteller.

In the US, the following funding methods are available:

In Canada the following funding options are possible:

In the UK the following funding methods are available:

Your account currency can be one of the following: United States Dollar (USD), Euro (EUR) and Great British Pound (GBP).

In Europe you can choose from the following funding methods and account base currency options:

Withdrawal Options and Fees

The table below lists the funding methods of the Global division, GAIN Global Markets Inc. (CIMA), for clients outside the UK, Europe, Canada, the US, Australia and Singapore. Australian clients of StoneX Financial Pty Ltd fund through BPAY, PayID, EFT, and credit and debit cards, with no Skrill or Neteller, no cash, and no third-party transfers.

Ease To Open An Account

We opened an account with FOREX.com in the U.S. to test out the Account Opening experience for ourselves.

We’ve listed the process, step-by-step below:

Step 1: Select a platform

To begin, you must select a trading platform. US clients can choose FOREX.com’s proprietary software, MetaTrader 4, or MetaTrader 5 (RAW Pricing runs on the FOREX.com platform, TradingView or MT5, so MT5 is a choice rather than a requirement).

Step 2: Select a Product

Next, you must choose what account (FOREX.com call it a product, but it is an account) you’d like. For U.S. clients, you can choose either the Spread-Only or Raw Pricing account.

Step 3: Account Information

Then comes the account information, which includes basic personal details as well as your home address.

Step 4: Home Address

In addition to your home address, you’ll have to provide your identification and citizenship details. If you are a U.S. citizen, you’ll need to provide your social security number. Otherwise, if you are not a U.S. citizen, you’ll have to provide your ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number).

Step 5: Financial Details

Next, FOREX.com asks you for your basic financial details, which aren’t too intrusive. Key information required includes your annual income, employment status and trading experience.

Step 6: Verify Personal Information

After that, you’ll have to verify your personal information. This is simply to go over the information you’ve provided and ensure it is all accurate.

Step 7: Review Agreements

Once you ensure all your personal information is accurate, you’ll have to review FOREX.com’s customer agreement, which includes agreeing to IRS Tax requirements.

Step 8: Processing Your Application

FOREX.com will then briefly process your application.

Step 9: Account Verification

Once your application is processed, you’ll have to upload 3 documents to properly verify your account.

Step 10: Upload Documents

These 3 documents include a proof of identity, proof of address and proof of social security number. You’ll have to make sure each document meets the specific requirements that FOREX.com stipulate.

These three documents can be uploaded via your MyAccount portal using the username and password you created on the application. You cannot fund your account until this is provided.

FOREX.com trading platforms and app

FOREX.com offers 5 main trading platforms, meaning they have one of the best brokers for choice of Trading Platforms.

• FOREX.com: the broker’s proprietary software (available in all countries)
• MetaTrader 4: popular forex trading platform (not available in the EU)
• MetaTrader 5: upgraded version of MT4. Not available in the UK, Australia, or Singapore.
• TradingView: top charting platform
• NinjaTrader: For futures trading (only available in the US and with a FOREX.com account)

What platform you choose will depend on your market preference and what additional trading tools you like to use (for charting/algorithmic etc.).

FOREX.com Trading Platform

FOREX.com’s proprietary platform is offered on desktop, as a WebTrader and via mobile app. In our opinion, the broker’s mobile app is one of the Best Forex Trading Apps as it is easy to use, with a fluid user interface and simple design. Highlights include powerful charts from TradingView with over 80 indicators, complex order types and an economic calendar.

FOREX.com’s desktop platform, meanwhile, is designed for experienced traders with sophisticated trading features such as 100 pre-defined charting indicators and a fully customizable dashboard.

The platform also comes with a guaranteed stop-loss provided you are not trading with the US or Canadian FOREX.com subsidiaries.

We, tested the broker’s WebTrader platform with our results reported below.

As you can see from the FOREX.com WorkSpace below, the WebTrader has a simple layout that is fairly easy to navigate. Your total balance and margin are displayed at the top of the window, with a 1-click trading toggle you can switch on and off. We particularly liked the ease at which you can browse through markets and place a trade.

There is also an economic news tab at the bottom right corner which has live market updates while you trade. We found this useful to gain market insights on the fly.

FOREX.com’s WebTrader also grants you access to Trading Central, which can be directly integrated into the platform, for more technical market analysis. From the window below, we have a tab for Trading Central as well as an economic calendar, which shows a list of bank holidays. We found this both useful and easy to have a quick glance at more technical market insights before switching back to trading.

While trading, you can maximise your window to just focus on one market. When we were trading AUD/USD, we found it simple to navigate market details such as margin and minimum spread (on the left-hand side). We also liked having the ability to customise our dashboard with news and an economic calendar on the right.

Making a trade is simply a matter of pointing and clicking, green to buy, red to sell. As mentioned earlier, you can toggle on 1-click trading, which will automatically buy or sell the desired market once you click. We prefer to leave this off, as you can set an associated stop or limit order in the trade ticket. There are also other useful details such as price tolerance and margin requirements which we found was a nice touch.

MetaTrader 4

FOREX.com also offers the MetaTrader 4 platform which is still one of the most popular forex platforms on the market. As a platform, it still ticks all of the boxes, without lashing out on features or trading tools.

Key features we like include the 30 technical indicators and 24 analytical objects available to analyse the markets. Additionally, the platform is robust and simple to use, hence its longevity (and popularity).

Overall, however, we think FOREX.com’s proprietary platform outshines it in nearly every way, from usability to features. Nowadays, MT4 is starting to look a little primitive compared to more advanced platforms like MT5.

MetaTrader 5

Available in the US, Canada, Europe, and via the Global division, FOREX.com also offers MT4’s upgrade, MetaTrader 5. MT5 is not available to clients of the UK, Australian, or Singaporean entities. As is well documented, MT5 updated virtually every aspect of MT4 to deliver a superior platform performance in every way. We tend to agree.

Key highlights of MT5 include more indicators (44 technical indicators and 38 analytical objects), more order types (6 vs 4) and the ability to trade on centralised exchanges. The latter point means you can trade more products, including shares, as MT4 only allows trading on decentralised exchanges.

Overall, if MT5 is available to you, we think it stands up to the best platforms in the market.

TradingView

As a FOREX.com client, you have the benefit of TradingView charts integrated into the platform. TradingView is a powerful charting platform that gives you access to useful trading tools for further technical analysis of the markets.

Having TradingView charts powering FOREX.com’s platform not only means you get access to more charting tools, it’s also easy-to-use, adding to a smooth trading experience.

FOREX.com app

Social and copy trading

FOREX.com does not offer a broker-operated copy trading or social trading network at any of its regulated entities. There is no ZuluTrade, DupliTrade, or in-house mirror trading service. TradingView ideas and charts, available where TradingView is offered, provide social-style content and community ideas but do not allow you to automatically copy another trader’s positions.

Where MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5 is available, the built-in MetaTrader Signals marketplace is accessible, but this is a MetaQuotes product, not a FOREX.com service. There is no copy trading available to US clients.

Markets you can trade with FOREX.com

Before tackling the products FOREX.com offers, we think it important to emphasise that the brokers offerings do differ between regions. In the US, as we’ve mentioned a few times, you can only trade using spot products, all other countries have CFDs products.

CFDs

In the US, GAIN Capital Group LLC offers forex only, with no CFDs for retail clients, and the CFD count differs by entity elsewhere: GAIN Global Markets Inc. lists 6,300+ share CFDs, StoneX Financial Pty Ltd in Australia lists 6,300+ CFD markets, and StoneX Financial Pte. Ltd. in Singapore lists 6,000+ global equities.

Pair counts vary by entity, with 84 pairs at StoneX Financial Ltd, StoneX Financial Pte. Ltd. and StoneX Europe Ltd, 80 at GAIN Capital Group LLC, and 80+ at GAIN Global Markets Inc., StoneX Financial Pty Ltd and FOREX.com Canada. The broker’s forex range remains its strong suit. Most brokers only offer 40 to 65 pairs so FOREX.com does have one of the larger ranges of pairs we have covered

The products available outside the US differ by entity: FOREX.com Canada lists over 2,700 markets, StoneX Financial Ltd in the UK lists 84 currencies, 220+ shares, 17 equity indices, 10 metals and 11 commodities, and StoneX Europe Ltd lists 6,000+ shares and 21 global indices. This range includes Shares, Indices, commodities, Best Brokers for Gold CFD Trading and if you are in Canada ETFs. Crypto CFDs are not available to UK retail clients (FCA retail crypto-CFD ban) or to US retail clients (US regulations prohibit retail crypto CFDs). StoneX Financial Pte. Ltd. lists crypto CFDs, including Bitcoin, Ether, Ripple, and Litecoin, at 2:1 on a 50% margin, and its Singapore page puts these products outside the scope of MAS, leaving investors who deal in them with no legislative protection. FOREX.com Canada has no crypto CFDs. Crypto is offered in Australia (retail leverage 2:1), Europe (retail leverage 2:1), and via the Global division at higher leverage tiers (BTC 100:1, ETH 100:1, XRP 100:1 at base tiers).

Overall, while we think the amount of forex products (and shares) is impressive, there are definitely brokers out there with better product ranges.

The products and services available to you at FOREX.com will depend on your location, and on which of its regulated entities holds your account.

Leverage

Maximum retail leverage at FOREX.com varies significantly by jurisdiction, because each regulator sets its own retail caps. FOREX.com expresses leverage as margin requirements (MMR), where a 1% MMR equals 100:1 leverage and a 5% MMR equals 20:1.

Retail FX leverage caps by entity:

• Australia (ASIC): 30:1 majors, 20:1 indices, 10:1 commodities (20:1 on gold), 2:1 crypto, 5:1 shares.
• United Kingdom (FCA): 30:1 majors, 20:1 indices, 10:1 commodities (20:1 on gold), 5:1 shares. Crypto CFDs not available.
• United States (CFTC/NFA): 50:1 majors. Only FX and futures are available to US retail clients (no CFDs on indices, commodities, shares, or crypto).
• Canada (CIRO): 50:1 on USD/CAD at a 2% margin, 20:1 on EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY and AUD/USD at 5% in CAD-based accounts (about 33:1 at 3% in USD-based accounts), 10:1 on the US SP 500, US Tech 100 and Wall Street at 10%, about 6.7:1 on other indices at 15%, and about 3.3:1 on stock CFDs at a 30% margin. The Canadian dealer is GAIN Capital - FOREX.com Canada Ltd., a CIRO and CIPF member, and our FOREX.com Review for Canadian Traders covers it.
• Singapore (MAS): 20:1 majors. Lower caps apply to other asset classes.
• Europe and EEA (CySEC): 30:1 majors, 20:1 indices, 10:1 commodities (20:1 on gold), 2:1 crypto, 5:1 shares.
• Global division (CIMA, Cayman Islands): elevated leverage. Up to 200:1 on major FX pairs, up to 200:1 on major indices (400:1 on the Germany 40 Tages product), up to 100:1 on commodities, 200:1 on gold, with crypto and shares tiered by position size (BTC 100:1 base, XRP 100:1 base, ETH 100:1 base).

Professional clients in Australia, the UK, and Europe can apply for waivers from these retail caps. FOREX.com uses step margin, meaning the margin requirement increases at higher position sizes. Step margin does not apply on MT4 or MT5 accounts. Step margin is a useful risk control, but trading at high leverage still carries significant risk of loss. Learn more about high leverage forex brokers and their approaches to margin and risk management.

FOREX.com customer service, research and education

FOREX.com offers a decent coverage of customer support, from email, to phone to a chat bot. You can contact the support staff 24 hours a day via the chat bot, although you have to go through a few prompts before being transferred to a real person. We found the support staff knowledgeable and helpful, with relatively quick response times.

While support is available 24 hours a day, this is only between 3pm on Sunday (GMT) and 10pm Friday (GMT). As such, you won’t be able to speak with anyone on Saturday. While this is a slight downside, it’s wider coverage than a lot of brokers offer.

When emailing, we found most queries were addressed within 24 hours which is fairly standard. If your query is fairly typical, there is also a FAQ section to cover most major topics.

Lastly, for those that don’t speak English, support is also available in Spanish, Portuguese, German, Chinese, Arabic, Polish, Russian, Hindi and Japanese.

Research and education

FOREX.com offers solid educational online resources, suited for beginners and experienced traders alike. This is separated out into education (courses, lessons and tutorials), news and analysis and webinars.

We particularly liked the courses that are split into beginner, intermediate and advanced for all levels of trader. There are also platform tutorials, which is particularly useful for newbies or even those wanting a good overview of FOREX.com’s trading platforms.

The lessons section includes almost a hundred written articles which, like the courses, are organized by experience level, from beginner to intermediate, and advanced users. I found these to be highly insightful and useful for general market analysis.

For more current market analysis, there are a range of research articles and trade ideas from the research team.

Lastly, there are a series of webinars, both old and new that you can register for. Each of these also specify how much trading experience is recommended for the webinar.

Our final verdict on FOREX.com

Overall, we think FOREX.com is a solid forex broker, offering an excellent proprietary platform, a wide range of forex products and rebates for high volume trading.

Most clients with FOREX.com will be directed to their Spread-Only account which offers good spreads, just make sure you choose the right trading platform for your needs.

And FOREX.com is one of the few brokers to offer commission based trading in the US and Canada through its RAW Pricing account. This account can result in some good savings given spreads are far lower than with a Spread-Only account. Unfortunately, there is no RAW Pricing account in the UK.

Last we should note that if you are outside the UK and EU, further savings are available with their Active Trader rebate program.

We thought the FOREX.com product range was solid. We especially liked their range of 84 forex pairs to trade. This is far above the industry average for forex brokers, who offer between 40-60 pairs.

Platform-wise, we found trading with FOREX.com’s platform to be smooth and user-friendly, with excellent charting tools. FOREX.com’s additional platform, TradingView, is a nice add-on to enhance your trading experience.

We also found opening an account with FOREX.com a smooth process and approved relatively quickly.

Lastly, FOREX.com is a trusted broker, regulated in multiple jurisdictions, which is a big tick for us. This proves the broker is committed to a safe trading environment for everyone.
