People search "eToro minimum deposit" because the number on adverts is rarely the whole story: it can depend on the account type, the payment method and the eToro company that serves your country. Here is what eToro's own pages say, quoted with the conditions, and what else you will pay when you fund and empty the account.

Minimum deposit by account type

eToro does not publish a separate minimum per account type on the pages we read, so the line above applies. Ask eToro directly if you plan a specific account.

How to fund an eToro account

eToro lists these deposit methods: Credit/debit card, Bank transfer, PayPal, Neteller, Skrill, Trustly, iDEAL, Przelewy24. What you see in your account area depends on your country and the eToro entity. Account currencies: Local accounts currently available: GBP, EUR, AUD and DKK (plus a USD account for all clients). Funding in the same currency as your account avoids a conversion charge from your bank.

Is the minimum enough to start trading?

A minimum deposit opens the account; it does not make a small account safe. With leverage (eToro lists "30:1 on major currency pairs (retail, EU/UK/AU rules)"), a small balance can be closed out by a short move against you. eToro publishes that 51% of its retail CFD accounts lose money. Practise on a demo account first and work out your risk per trade with the position size calculator.
