Opening a trading account
Is there a minimum deposit size? We recommend that you deposit a minimum of £100 or an amount which is enough to cover the margin requirement of your first trade.
How do I make my first deposit? Funding your account is secure, fast and free*. We accept credit or debit card, wire transfer or PayPal.
*Your issuer may charge you for credit card deposits
What do I need to verify my account? In the majority of cases we can verify your details electronically so you won't need to supply additional documentation. But if we can't confirm your identity electronically (for example, if you've moved house recently), we'll ask you to provide documentation via email.
