Watch out for look-alike sites

A clone firm copies a real broker’s name, licence number and branding to take deposits. The register shows the genuine firm, so the surest check is the contact details: if the website, email or phone number you were given is not the one on the register, treat it as a clone.

Leverage lets you open a position bigger than your deposit, so losses grow as fast as gains. The caps below are the most STB Provider allows; you can always use less. For comparison, strict regulators cap retail leverage at 1:30 on major pairs.

Overview
STB Provider is a forex and CFD broker founded in 2021. It offers 350+ instruments on MetaTrader 5, four live accounts, PAMM, copy trading, a prop-trading programme and a free academy. Its website is in English and Persian. It does not serve residents of the USA, Turkey, the UAE or Saint Lucia.
Regulation and safety
The company is STB Provider Ltd, registered at Rodney Bay, Gros Islet, Saint Lucia. Its site shows “Licence No. 2023-00478”. Its own legal page describes this as the company number under Saint Lucia’s International Business Companies Act, incorporated on 26 September 2023. That is a company registration, not a licence to offer trading, and it brings none of the protections a licence would.
STB also shows a registration with FinCEN, the US Treasury’s anti-money-laundering unit, as a money services business. That registration does not authorise anyone to offer leveraged trading. We found no STB company on the registers we searched (FSC Mauritius, FSA Seychelles and the UAE CMA), and STB cites no other licence, so we list no regulator. This describes what we could verify; it is not a judgement on how the company is run. Read our broker regulation guide and broker scams guide for what a real licence looks like.
Costs
Standard has no FX commission and spreads from 0.4 pips. ECN and Prime charge $6 a round lot on FX, Zero charges $10, and crypto and stock commissions are a percentage. Typical spreads are not published. See forex trading costs.
Platforms and tools
Trading is on MetaTrader 5 only, on desktop, web and mobile. STB publishes dynamic leverage tiers that cut leverage as position size grows. See MT4 vs MT5.

Who it may suit
The low minimums and published commissions are clear. Without a licence we could confirm, and with crypto-only funding, your money has little formal protection. Check the details on our check a broker page first.
