Are there any restricted countries from which E8 Markets does not accept traders? (Forex)

Regulation of residents applying. Who can sign up?

Updated yesterday

At E8 Markets, our mission is to offer trading opportunities to individuals worldwide. However, due to regulatory requirements and compliance standards, we are unable to accommodate traders from certain countries, as outlined below.

To maintain a secure and compliant platform, all traders must meet specific eligibility standards. This includes being of legal age to trade in their respective regions and successfully completing our Know Your Customer (KYC) process. As part of this verification, traders need to provide documentation such as government-issued identification, and any other required materials to confirm their identity in line with regulatory expectations.

Furthermore, we are required to ensure compliance with the policies of our third-party providers. For example, the trading platforms we collaborate with only accept clients from approved regions. Additionally, payment services like Riseworks and Plane limit transactions to specific countries, which affects where we can process payments.

Our commitment remains to provide a fair, transparent, and secure trading environment for all users. These practices are essential for adhering to regulatory standards and protecting the integrity of our platform. We regret any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

These specific countries have access to all of our products, but there is limited allocation.
