Can I open a Fusion Markets account from my country?

Is it legal for me to trade with this broker?

Two things decide whether you can trade: the broker must accept your country, and your own country's law must allow you to trade with a foreign broker. A broker accepting you does not make it legal where you live, so check both.

Your country

Ontario (Canada) is also excluded.

Is Fusion Markets safe? It depends on where you live

What does a regulator actually do?

A regulator licenses brokers and supervises how they treat clients. Top-tier regulators such as the FCA (UK), ASIC (Australia) and CySEC (EU) set strict rules on client money, leverage and complaints; offshore regulators set lighter ones. Most brokers run several companies, and the one named in your client agreement decides which rules protect you. Negative balance protection means you cannot lose more than the money in your account.

Fusion Markets uses different companies for different clients, and the one you join decides your regulator. Pick your region:

Company: Fusion Markets International
Regulator: FSA (Seychelles)
Licence: Securities Dealer SD096
Leverage: Up to 1:500 on forex and metals

Client money in segregated trust accounts at National Australia Bank
Negative balance protection, except in Mongolia, Türkiye, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Vietnam and China

Fusion's pages name no compensation scheme. Founded in November 2017 and trading since June 2019, Fusion says it is 50% owned by an institutional FX broker. Check the company named in your client agreement.

How to open a Fusion Markets account

What is KYC verification?

Before you can trade or withdraw, a broker must check who you are. This is called KYC, short for "know your customer". You usually upload a photo ID and a recent bill or bank statement showing your address. Practise on a demo account with virtual money before you deposit real money.

RegisterCreate an account and fill in the registration form.
VerifyGovernment photo ID plus proof of address from the last 6 months (no PO box), or photo ID plus a second ID, and a short risk quiz. Approval from 3 minutes; 90% within the hour.
FundAny amount; Fusion says most clients start with $1,500 or more. Only payments in your own name.
TradeIn the Client Hub choose Live › New Account: account type, platform and base currency. Logins arrive by email.

Two-factor authentication becomes mandatory after your first deposit and is needed for every withdrawal. Demo accounts run 30 days and are extended free once a live account is funded.

Fusion Markets fees: what one trade costs

What are spreads and pips?

The spread is the gap between the buy and sell price, and it is the main cost on accounts without commission. A pip is the fourth decimal on most currency pairs (0.0001); on one standard lot of EUR/USD, 1 pip is worth about $10. Raw and ECN accounts have tighter spreads but add a fixed commission per lot, so always compare the total cost.

Zero charges $2.25 per lot per side on raw spreads; Classic adds about 0.9 pips to the spread and charges no commission. Slide to your size for EUR/USD.

EUR/USD trade size 1.00 lot

Classic · about 0.92 pips$9.20

Zero · 0.01 pips avg + $4.50 round turn$4.60

Uses Fusion's average EUR/USD spread (1–5 June 2026), Classic's roughly 0.9-pip mark-up, $10 per pip per standard lot and Zero's $4.50 round-turn commission. Live spreads float. Swaps are extra on positions held overnight.

Cost	What Fusion Markets charges
Commission	Zero: $2.25 per lot per side on MetaTrader; cTrader $2.25 per $100,000 per side. Classic: none. Index and crypto CFDs: $0.
Deposits and withdrawals	No Fusion fee. Banks in the middle of an international wire may take $20–$30.
Small-trading charge	Merchant fees may be passed on if you deposit and withdraw without significant trading.
Inactivity	Up to $10 a year after 12 months, under the FSA client agreement. Empty accounts are archived after 90 days.
Swap-free	An admin fee per lot every 7 days instead of swaps (see below).

One standard lot (100,000 units) opened and closed, using each broker's cheapest published EUR/USD pricing: spread × $10 plus the round-turn commission. "From" spreads are best-case, so live costs at those brokers are usually higher than shown; "average" and "typical" are the brokers' own published averages. Swaps are not included.

Fusion Markets swaps and the Islamic account

What is a swap fee?

A swap is interest you pay or earn when you keep a trade open past the daily rollover, because a currency trade borrows one currency to buy another. Many brokers charge three days on Wednesday to cover the weekend. An Islamic or swap-free account removes this interest, sometimes with a fixed admin fee instead.

Overnight financing	Charged at 00:00 server time (17:00 New York), including on crypto CFDs.
Swap-free account	MT4 and MT5 only, EUR/USD from 1.4 pips, no commission, over 50 instruments. Apply through support.
Admin fee (per lot, per 7 days)	EUR/USD $50 · GBP/USD $20 · USD/JPY $150 · AUD/USD $30 · USD/CHF $100 · gold $200 · US30 $50
Rules	You cannot mix swap-free and swap-charged accounts, and Fusion may convert an account it believes is abusing swap-free status.

Fusion Markets account types

What is a lot, and what is a cent account?

A standard lot is 100,000 units of currency, a mini lot 10,000 and a micro lot 1,000. A cent account shows your balance in cents, so you can trade very small sizes while you learn. Standard accounts usually cost more in spread; raw accounts cost less in spread but charge commission.

Fusion Markets leverage falls as equity grows

How do leverage, margin call and stop out work?

Leverage lets you open a bigger position with less money: at 1:100, $100 controls $10,000. It multiplies losses exactly as much as profits. Margin is the money held to keep a trade open; at the margin call level you are warned, and at the stop out level the broker starts closing your trades. Most beginners are safer with low leverage.

Fusion Markets trading platforms

MT4, MT5 or cTrader: what is the difference?

MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and MetaTrader 5 (MT5) are the most widely used trading platforms; MT5 is newer, with more markets and tools. cTrader and TradingView are popular for their charts. Expert advisors (EAs) are programs that trade automatically on MetaTrader.

MT4

Windows, Mac, mobile and WebTrader. Zero or Classic.

MT5

21 timeframes, 80+ analysis objects, depth of market and MQL5.

cTrader

Zero account only: 26 timeframes, 80+ indicators, cAlgo and up to 2,000 positions.

TradingView

Zero account via cTrader; Pine Script instead of EAs. Forex, metals, indices, energy and softs.

Server in New York; server time GMT+2 (GMT+3 in summer).

What is a CFD?

Most of what brokers offer are CFDs (contracts for difference): you trade the price of gold, an index, a share or a coin without owning it. Spreads differ from market to market and usually widen around big news and when markets open.

Market	Min / average spread	Commission
ForexEUR/USD	0.00 / 0.01	Zero: $2.25 a side
ForexUSD/JPY	0.00 / 0.04	Zero: $2.25 a side

Fusion Markets execution, scalping and expert advisors

What is slippage?

Market execution fills your order at the best price available, which can be slightly different from the price you clicked; that difference is called slippage. Scalping means holding trades for seconds or minutes. A VPS is a remote computer that keeps your platform and EAs running when your own computer is off.

Model	Market execution with no dealing desk.
Speed	Fusion's FAQ gives an average of 37 ms, a figure dated August 2023. We have not tested it.
Styles allowed	Scalping, hedging and expert advisors. Latency and swap arbitrage are prohibited.
Limits	100 lots per order and 200 orders including pending (cTrader 2,000 positions).
Free VPS	When you trade more than 20 lots of forex or metals in 30 days; otherwise a 25% discount.

Fusion Markets copy trading

Is copy trading safe for beginners?

Copy trading automatically copies another trader's positions into your account. Their past results do not guarantee future ones, and you pay them through a profit share or a wider spread. Start with a small amount and keep a stop loss.

Fusion+	Free when master and follower each trade 2.5+ lots of forex or metals in 30 days, otherwise $10 a month. Performance fee up to 30%. Fusion clients only; not on cTrader; no demo.
DupliTrade	Third-party copy service for MT4 accounts.
MAM / PAMM	$5,000 per follower account, three funded followers and a 3-month track record.

Fusion Markets deposits and withdrawals

Why does my money go back to the same card or wallet?

To stop money laundering, brokers usually send withdrawals back to the card, bank or wallet you deposited from, and only to an account in your own name. You must be verified to withdraw, and your bank or payment provider can add its own time and fees.

DepositCards, PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, crypto and many local methods are instant; wires 1–5 business days.
Request24/7, to accounts in your own name; confirmed with 2FA.
Processed85% in under an hour; up to one business day if compliance checks are needed.

E-wallets and crypto arrive instantly once processed; local bank transfers 1–2 business days; wires 3–5 (minimum $35). PayPal is not available in some countries, including India, Indonesia and Nigeria.

Fusion Markets bonuses and promotions

Can I withdraw a deposit bonus?

A deposit bonus is usually trading credit, not cash. It adds margin to your account, but you cannot withdraw it, only the profits you make, and often only after trading a set volume. Read the terms before you accept one.

Fusion Markets offers no deposit bonus. Refer a Friend pays up to $500 per referral, split between you and your friend, or up to 15% lower commission; the invitation-only Premium Program pays rebates from 15.11%. Example: a friend deposits $500 and you each get $50; at $5,000 you each get $250, paid within 24 hours of meeting the trading requirement.

Our verdict on Fusion Markets

Fusion Markets is a low-cost choice for active traders: $4.50 a round turn on the Zero account, no minimum deposit, no Fusion payment fees, fast 24/7 withdrawals and all four major platforms. It is less suited to traders who want top-tier protection outside Australia, since international clients join the Seychelles or Vanuatu company, or to anyone needing an affordable swap-free account. Indian residents should note Fusion's place on the RBI Alert List.
