About this comparison

Compare up to six forex brokers side by side: fees, minimum deposits, leverage, platforms, regulation and customer support. Every figure comes from our own broker reviews, and each review shows when it was last updated.

How to read the table

Scores out of 5

Each section's score sums up that part of our review. The overall verdict is the broker's score in its full review.

Best

Marks the strongest value in a row among the brokers you selected, where the figures can be compared directly.

A dash

The broker doesn't publish that figure, or we haven't verified it yet. Rows where none of your brokers has a figure are left out.

Frequently asked questions

How many brokers can I compare at once?

Up to six. Add brokers with the search box above the table, or with “Add to compare list” on any broker card.

Where does the data come from?

From our reviews of each broker, which we update when brokers change their conditions. The date of the last update is on each review.

Which broker is the cheapest?

It depends on what you trade and how often. Compare the EUR/USD spread and the commission together, and check the non-trading fees (withdrawal and inactivity) in the table.

Can I share a comparison?

Yes. The page address keeps the brokers you selected, so you can use “Copy link to this comparison” or bookmark it.

Which brokers are shown at first?

The table opens with three popular brokers so you can see how it works. Remove them and add the ones you are considering.
