Our Verdict On FxPro

FxPro scores 30/100 and ranks 14 of 14. FxPro publishes no spread betting figure we can source. Judge it on the rest and check its prices on the platform.

How We Scored FxPro

Our overall score for FxPro is 30 out of 100. Below is the assessment behind it: FxPro marked on each of the criteria we score every account against, each one out of 10.

FxPro marked out of ten on each of the six criteria we score every account against, shown as a bar on each row.
CriterionFxPro
Trading Cost1 / 10Assessed
Trading Experience2 / 10Assessed
Trading Platform2 / 10Assessed
Trust5 / 10Assessed
Range Of Markets6 / 10Assessed
Customer Service2 / 10Assessed

The overall score shown above the table is the sum of these six marks, each out of 10, divided by 60 and multiplied by 100, rounded half up. No criterion is weighted, and this has been how every score on the site is computed since 24 September 2026.

Our scoring method for every review names the six criteria, what each one covers, and the published sources behind every mark.

What You Can Spread Bet On

FxPro’s own spread betting page names the asset classes its spread betting platform covers:

4 (forex, spot indices, spot metals, spot energy)

Shares are not on that list. This matters more than it might sound, because the figure you will meet first on FxPro’s own site is a total for its CFD range across every asset class it offers, and that total includes equities. It is a real figure, published by FxPro about itself, and we have read it and checked it. We do not publish it on this page, because it is not an answer to the question this page exists to answer.

FxPro publishes no total at all for its spread betting range.

Our sourcing methodology covers how we decide what a figure is in scope for. Our guide to spread betting markets covers what the asset classes above mean in practice, and our share spread betting guide covers the accounts that do carry equities.

Who You Contract With At FxPro

Spread bets at FxPro are placed with FxPro UK Limited (FRN 509956). This is the one row on our register table that sends you to the wrong regulator rather than the wrong company:

two regulators hold a record, and only one of them is the FCA. The UK firm is FxPro UK Limited under FRN 509956. FxPro Financial Services Ltd is a separate company on the CySEC register in Cyprus under licence 078/07. That Cypriot entry lists the fxpro.co.uk domain among its approved domains. Checking the UK web address against the Cypriot register therefore returns a firm that cannot take UK retail clients. Match the regulator as well as the name.

The Cypriot entry also carries a former company name, so a search on that name returns the same firm under different branding.

The Financial Ombudsman Service and the FSCS may be available to you, depending on eligibility. Our guide to FCA regulation of spread betting publishes the authorised entity and reference number for every provider we track, and lists the brands whose register entry does not return what you expect.

Is FxPro Regulated By The FCA?

FXPRO UK Limited is on the Financial Services Register under firm reference number 509956, and its status panel reads Authorised, since 10 Sep 2010. We read the entry on 3 Sep 2026, and the capture below is what the register showed that day.

The permissions panel is not in the capture, so this page makes no claim about which regulated activities the authorisation covers. Our regulation guide sets out checking a spread betting firm on the FCA register.

FxPro Trust, Ownership And Client Money Protection

Can You Trust FxPro?

FxPro's UK business is run by FXPRO UK Limited, a firm the FCA has held as Authorised since 2010. FxPro states that it deposits your money in segregated accounts at a UK credit institution, separated from its own money, and that negative balance protection means clients never lose more than their total deposits. (FCA register, read ; FxPro's own site, read ; FxPro's own site, read )

Who Owns FxPro?

Companies House lists one individual as a person with significant control of FXPRO UK Limited. (Companies House, read )

What Happens To Your Money If FxPro Fails?

FxPro states that it deposits your money in one or more segregated accounts at a credit institution in the UK, separated from FxPro's own money. FxPro states that FxPro UK Limited is a member of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, with eligibility depending on the status and nature of the claim. The FSCS's own figure is compensation of up to £85,000 per eligible person, per firm, for a firm that failed after 1 April 2019. (FxPro's own site, read ; FxPro's own site, read ; FSCS, read )

FxPro offers CFD trading alongside spread betting on its UK site, and for a fuller picture of how the two products differ, see our guide covering spread betting and CFD trading compared. (FxPro's own site, read )

FxPro Spread Betting Costs

FxPro offers UK spread betting through its own FxPro Edge platform. It publishes average spreads for its cTrader, Standard and Raw+ accounts, which are CFD accounts. It publishes no spread figure for FxPro Edge. A CFD figure never stands in for a spread betting one on this site, so we publish no spread figure for it.

The averages of the brokers that publish one are set out on the page explaining how we calculate our statistics.

Guaranteed Stops At FxPro

FxPro does not offer guaranteed stop-loss orders. An ordinary stop closes your trade at the next available price rather than at the price you set. A market that gaps overnight can therefore close you out below your stop, and the loss is yours.

Our stop-loss order guide for spread bettors covers how the order type behaves in a gapping market.

The Platforms You Can Use At FxPro

You spread bet at FxPro on its FxPro Edge platform or the FxPro App, and our app comparison for UK spread bettors lines up the ranked UK brokers on their published platform lists.

FxPro’s Trustpilot profile, captured 1 Oct 2026. We re-read these ratings every month, so the figure in the table is the one the platform displayed on that capture date.

On 1 Oct 2026, Trustpilot showed neither a TrustScore nor a star rating for FxPro, and the profile carried Trustpilot's own notice that the rating is unavailable because of a breach of its guidelines, and the screenshot above shows the notice as it appeared. A withheld score is not a score of zero and not a low rating, and it means Trustpilot is not vouching for the figure at the moment.

FxPro Spread Betting FAQs

Can You Spread Bet Shares At FxPro?

No. FxPro’s own spread betting page lists the asset classes its spread betting platform covers, and shares are not among them.

Which Company Do You Contract With When You Spread Bet At FxPro?

Spread bets are placed with FxPro UK Limited (FRN 509956). There is a second FxPro company on the CySEC register in Cyprus, and its register entry lists the fxpro.co.uk web address among its approved domains, so checking the UK address against the Cypriot register returns a firm that is not the one authorised to take UK retail clients. Match the regulator as well as the name.

Does FxPro Offer Guaranteed Stop-Loss Orders?

No. FxPro states in its own FAQ that the requested price of a stop-loss order is never guaranteed.

Does FxPro Charge An Inactivity Fee?

FxPro publishes that a live account is disabled after a period of inactivity and can be reactivated by email. FxPro states in its UK Client Agreement that after six months without trading it may charge a one-off maintenance and administration fee of USD 10, then a monthly inactivity fee of USD 10.

Are FxPro Spread Betting Profits Tax-Free In The UK?

For most UK individuals, spread betting profits are free of Capital Gains Tax and the bets carry no Stamp Duty. Tax treatment depends on your individual circumstances and can change, so you should seek professional tax advice if you are unsure.

Opening An FxPro Spread Betting Account

If you came here for one market rather than for the account, our pages on index spread betting and gold spread betting cover how those bets are priced. Betting carried on as part of an existing trade can be taxed, and for most UK retail traders the answer depends on your individual circumstances, as when betting counts as trading makes clear.

Visit FxPro

75% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading spread bets and CFDs with this provider.

Your capital is at risk. Spread betting is leveraged, so losses can exceed the amount you set out to risk on a bet. This page is not financial or tax advice.

Updated . Updated on 9 Oct 2026: We took the August 2026 tests of order execution, the apps and customer service, and everything drawn from their results, off the FxPro review because they could not be verified against account records; the Customer Service mark goes back to the 2/10 of the 26 Aug 2026 scoring sheet, taking the score to 30/100.
