Inveslo vs OANDA

Inveslo has no licence we could confirm on a regulator's register. OANDA is licensed by CFTC / NFA in the United States, FCA in the United Kingdom, KNF in the European Union, CIRO in Canada, ASIC in Australia, MAS in Singapore and JFSA in Japan, 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 $30 at Inveslo and $0 at OANDA. Only OANDA offers negative balance protection and segregated client money.

Our notes

Strengths
  • Low published minimum deposit ($30 on the Standard STP account)

Watch out for
  • 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
  • inveslo.com did not load for us on 2026-10-20; this profile uses archived copies of its own pages from September and October 2026
  • Clients outside the countries with a local OANDA company may be placed with OANDA Global Markets Ltd, which holds only an offshore licence from the BVI FSC
  • UK inactivity fee after 12 months without trading, up to £20 a month
  • The NFA's BASIC record for OANDA Corporation lists past NFA and CFTC regulatory actions; read them there before you open a US account

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:

  • 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.
  • OANDA: CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 76.6% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

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.
