IC Markets minimum deposit (2026)

These are IC Markets's own words from the pages linked on each line. Where IC Markets gives a different minimum for one account, it is part of the quoted line above.

IC Markets lists these accounts: Raw Spread (MetaTrader), Raw Spread (cTrader / TradingView), Standard, Swap Free; Raw Pro and Raw Pro+ in early access. Its minimum deposit wording names the conditions: "USD 200 (or currency equivalent; the help centre also says an account can be opened without any minimum)". The cheapest account to open is not always the cheapest to trade on: accounts with a raw spread usually charge a commission per lot, and commission-free accounts carry the cost in a wider spread. IC Markets's commission wording: "USD 3.50 per lot per side (Raw Spread on MetaTrader, USD 7.0 round turn; cTrader and TradingView USD 3 per USD 100k; Standard no commission)".

IC Markets lists these deposit methods: Bank/wire transfer, PayPal, Credit card, Skrill, Neteller, UnionPay, BPAY, FasaPay, POLi. What you see in your account area depends on your country and the IC Markets entity. Account currencies: AUD, USD, EUR, GBP, SGD, JPY, CHF, NZD, CAD, HKD. Funding in the same currency as your account avoids a conversion charge from your bank.

A minimum deposit opens the account; it does not make a small account safe. With leverage (IC Markets lists "up to 1:5000 (Raw Trading Ltd, IC Markets Global; lower on some instruments)"), a small balance can be closed out by a short move against you. IC Markets publishes that 73.46% 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.

Withdrawal fees: AUD 20 bank fee on bank-wire withdrawals; Neteller, Skrill and PayPal withdrawals free of charge. Withdrawal times reported by verified IC Markets traders appear on the IC Markets review once enough have reported.

Which IC Markets company opens your account depends on where you live. If you live in the EU, the UK, Australia, South Africa, Kenya, the UAE or Qatar, our link only goes to an IC Markets entity licensed for your country, and where there is none we show no link. We show no sign-up links at all in India and in other countries where promoting offshore brokers is not allowed. Check each licence on the regulator's register before you deposit.
