Verification sequence

A register result is the start of the check

1

Identify the legal entity

Search the company name and licence number, not only the broker brand.

2

Match the official domain

Use the website and contact details published by the authority to catch clone firms.

3

Confirm status and permission

Active registration does not prove the entity may offer every promoted product in your country.

4

Check warnings and history

Review warning lists, disciplinary records, restrictions, and complaint routes before funding.
