Watch out for
  • The international website is operated by FP Markets Ltd, a Saint Lucia company (registration 2025-00853) that holds no financial licence; check which company your client agreement names.

  • Says FP Markets (Pty) Ltd is an FSCA-authorised financial services provider (FSP 50926); we could not confirm it on the FSCA register on 2026-10-20 because the register could not be reached.
  • Says Inveslo Limited holds an FSC Mauritius Investment Dealer licence (GB25205645); we could not confirm it on the FSC register on 2026-10-20 because the register blocked our access.
  • Says Inveslo Trading Ltd holds an accreditation from Kazakhstan's financial market agency; we could not confirm it on a Kazakh register on 2026-10-20. Its Financial Commission membership is a private dispute scheme, not regulation.
  • Leverage up to 1:2000, and its risk warning says you can lose more than you 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:

  • FP Markets: Derivative products are highly leveraged, carry a high level of risk and may not be appropriate for all investors. The legal documents should be considered before entering into transactions with us.
  • Inveslo: Trading forex and other financial instruments involve a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors or traders. Traders must carefully consider their trading objectives, financial situation, risk appetite, and level of experience before stepping into margin trading with Inveslo. There a risk of losing more than the trader’s initial investment. The higher the leverage, the more the risk, which can go against you. Traders are advised to be aware of the associated risks.

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.
