Account Registration Process

Opening a trading account with us involves a simple online registration and verification routine. Start by visiting our official website and clicking “Open Account” at the top right corner. Choose an account type according to your capital and trading preferences. You will be required to submit identification and proof of residence documents for verification.

Document Verification Steps

Upload a valid Kenyan national ID or passport as identification. Provide a utility bill or bank statement dated within the last three months showing your Kenyan residential address. The verification process typically completes within 24 hours during working days. You must also fill out a questionnaire about your trading experience and financial background to comply with regulatory standards and receive tailored risk disclosures.

Account Configuration Options

Decide between registering as an individual or a corporate entity. Corporate accounts require business registration documents and director IDs. Select your preferred base currency; KES is recommended for Kenyan traders to avoid conversion fees. Adjust leverage settings up to 1:400 on major forex pairs, with lower limits for cryptocurrencies and exotic pairs. Leverage is dynamically adjusted based on account equity to preserve risk management.
