Regulation and client protection
FXDD's Malta entity operates under MFSA oversight in line with the EU's Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID). A second entity is registered in Mauritius with the Financial Services Commission (FSC). Client protections include segregated accounts, participation in investor compensation funds, and negative balance protection.
Leverage
Maximum leverage depends on the instrument: up to 1:30 on major forex pairs, 1:20 on minor pairs and indices, 1:10 on commodities, and 1:5 on stocks. Clients who qualify as professional traders can apply for leverage up to 1:100.
Account types
FXDD offers two account types on MT4 and MT5. The Standard account charges no commission but has wider spreads. The ECN account offers raw spreads with a per-trade commission of $0.0299 to $0.0499 per 1,000 units, depending on the instrument. Both require a $100 minimum deposit.
Trading platforms
Alongside MT4 and MT5, FXDD offers its own web-based FXDD WebTrader, aimed at ECN clients who want browser access without installing software.
Payment methods
FXDD accepts credit and debit cards, UnionPay, Neteller, and Skrill for deposits and withdrawals, with no additional fees charged by the broker on either.

Trading conditions
FXDD has been in the retail currency market since 2002 and operates a Malta entity under MFSA authorisation alongside a Mauritius company.
The Malta entity carries MiFID passporting into the European Economic Area, and with it the full ESMA package: 30:1 on major currency pairs, 20:1 on non-majors, gold and major indices, 5:1 on individual equities, negative balance protection and margin close-out at 50%. Eligible clients are covered by Malta's Investor Compensation Scheme.
The Mauritius entity applies neither cap nor compensation, and offers considerably higher leverage.
Verification
Verification requires photo ID and proof of address plus an appropriateness assessment where the account sits under the MFSA entity. Documents are usually reviewed within one to two business days.
Confirm which company your client agreement names. A group operating an EU entity alongside an offshore one routes clients by residence, and the protections do not follow the brand.
