Our notes

Strengths
  • Group company Nebula Ventures Ltd is on the VFSC list of financial dealer licensees (active, licensed 10 July 2025)
  • Low entry point, with a $30 Zero account
  • Both MetaTrader 5 and cTrader are offered
  • FIBO Group, Ltd. is listed by the BVI FSC as a currently regulated investment business (dealing as agent and principal, arranging deals)
  • Wide choice of platforms and accounts, including cent accounts that open from 1 cent
  • Spreads from 0 pips on NDD accounts with commission charged as a percentage of trade value
Watch out for
  • The User Agreement is with Eplanet Brokers Ltd, a Comoros-registered company, not the Vanuatu licensee; the website does not say which clients the Vanuatu company serves
  • The website links to a Mwali (MISA) record for Eplanet Brokers Ltd but quotes no licence number; we could not open MISA's register on 2026-10-20 to check it.
  • The risk warning says you can lose more than your deposit, and we found no negative balance protection or client money segregation commitment
  • Deposits are listed by cryptocurrency only
  • The BVI licence is offshore and there is no compensation scheme
  • We found no negative balance protection or client money segregation commitment in the customer agreement; it lets FIBO cover a negative balance from your other accounts
  • Leverage up to 1:5000 on the MT5 Cent account
  • FIBO's former Cyprus company no longer appears on CySEC's list of investment firms; EU clients have no EU-licensed FIBO company

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:

  • ePlanet Brokers: Trading involves a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all traders or investors. You should carefully consider your trading goals or objectives, financial situations, level of experience and needs before entering into margin trading with eplanet brokers. There is a risk of losing substantially more than the investor’s initial investment. Hence, we advise you to only trade the products if you fully understand the risks involved, and can afford them.
  • FIBO Group: Forex trading involves significant risk, including the potential loss of all invested funds. It may not be suitable for everyone. Please assess your risk tolerance carefully.

Other head-to-head pages

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.
