FxPro login and account opening in South Africa
FxPro Direct is the account area where your trading accounts are managed. A single sign-in, using email and password, covers every trading account you hold, whatever platform you trade on, and the steps match in a browser and in the FxPro app. Below are the sign-in route, the registration form, the documents verification asks for and the way to pick and fund an account.
What your FxPro login opens
Your login takes you into FxPro Direct, the client portal. Signing up, sending documents, selecting an account and adding funds all happen there, without visiting a branch or sending papers by post. Any browser opens the sign-in form, and the FxPro app for iOS and Android carries the same portal on a phone.
Signing in step by step
Start at FxPro Direct and fill in the sign-in form. Your registered email address goes in first, then your password. Should two-factor authentication be switched on, a code step follows the password.
- In the app, a one-time code can stand in for the password, according to FxPro.
- A forgotten password is reset through the “Forgot password” link; the message goes only to the address used at registration.
- Platform passwords are handled separately, once you are inside the portal.
Matching the login to the platform
Portal details belong to FxPro Direct, while a trading account number and its own password belong to the platform. Sending each key to the right door clears most refused sign-ins.
- FxPro Direct portal and app: registered email and password, or a one-time code in the app.
- MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5: the trading account number, that account’s password and the exact server issued with it.
- cTrader: a cTrader ID, created when a cTrader account is added.
- FxPro Edge: reached from FxPro Direct without a separate login.
Registering and confirming your details
Registration is a short form in FxPro Direct: your email address and a few personal details create the portal profile. Trading accounts are attached to that profile afterwards, so the registration itself is done once. Creating the profile is free; the $100 minimum belongs to the first deposit, whenever you choose to send it.
Verification asks for two documents, both uploaded inside the portal. One is an identity document, for instance a passport or a national ID card. The other is address evidence, for example a utility bill or a bank statement. You photograph or scan them, and the originals stay with you.
Choosing an account and funding it
Standard runs MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5 and FxPro Edge, with spreads from 1.2 pips and $0 commission. Raw+ runs MetaTrader 5, with spreads starting at 0.0 pips and a commission of $3.50 per lot per side. The commission is taken when a position opens and again when it closes, so a round trip on a standard lot totals $7.00.
The first deposit starts from $100, using card, bank wire, PayPal, Skrill or Neteller. Your deposit reaches the FxPro Wallet before it is transferred to the trading account. The demo, which runs on virtual funds, is reached through the same portal.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need another FxPro login for a second trading account?
No. A single FxPro Direct profile can hold more than one trading account, according to FxPro, and the same sign-in covers them all.
Can I send verification papers by post?
No. Documents are photographed or scanned inside FxPro Direct, and the originals stay with you.
Where does my deposit go before trading?
It arrives in your FxPro Wallet first and moves to the trading account from there.
