Head to head
DeltaFX vs IFC Markets
DeltaFX has no licence we could confirm on a regulator's register. IFC Markets is licensed by Labuan FSA in Labuan, Malaysia, and also has an offshore registration. The licence that applies to you depends on where you live, so check which company you would contract with before comparing anything else.
Minimum deposits start at $50 at DeltaFX and $15 at IFC Markets (the Classic Standard (fixed spread) account needs $1,000). Only IFC Markets offers negative balance protection. Neither offers segregated client money.
Facts last checked: DeltaFX on 20 October 2026, IFC Markets on 20 October 2026.

Our notes
- Five account types with published margin call and stop-out levels
- Swap-free versions of every account
- Low minimum deposit ($50) on most accounts
- Fixed 1.8-pip EUR/USD spread on Classic accounts, so costs are known in advance
- Micro and Nano accounts from $15
- Choice of NetTradeX, MT4 and MT5, with hedging or netting on MT5 and NetTradeX
- Not listed as regulated here: its Anjouan (AOFA) licence L16182/DFX shows as active on AOFA's own register, but the Central Bank of the Comoros has said AOFA is not recognised and cannot issue financial licences.
- Its only licence is from the Anjouan Offshore Finance Authority (AOFA). On 8 December 2025 the Central Bank of the Comoros said AOFA is not recognised in the Union of the Comoros and has no legal power to issue financial licences.
- AOFA's verification page lists company number 16183 (DeltaFX's site says 16182), incorporation on 20 October 2025 and a licence end date of 20 October 2026.
- Commission rates on the commission-based accounts are not published on the account pages
- Leverage up to 1:1000 and no published negative balance protection
- Licensed only in the BVI (offshore) and Labuan; no FCA, ASIC, CySEC or similar licence
- Stop-out level of only 10%, so positions are closed late and losses can run far
- Monthly inactivity fee of up to $10 after 12 months without trading
- Standard accounts need a $1,000 first deposit

Risk warnings
The buttons to a broker’s website above the table are partner links: we may earn a commission if you open an account through them. That never changes the facts shown here. Trading leveraged products such as forex and CFDs carries a high risk of losing money rapidly, and most retail accounts lose money. Each broker’s own warning:
- IFC Markets: Your capital is at risk. Leveraged products may not be suitable for everyone.

Cost per lot is the typical EUR/USD spread in busy hours × $10, plus any round-turn commission, for one standard lot. “Not yet checked” means we have not confirmed that fact yet. This page compares facts; it does not rank the brokers or recommend either. Confirm costs and licences on each broker’s site and the regulator’s public register before opening an account: see how we review brokers and check a broker yourself.
