FxPro login and account opening in South Africa
FxPro Direct is the account area used for signing in, registering and handling trading accounts. This guide covers the login steps, the documents needed for verification and the account-opening process in South Africa.
How the portal sign-in works
Open FxPro Direct in any browser or use the FxPro app on iOS and Android. Enter the email address used at registration, then your password. In the app, a one-time code can replace the password, according to FxPro. If two-factor authentication is switched on, a code step follows the password.
- Use the email registered with FxPro for the portal.
- If the password is lost, “Forgot password” sends a reset to that registered email.
- Platform passwords are separate and are handled inside the portal.
Credentials for each platform
Signing in through the portal takes you to FxPro Direct, while a trading platform asks for different credentials. Matching the door to the key prevents most refused sign-ins. FxPro Edge has no separate login and opens from FxPro Direct.
- FxPro Direct: registered email and password; the app can use a one-time code.
- MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5: trading account number, platform password and server name.
- cTrader: cTrader ID, created when the cTrader account is added.
- FxPro Edge: opens from FxPro Direct.
Opening an account from registration
Registration begins in FxPro Direct with an email address and a short sign-up form. That profile is the only registration needed; trading accounts are added beneath it later. Verification, account selection and funding all take place in the portal, without a branch visit.
- Standard: MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5 and FxPro Edge; spread starts at 1.2 pips; commission $0.
- Raw+: MetaTrader 5 and cTrader; spread starts at 0.0 pips; $3.50 per lot per side.
Identity and address checks
The portal asks for identity evidence and address evidence, both uploaded inside FxPro Direct, according to FxPro. Identity evidence can be a passport or a national ID card. Address evidence can be a utility bill or a bank statement. Photograph or scan the files; the originals remain with you.
Deposits, demo use and additional accounts
The first deposit minimum is $100, according to FxPro, and it can be made whenever you choose; registering costs nothing. Card, bank wire, PayPal, Skrill and Neteller are funding methods, and funds reach the FxPro Wallet before the trading account. A demo account uses virtual funds through the same portal. Additional trading accounts can be held under one FxPro Direct profile, according to FxPro, and a Raw+ and a Standard can share the FxPro Wallet.
