FAQs

Does IST Markets charge conversion fees?

We charge a conversion fee when you deposit or withdraw funds in a currency that is not USD.

As the IST Markets platform operates in USD, we do not charge any fees when you deposit or withdraw funds in USD.  

However, if you deposit in any of our supported currencies (EUR, GBP, AUD, RMB, THB, IDR, MYR, VND, PHP, SEK, DKK, NOK, PLN, CZK, PEN, MXN, QAR, BHD, OMR, AED, SGD), we charge a fee to convert the funds to USD.  

We also charge a conversion fee when you withdraw funds from your IST Markets trading account in any of these currencies. 

If you deposit or withdraw funds in a currency we don’t support, any fee for converting to or from USD is charged by your payment provider, not by IST Markets. 

Conversion fees vary according to your payment method, currency and IST Markets Club level. You can find full details on our fees page here under ‘Conversion fees’.  

There are no USD conversion fees when depositing funds from your IST Markets Money account. You can save up to £5 for every £1,000 you deposit.
