Opening a TradeTime account takes four steps. Most of the time goes into identity verification, so having your documents ready makes the process much faster.
- Register. Fill in the application with your name, email, country of residence and phone number, then choose your account type: Standard or Raw Spread. You'll also answer a few questions about your trading knowledge and experience.
- Verify your identity. Upload a clear photo of a government-issued ID and a recent proof of address. Verification is required by anti-money-laundering rules and protects your account.
- Fund your account. Once verified, make a deposit using one of the payment methods available in your client area. See deposits and withdrawals.
- Log in to TradeLocker. Use your credentials to sign in on web, desktop or mobile. Set up your charts, check the risk calculator and place your first trade.
Documents you'll usually need
Proof of identity
- Passport, or
- National ID card (front and back), or
- Driving licence (front and back)
It must be valid, in colour and show all four corners.
Proof of address
- Utility bill, or
- Bank or card statement, or
- Government or tax letter
It should show your name and address and usually be dated within the last three months.
Tip: make sure the name and address on your documents match your application exactly. Mismatches are the most common reason verification is delayed.
