Inveslo vs Orbex

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 $100 at Orbex. Only Orbex offers negative balance protection and segregated client money.

Our notes

Strengths
  • Low published minimum deposit ($30 on the Standard STP account)
  • Swap-free option on every account
  • Membership of the Financial Commission gives an outside route for complaints
  • Orbex Global Ltd is on the FSC Mauritius register as an investment dealer (SEC-2.1B), licensed since 7 January 2019
  • Says client money is held separately from company money and offers negative balance protection on all accounts
  • Commission-free Starter account from $100, and raw-spread accounts with a published per-lot commission
  • MetaTrader 4 and 5, a FIX API and PAMM accounts
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
  • Its CySEC licence (124/10, ORBEX Ltd) is shown on the CySEC register as under examination for voluntary renunciation, so new clients are not covered by EU rules or the Cyprus compensation fund, even though the website still mentions the ICF
  • The website names several operating companies (Orbex Global Ltd in Mauritius, Orbex Limited in Seychelles, an Orbex Limited registered in Saint Lucia and Orbex LLC in St Vincent); check which one is named in your agreement
  • Leverage up to 1:500, far above the 1:30 cap that applies in the UK and EU
  • The spreads it publishes are minimums ("as low as"); typical spreads are not published

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.
  • Orbex: Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. Before deciding to trade foreign exchange, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. There is a possibility that you may sustain a loss of some or all of your investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.

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.
