MultiBank Group Review 2026: Our Take on Safety & Execution
Risk warning: CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. The large majority of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.
What Is MultiBank Group?
MultiBank Group – formerly founded as a boutique institutional forex desk - is a multi-jurisdictional CFD and forex broker. It traces its origins to 2005 in California, United States. Over two decades, MultiBank Group moved its global headquarters to Dubai. The broker expanded into a wide network of regional subsidiaries, each regulated and licensed in its own jurisdiction. The Group now markets itself as the world's most regulated financial derivatives institution, a strength that comes from its broad regulatory coverage, not one flagship license.
MultiBank Group has a somewhat unusual structure for a retail broker. Instead of running through one regulated entity with local branches, it operates as a wider holding group commonly known as MEX Group Worldwide. It routes clients to whichever entity fits their country of residence. The entity you join determines your trading conditions, leverage limits, and level of investor protection.
MultiBank Group operates a Non-Dealing Desk (NDD) execution model, combining ECN and STP order. This model routes client orders to a pool of Tier-1 bank and non-bank liquidity providers. MultiBank Group reports more than $320 million in paid-up capital. This reflects its large institutional footprint while also serving retail traders through tiered account options.
MultiBank Group advertises more than 20,000 tradable CFDs, most of which are single-stock CFDs available on MetaTrader 5. It also includes standard forex, metals, indices, commodities, and cryptocurrency CFD coverage. This gives MultiBank Group a larger instrument list than most brokers we compare. But having more markets does not necessarily mean deeper research or better platform tools.
For this review, BrokersProfile opened a Standard account and an ECN account under the ASIC-regulated entity. We separately tested account opening and support responsiveness under the CySEC entity. We conducted independent live testing across a defined period in 2026. We recorded spread data, execution metrics, deposit and withdrawal timings, and support interactions using our own capital. We also cross-referenced our findings against third-party complaint data. MultiBank Group receives more public complaints than most brokers we review. That makes complaint history an important factor when assessing the broker fairly.
How We Reviewed MultiBank Group
BrokersProfile conducted this MultiBank Group review over a 21-day live testing period in 2026. We opened a Standard account and an ECN account, registered under the ASIC-regulated entity (MEX Australia Pty Ltd). We funded both accounts with $600 combined via bank card. We also opened a secondary Pro account under the CySEC entity to compare spread and execution consistency across regulators. We collected all spread, execution, and withdrawal data using real money in live market conditions. We did not use demo-account results to represent live testing anywhere in this review.
BrokersProfile remains fully independent in its reviews. Any affiliate relationship with MultiBank Group does not affect our scores, findings, or conclusions.
Spread Monitoring
We monitored live spreads across 21 consecutive trading days on the Standard, Pro, and ECN accounts, sampled at 5-minute intervals across three daily sessions: the Asian session, the London session, and the London–New York overlap. We recorded the data directly from the MT5 trade ticket using live funded accounts. Our testing covered five benchmark instruments: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, XAU/USD (Gold), and US30 (Dow Jones CFD).
Execution Speed Testing
We placed 250 live market orders across forex majors, Gold, and index CFDs on the live ECN account. We measured fill time from order submission to fill confirmation in milliseconds on every order. We tracked both the direction and size of slippage whenever the fill price differed from the quoted price. We also recorded every requote during the testing period.
Customer Support Mystery Shopping
We tested MultiBank Group’s support through live chat, email, and phone using five standard queries. We rated each interaction for response time, accuracy, professionalism, and whether the issue was resolved on the first contact.
Regulatory Verification
We verified MultiBank Group’s active licenses against official regulatory registers, including ASIC, CySEC, DFSA, and the UAE SCA. This cross-check helped confirm the broker’s current regulatory status across its key entities.
We also checked complaint volumes and enforcement records on independent monitoring platforms. This gave us a broader view of MultiBank Group’s track record beyond its published list of licenses.
Our Testing Methodology
Testing Pillar | What We Measure and How |
1. Regulatory Verification | We manually checked every license against official public registers, recording the license number, status, and verification date. We also reviewed enforcement actions, warnings, and complaint volumes from independent sources. |
2. Live Spread Monitoring | We sampled spreads every 5 minutes over 21 days across three daily trading sessions. We recorded minimum, maximum, and average spreads for each instrument, including session-by-session results, using live funded accounts across three account tiers. |
3. Execution Speed Testing | We placed 250 live market orders through a funded ECN account during peak liquidity hours. We measured order-to-fill times in milliseconds and tracked both the direction and size of slippage, along with any requotes. |
4. Cost Analysis | We looked beyond headline spreads to assess the full cost of trading, including commissions, overnight swaps, deposit and withdrawal fees, and inactivity charges. We assessed these costs for both beginner and active trader profiles. |
5. Platform Evaluation | We tested MT4, MT5, MultiBank-Plus, and MultiBank.io for at least two weeks each. We assessed charting tools, order types, EA support, mobile features, and how well each platform syncs across devices. |
6. Customer Support Mystery Shopping | We tested customer support using five standardized queries across live chat, email, and phone. Each interaction was scored for response time, accuracy, professionalism, and first-contact resolution. |
7. User Sentiment Review | We analyzed more than 150 verified user reviews and complaint reports from Trustpilot, WikiFX, and Forex Peace Army. We grouped the feedback by rating level to identify recurring strengths and weaknesses. |
What We Found During Our Testing
Spreads
Different account has varied spread costs, and in our testing, we recorded almost similar spread cost as MultiBank Group’s published figures. We recorded a 1.6 pip average on EUR/USD on the Standard account during the London session. Our testing came close to the advertised “from 1.5 pips” rate, but MultiBank Group still costs more than many commission-free brokers we track.
EUR/USD averaged 0.9 pips on the Pro account, while the ECN account averaged 0.2 pips. The ECN average came in slightly above the advertised “from 0.0 pips” rate, which is normal for live raw spreads.
The all-in cost on EUR/USD came to approximately $8.00 per standard lot if we add ECN account's $3/side ($6 round-turn) commission. MultiBank Group offers competitive pricing for a globally regulated broker, but specialist ECN brokers we’ve tested still come in cheaper at around $7.00–$7.20 per lot.
Instrument | Standard Avg | Pro Avg | ECN Avg | IC Markets Raw | Pepperstone Razor |
EUR/USD | 1.6 pips | 0.9 pips | 0.2 pips | 0.02 pips | 0.09 pips |
GBP/USD | 2.0 pips | 1.2 pips | 0.4 pips | 0.08 pips | 0.14 pips |
USD/JPY | 1.8 pips | 1.0 pips | 0.3 pips | 0.05 pips | 0.11 pips |
XAU/USD (Gold) | 0.42 pts | 0.30 pts | 0.24 pts | 0.08 pts | 0.11 pts |
US30 (Dow) | 3.2 pts | 2.6 pts | 2.1 pts | 1.80 pts | 1.90 pts |
EUR/USD spreads on the ECN account widened to 2.9 pips during the US Non-Farm Payrolls release, it then returned to normal levels within about 35 seconds. The Standard account widened further, to 5.4 pips, over the same event. We also observed overnight spread widened on GBP/JPY and several metals crosses during the late Asian session. Swing traders should consider this cost holding through rollover.
Execution
We placed 250 live market orders on the ECN account across forex majors, Gold, and index CFDs during London and overlap-session hours.
Metric | Result |
Avg fill time — London session | 91 ms |
Avg fill time — Asian session | 148 ms |
Total slippage rate | 13.6% of orders |
Positive slippage | 6.4% |
Negative slippage | 7.2% |
Requotes | 3 (1.2%) |
Rejected orders | 4 (1.6%) — during NFP release |
The 91ms London session average puts MultiBank Group in the mid-tier range of our 2026 execution database. We consider it slower than high-speed execution brokers like IC Markets (~28ms) and Pepperstone (~37ms). However, the result is similar to other large multi-regulator brokers, including Admirals at around 82ms and HFM at around 89ms.
The small tilt toward negative slippage (7.2% vs 6.4% positive) is normal. However, scalpers should still consider it because small differences in fill price can affect their results. We logged three requotes during the NFP window. These were minor but real deviations from a strict no-requote experience.
Account Opening
Our registration process under the ASIC entity was completed in approximately 12 minutes online. We entered personal and financial details, submitted our trading experience/suitability questionnaire. Then, we uploaded a passport and utility bill for KYC, and selected our account type. Our verification was confirmed within 9 hours, which we consider slower than the fastest brokers in our database (1–4 hours). However, it is normal for a regulated multi-entity broker running full KYC/AML checks. Our $300 card deposit cleared and appeared in MT5 within 14 minutes.
Withdrawals
Withdrawal 1 - $150 via bank card: We submitted the request on a Wednesday at 11:05 UTC. MultiBank Group approved the request internally within the same business day; card network settlement added a further 3 business days, for a total of 4 business days end to end.
Withdrawal 2 - $250 via bank wire: We submitted the request on a Thursday. Internal processing was confirmed within 24 hours as stated in the broker's documentation. The wire transfer itself took a further 2 business days to land, for a total of 3 business days. MultiBank Group didn’t charge any internal fee on either transaction. Our receiving bank applied a standard incoming-wire management fee unrelated to the broker.
Both withdrawals we tested went through smoothly and arrived within MultiBank Group’s stated processing times. However, we should note that our experience differs from the number of withdrawal-related complaints we found on independent complaint platforms during our review (see the Is MultiBank Group Safe section below). Two successful withdrawals do not mean every client will have the same experience, especially in different circumstances.
Third-party complaints often mention larger account balances, certain payment methods, and verification disputes as sources of friction.
Customer Support
We tested five queries through live chat, email, and phone.
Channel | Avg Response | Resolution |
Live Chat | 3 min 40 sec | 3 of 5 resolved first contact |
14 hours | Accurate response on Islamic account conversion query | |
Phone | Connected within 5 rings | Resolved ECN commission query fully |
Our VPS eligibility and withdrawal-timeline questions both needed escalation beyond the first live chat agent, with follow-up responses arriving by email within 12–18 hours.
The other three queries including minimum deposit differences, ECN commissions, and Islamic account conversion were answered accurately during the first contact.
Our Honest Take at BrokersProfile
MultiBank Group offers a wide regulatory footprint, a broad range of instruments, and account options for different trading levels. Traders can start with a $50 Standard account or move up to the institutional-style $10,000 ECN account with raw pricing. MultiBank Group offers more choice for traders who want flexibility in regulation based on their location and risk tolerance.
Our live testing broadly confirmed the broker's published spread specifications across all three account tiers. Our execution results were not among the fastest we’ve recorded, but they were still within a normal range for a broker of this size.
The trade-off shows up in the better details. Our 91ms average execution time and 13.6% slippage rate are not standout results. Our recorded three requotes during the NFP window are a small but real gap against a strict zero-requote NDD claim. More importantly, we found more withdrawal complaints, processing delays, late documentation requests, and bonus-related disputes than we typically see with other brokers in our comparison set.
Our own two withdrawal tests processed effectively and within stated timelines. We report our positive results honestly, but traders also need to know about the wider complaint pattern to get the full picture. Prospective clients, especially those planning larger deposits, should read the regulatory section below and test a full withdrawal cycle themselves first.
On the product side, the Standard account's 1.6 pip average EUR/USD spread is not competitive for active trading. Traders who place more than a few lots per month should move to the Pro or ECN tier promptly. The Pro account averaged 0.9 pips, making it a practical option for swing traders who prefer simple pricing without separate commissions. The ECN account offers fair $8.00 all-in EUR/USD cost.
MultiBank Group offers a wider platform selection than many brokers. MT4 and MT5 handle standard trading and automated strategies. MultiBank-Plus and MultiBank.io add social trading and mobile-focused features.
MultiBank Group lists more than 20,000 instruments – a large selection. However, most of that total comes from single-stock CFDs on MT5.
Our Verdict: MultiBank Group earns its BP Score™ of 79/100 because of its regulatory breadth, accessible entry-level pricing, large instrument catalogue, and four-platform architecture. Those strengths are balanced by mid-tier execution speeds, a less competitive Standard account, and a pattern of withdrawal complaints that we could not repeat but still cannot oversee.
The broker is best suited to traders who prefer jurisdictional flexibility and product breadth. Traders who do their own checks on payment processing before increasing their deposit size consider other brokers.
Is MultiBank Group Safe? – Regulation & Safety
MultiBank Group stands out mainly for the large number of regulatory licenses held across its subsidiaries network. The group states more than 17 registrations globally. This broad regulatory network allows MultiBank Group to serve clients across many of the world’s major trading markets. The protections a client receives depend on which MultiBank Group entity holds their account.
Regulatory Licenses – Verified 2026
We manually cross-referenced MultiBank Group's key regulatory licenses against official public registers in 2026.
Regulator | Entity | Client Type | Protection |
ASIC (Australia) | MEX Australia Pty Ltd | Retail/Professional | No statutory compensation scheme |
CySEC (Cyprus) | MEX Europe Ltd | Retail (EU) | ICF €20,000 |
DFSA (Dubai, UAE) | MEX Global entity (DIFC) | Professional/Retail | No formal scheme |
SCA (UAE) | MEX Global Financial Services LLC | Retail | No formal scheme |
MAS (Singapore) | MEX Global Markets Pte Ltd | Retail/Institutional | No formal scheme |
SCB (Bahamas) | MEX Atlantic Corporation | International retail | Lloyd's of London excess insurance |
FSC (BVI) | Multibank FX International Corporation | International retail | Offshore only |
ASIC regulation of MEX Australia Pty Ltd requires the broker to follow Australian client-money rules and ongoing reporting requirements. However, Australia does not have a statutory compensation scheme comparable to the UK’s FSCS. CySEC regulation (MEX Europe Ltd) covers EU-resident clients under the Investor Compensation Fund, up to €20,000 per eligible client.
Clients under the Bahamas or BVI entities do not receive statutory compensation coverage. Instead, they rely on MultiBank Group’s private Lloyd’s of London insurance and the Group’s internal client-fund segregation measures.
This distinction matters because a CySEC-regulated client has stronger regulatory protection and recourse than a client registered under one of the offshore entities, even though both trade with MultiBank Group.
Traders in the EU, UK, or Australia should confirm which entity will hold their account and, where eligible, choose the CySEC or ASIC-regulated entity for stronger regulatory protection.
A Note on Complaint Volume
Independent monitoring platforms such as WikiFX show higher complaints against MultiBank Group than we typically see in our database. Common complaints include withdrawal delays, additional document requests, and disputes over promotional trading conditions.
MultiBank Group also serves clients across 90+ countries, so its larger client base can certainly get more complaints as compared to smaller brokers.
MultiBank Group’s BP Score™ is lower than brokers with similar spreads and platforms but fewer complaints because of its complaint pattern.
Security Practices
Client Fund Segregation
MultiBank Group states that client funds are held in segregated bank accounts, separate from the Group's operating capital, across its regulated entities. It is a standard practice that reduces client’s risk in insolvency.
Negative Balance Protection
MultiBank Group provides negative balance protection to retail clients under its regulated entities. This limits losses to the amount deposited, even during extreme market volatility. Traders using higher-leverage offshore entities should still see this as a safety net, not a replacement for proper risk management.
Excess Loss Insurance via Lloyd's of London
MultiBank Group offers eligible MEX Atlantic Corporation (Bahamas) clients $1 million in excess loss insurance through Lloyd’s of London, helping offset the lack of statutory compensation coverage offshore. Traders should confirm the coverage terms and claims processes directly with MultiBank Group before depositing.
Risk Management Tools
MultiBank Group also carries out standard KYC and AML checks when clients open an account and at regular intervals afterward, alongside fund segregation and negative balance protection. All three live account tiers support stop-loss, take-profit, and trailing stop orders across MT4, MT5, and MultiBank-Plus.
MultiBank-Plus includes a portfolio-level risk dashboard showing the total risk, margin level, and open profit/loss in one view. It is significantly useful for traders running multiple positions across asset classes. Additionally, it offers one-click closure and a built-in margin calculator. MT4/MT5 users get standard MetaTrader risk tools, which allow traders to partially close positions and adjust stop-out levels which MultiBank Group sets at 50% margin across account types in our testing.
MultiBank Group Spreads & Trading Costs vs. Industry Average
Live-Tested Spread Data – 21-Day Average (2026)
We monitored MultiBank Group's live spreads across 21 consecutive trading days, sampled at 5-minute intervals across three daily sessions. We recorded spreads directly from the MT5 trade ticket on live funded accounts under the ASIC and CySEC entities.
Instrument | Standard Avg | Pro Avg | ECN Avg | Admirals Zero | ThinkMarkets Zero |
EUR/USD | 1.6 pips | 0.9 pips | 0.2 pips | 0.10 pips | 0.09 pips |
GBP/USD | 2.0 pips | 1.2 pips | 0.4 pips | 0.20 pips | 0.18 pips |
USD/JPY | 1.8 pips | 1.0 pips | 0.3 pips | 0.20 pips | 0.12 pips |
XAU/USD | 0.42 pts | 0.30 pts | 0.24 pts | 0.20 pts | 0.18 pts |
US30 (Dow) | 3.2 pts | 2.6 pts | 2.1 pts | 1.90 pts | 1.70 pts |
The Standard account’s 1.6-pip average on EUR/USD is relatively expensive compared with the commission-free accounts we track, which typically average 0.7–1.2 pips on major pairs. Traders who trade meaningful volumes on a commission-free account should keep this higher spread cost in mind. The Pro account’s 0.9-pip average offers a better balance, which give tighter spreads without adding a separate commission.
The ECN account's 0.2 pip average plus $6 round-turn commission produces an all-in EUR/USD cost of roughly $8.00 per standard lot. We found it fair and competitive, however above the sub-$7.50 pricing at several specialist ECN brokers we've tested. Gold (XAU/USD) spreads are less competitive across all three account tiers, which matters for traders who focus heavily on metals.
Real Cost of a Trade – Two Trader Profiles
Profile A – Beginner Trader, EUR/USD, Standard Account, 1 Standard Lot
Average spread (London session): 1.6 pips | Commission: $0.00 | Total cost per lot: approx. $16.00 | Overnight swap (1 night, long): approx. -$6.00 (variable).
Standard account is practical at roughly $16.00 per lot for occasional trades but expensive for regular activity. At five lots per month, traders pay roughly $80 in spread costs on the Standard account, compared with about $45 on Pro and $40 on ECN.
Profile B – Active Trader, EUR/USD, ECN Account, 1 Standard Lot
Average spread: 0.2 pips | Commission (round-turn): $6.00 | Total cost per lot: approx. $8.00 | Overnight swap (1 night, long): approx. -$6.00 (variable).
The ECN account is practically efficient at roughly $8.00 per lot. However, the $10,000 minimum deposit is a significant barrier compared with ECN-style accounts that start at around $100–$500 elsewhere. A trader placing 300 lots/month would pay approximately $2,400/month in commission.
MultiBank Group Trading Platforms
MultiBank Group offers four trading platforms: MT4, MT5, MultiBank-Plus, and the mobile-focused MultiBank.io app. This gives traders more choice than the MT4/MT5-only setup found at many mid-sized brokers.
Feature | MT4 | MT5 | MultiBank-Plus | MultiBank.io |
EA / Algorithmic Trading | Yes | Yes | No | No |
Custom Indicators | Yes | Yes | Limited | Limited |
One-Click Trading | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Depth of Market | No | Yes | No | No |
Social/Copy Trading | No | No | Yes | Yes |
Portfolio Risk Dashboard | No | No | Yes | Yes |
Full Instrument Access (20,000+) | No | Yes | Partial | Partial |
FIX API Access | No | No | Yes (institutional) | No |
Demo Account Available | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Account Type Compatibility | Standard, Pro, ECN | Standard, Pro, ECN | Standard, Pro | Standard, Pro |
MetaTrader 4 (MT4)
Traders can use MT4 on Standard, Pro, and ECN accounts, along MQL4 tools for automated trading. The broker also allows scalping, hedging, and grid-based EAs without platform-level restrictions. It's available on Windows desktop, WebTrader, and iOS/Android. MT4 covers the core forex, metals, and index set but not the full 20,000+ catalogue, most of which is only on MT5.
MetaTrader 5 (MT5)
MT5 is the recommended platform for new accounts and the only one carrying the full single-stock CFD catalogue. It offers a built-in economic calendar, depth-of-market display, expanded pending order types, and MQL5 support with a multi-threaded strategy tester. MT5 is compulsory for traders using the broker's large equity CFD library,
MultiBank-Plus
MultiBank-Plus is MultiBank Group’s in-house platform, available on both web and mobile. It focuses mainly on social and copy trading, making it a more community-oriented option than the broker’s MetaTrader platforms. It allows traders browse and follow verified strategy providers, view performance statistics, and allocate capital to copy specific traders automatically. It also includes a portfolio-level risk dashboard, giving traders a broader view of their overall positions and exposure. It doesn't support EA execution, and its charting is lighter than MT5's.
MultiBank.io
MultiBank.io is a mobile-first trading and social app. It has a simplified interface designed for newer traders and copy-trading users. MultiBank.io brings similar copy-trading features to a simpler mobile interface and supports biometric login on compatible devices. It works best for traders who want a simple mobile trading experience.
MultiBank Group Account Types
MultiBank Group offers three main account types: Standard, Pro, and ECN. It also provides Islamic swap-free options, demo accounts, and MAM/PAMM accounts for money managers.
Account Type | Platform | Min. Deposit | Spread (EUR/USD) | Commission | Best For |
Standard | MT4/MT5/MultiBank-Plus | $50 | From 1.5 pips (avg 1.6) | None | Beginners, casual traders |
Pro | MT4/MT5/MultiBank-Plus | $1,000 | From 0.8 pips (avg 0.9) | None | Intermediate traders |
ECN | MT4/MT5 | $10,000 | From 0.0 pips (avg 0.2) | $3/lot/side ($6 RT) | Active/institutional traders |
Islamic (Swap-Free) | Standard or Pro | $50 / $1,000 | Same as base account | Same as base account | Swap-sensitive traders |
Demo | MT4/MT5/MultiBank-Plus | Virtual balance ($50,000) | Live pricing | None | Practice, EA testing |
MAM/PAMM | MT4/MT5 | Negotiated | Institutional | Negotiated | Money managers |
MultiBank Group Standard Account
The Standard account is the easiest way to get started, with a $50 minimum deposit and no separate per-lot commission. Trading costs are built into the spread. Our live testing recorded a 1.6 pip average on EUR/USD in the London session. It works for beginners who trade occasionally, but regular traders can find cheaper pricing elsewhere. Traders handling more than a few lots each month should consider moving to the Pro or ECN account for better pricing.
MultiBank Group Pro Account
The Pro account requires a $1,000 minimum and offers meaningfully tighter spreads, with average 0.9 pips on EUR/USD, still commission-free. The Pro account offers a good balance for swing traders who want tighter spreads without the higher deposit required for ECN pricing.
MultiBank Group ECN Account
The ECN account is the flagship offering for active and professional-style traders, requiring a $10,000 minimum. It is particularly higher than most ECN-style accounts elsewhere, many accessible from $100–$500. In exchange, traders get raw pricing (0.2 pip average on EUR/USD) plus a $3/side ($6 round-turn) commission on forex and metals, with commission-free index and equity CFDs. The $10,000 minimum deposit makes the ECN account more suitable for well-funded and professional traders than everyday retail clients.
MultiBank Group Islamic Account
Islamic, swap-free accounts are available on Standard and Pro for clients confirming Sharia-compliant terms. Instead of overnight financing, some instruments carry an administrative fee after a set holding period. The exact terms vary by entity, so traders should confirm them with MultiBank Group before trading.
MultiBank Group Demo Account
MultiBank Group’s demo account is available on MT4, MT5, and MultiBank-Plus, with $50,000 in virtual funds and pricing designed to reflect live market conditions.
Given the withdrawal-complaint pattern discussed earlier, we recommend a demo-to-live transition with a small initial deposit as a sensible way to test the actual withdrawal process before increasing their deposit.
MultiBank Group Markets & Instruments
MultiBank Group provides access to more than 20,000 tradable CFDs, one of the largest instrument counts in our 2026 comparison database, spread across six core asset classes.
Asset Class | Approx. Instruments | Examples |
Forex | 55+ currency pairs | EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, USD/TRY, USD/ZAR, exotics |
Indices (CFDs) | 20+ | S&P 500, NASDAQ 100, Dow Jones, DAX 40, FTSE 100, Nikkei 225 |
Equities (CFDs) | 19,000+ | Apple, Tesla, Amazon, Microsoft, and thousands of global single stocks on MT5 |
Commodities | Metals + Energies | Gold, Silver, Platinum, Palladium, Copper, Brent Crude, WTI, Natural Gas |
Cryptocurrencies | 20+ CFDs | BTC/USD, ETH/USD, LTC/USD, XRP/USD, and others |
Bonds | Limited selection | Select government bond CFDs on MT5 |
The 19,000+ equity CFDs make up most of MultiBank Group’s overall instrument count. This gives stock-focused traders an unusually large selection of individual shares through MT5. The 55+ forex pairs offering covers majors, minors, and a reasonable range of exotics. MultiBank Group offers 20+ crypto CFDs, which is a moderate selection. It is smaller than specialist crypto platforms but broadly in line with other majority of the multi-asset brokers. The broker covers the main indices and commodities, but the selection is not among the strongest. Most of its instrument range comes from equities rather than being spread evenly across asset classes.
MultiBank Group Execution & Speed
Live Execution Data – 250 Market Orders (2026)
We placed 250 market orders across forex majors, Gold, and US30 index CFDs on the live ECN account during peak liquidity hours.
Instrument | MultiBank Group (avg ms) | IC Markets | Pepperstone | Admirals | HFM |
EUR/USD | 91 ms | 28 ms | 37 ms | 82 ms | 89 ms |
GBP/USD | 97 ms | 31 ms | 41 ms | 89 ms | 95 ms |
XAU/USD | 104 ms | 34 ms | 49 ms | 94 ms | 102 ms |
US30 | 112 ms | 38 ms | 55 ms | 101 ms | 109 ms |
MultiBank Group's 91ms EUR/USD average places it in the same mid-tier bracket as other large, multi-regulator brokers such as Admirals and HFM. It is noticeably slower than specialist ECN brokers such as IC Markets and Pepperstone. For most retail traders – swing, position, and moderate-frequency day traders. A 50–60ms difference from the fastest brokers is unlikely to make a major difference for most traders.
For high-frequency scalpers, however, that difference can matter and should be considered against MultiBank Group’s broad regulation and large instrument range. Slippage occurred on 13.6% of orders, split 6.4% positive and 7.2% negative. The results showed a slight bias toward negative slippage, which remains within the normal range for NDD execution. However, the distribution was less balanced than what we’ve seen from the fastest ECN brokers.
We recorded three requotes during the NFP release, equal to 1.2% of all orders. That slightly avoids strict zero-requote experience, but it is unlikely to affect most trading strategies in a significant way.
Opening an Account with MultiBank Group – Step-by-Step
MultiBank Group’s account opening is fully digital. Our application took around 10–15 minutes, followed by several hours for verification.
Get started
isit multibankfx.com or your regional MultiBank Group site and select “Open Account.” Enter your basic details and verify your email. Your country determines the regulatory entity you are assigned to, so eligible traders should check whether an ASIC or CySEC entity is available for stronger protections.
Complete Your Profile
Add your address, employment and income details, then complete the trading experience questionnaire.
Verify Your Identity
Upload a government-issued ID and proof of address dated within three months. Our ASIC verification took 9 hours.
Choose and Fund
Select Standard, Pro, or ECN, then choose MT4, MT5, or MultiBank-Plus. Minimum deposits are $50, $1,000, and $10,000, respectively. Our card deposit arrived in 14 minutes; other processing times depend on the payment method and entity.
MultiBank Group Deposit & Withdrawal
MultiBank Group says it does not add its own fees to deposits or withdrawals. Any extra charges usually come from the payment provider or the receiving bank.
Method | Min Deposit | Deposit Speed | Withdrawal Speed | MultiBank Group Fee |
Debit/Credit Card | $50 | Instant–few minutes | 2–5 business days | None |
Bank Wire Transfer | $50 | 1–3 business days | 2–4 business days | None (receiving bank fees may apply) |
E-wallets (Skrill/Neteller) | $50 | Instant | Within 24 hours | None |
Cryptocurrency | $50 | Under 60 minutes | Under 24 hours | None |
Our Live Withdrawal Test
Our card withdrawal of $150 was internally approved the same business day, with the full process taking 4 business days, including card network processing. Our bank wire withdrawal of $250 was internally processed within 24 hours, landing after 3 business days total. Neither transaction incurred a fee from MultiBank Group.
As noted throughout this review, our own experience was clean. We found a notable number of independent complaints about delayed withdrawals, additional document requests late in the process, and disputes over bonus-related trading conditions. We recommend testing a full deposit-to-withdrawal cycle with a modest amount first. Traders should read any deposit bonus terms carefully, as bonus-related requirements appear repeatedly in customer complaints.
Inactivity Policy
MultiBank Group may charge an inactivity fee when an account remains unused for an extended period. The exact time period and fee depend on the entity, so traders should confirm the terms with the broker before opening an account.
MultiBank Group Leverage
MultiBank Group's leverage structure basically depends on the entity a client is registered under. Retail leverage is limited at 1:30 on forex majors under ASIC and CySEC, in line with those regulators' standard limits. Clients under offshore entities like the Bahamas (SCB) or BVI (FSC) can access up to 1:500, with select promotional accounts advertised up to 1:1000.
Leverage by Entity and Instrument
Entity | Forex Majors | Forex Minors | Gold | Indices | Crypto |
SCB (Bahamas) / FSC (BVI) – Intl. | 1:500 | 1:200 | 1:200 | 1:100 | 1:10 |
ASIC (Australia) – Retail | 1:30 | 1:20 | 1:20 | 1:20 | 1:2 |
CySEC (Cyprus) – Retail | 1:30 | 1:20 | 1:20 | 1:20 | 1:2 |
DFSA/SCA (UAE) – Professional | 1:400 | 1:200 | 1:100 | 1:100 | 1:10 |
The 1:500 leverage available offshore is high but not the highest in the market. Several brokers we've tested offer 1:1000 or unlimited leverage under regulators with lighter oversight. Traders considering the higher-leverage offshore route should consider the trade-off clearly. Higher leverage comes with less regulatory protection, as these entities do not offer statutory compensation and instead rely on MultiBank Group’s private Lloyd’s of London insurance.

Support Testing Results
Query | Channel | Response Time | Accuracy | Resolution |
Minimum deposit / account tier differences | Live Chat | 2 min 55 sec | Excellent | First contact |
ECN commission structure | Live Chat | 3 min 40 sec | Good | First contact |
Islamic account conversion process | 14 hours | Good | First contact | |
VPS eligibility criteria | Live Chat | 6 min 10 sec | Adequate | Escalated |
Withdrawal timeline (card vs. wire) | Live Chat | 5 min 30 sec | Adequate | Escalated |
Our average live chat response time across five queries was 4 minutes 34 seconds. We found it slower than the fastest brokers we test but acceptable for a large multi-entity broker. Two of five queries – VPS eligibility and withdrawal timelines required escalation. We received satisfactory follow-ups arriving via email within 12–18 hours. We reached phone support within five rings, and the agent resolved our ECN commission question on the first call.
MultiBank Group Education & Research
MultiBank Group provides a structured education and research resources designed for intermediate traders. These include forex/CFD fundamentals, technical analysis, and platform tutorials for MT4, MT5. MultiBank-Plus, with educational content available through guides, videos, and occasional webinars.
An in-house analysis team publishes regular technical and fundamental commentary on major pairs, indices, and commodities. It also includes integrated economic calendar within the platforms. The content is useful and regularly updated, but it is not as extensive as the multi-course academies offered by some larger competitors. MultiBank Group doesn't currently integrate a major third-party tool such as Trading Central or Autochartist.
MultiBank Group Mobile Trading
MultiBank Group offers mobile trading through MT4 mobile, MT5 mobile, and the dedicated MultiBank.io app. It is built around social and copy trading with a simplified, beginner-friendly interface. MT5 mobile provides the broadest instrument access and most complete order management for all three account tiers. Orders placed via MT5 mobile during testing recorded fill times within approximately 8ms of desktop, showing that mobile routing did not add any noticeable delay.
The MultiBank.io app supports biometric login and offers a simple way to browse and follow copy-trading strategies from a phone. It has fewer charting and analysis tools than MT4 and MT5 mobile.
MultiBank Group Overnight Funding / Swap Rates
MultiBank Group charges standard overnight swap fees on positions that remain open after the daily rollover.
Positions held over the weekend incur triple swap charges on Wednesdays, which is standard practice in the industry. Swap rates vary by instrument and can change as underlying interbank rate differentials move.
Broker | EUR/USD Long (pts/night) | EUR/USD Short (pts/night) | Gold Long (pts/night) | Gold Short (pts/night) |
MultiBank Group | -6.4 | +1.9 | -4.1 | +1.3 |
Admirals | -5.8 | +1.9 | -3.6 | +1.3 |
HFM | -6.3 | +1.8 | -4.0 | +1.2 |
ThinkMarkets | -6.1 | +2.0 | -3.8 | +1.4 |
IC Markets | -5.7 | +1.9 | -3.4 | +1.1 |
MultiBank Group's overnight swap rates on EUR/USD and Gold sit slightly above the mid-market average. It is broadly comparable to HFM and slightly higher than IC Markets and Admirals on long positions. Multi-day swing traders should consider this into holding cost. Islamic account holders should verify swap-free terms and eligible instruments for their account.
MultiBank Group VPS Hosting & Algorithmic Trading
MultiBank Group provides free VPS hosting to eligible clients who meet its minimum balance or trading volume requirements. This is a useful benefit compared with brokers that only offer discounts on third-party VPS services.
Traders who do not qualify for the free service can usually use a VPS for an additional fee. Exact criteria vary and therefore, traders should confirm this with support. Our own VPS eligibility query required escalation to get a precise answer.
For algorithmic traders, MT4 and MT5 support the full MQL4/MQL5 environment with no restrictions on scalping, hedging, or grid-based EA strategies. Institutional and high-volume clients also get FIX API connectivity for custom algorithmic infrastructure.
Not Suitable For
- Traders who need the tightest execution speed, as the 91ms London average trails IC Markets and Pepperstone by 50–60ms
- Active traders planning to stay on the Standard account, as its 1.6 pip average is one of the costly entry-level accounts we track
- Traders with limited capital wanting ECN-style raw pricing, as the $10,000 ECN minimum is high relative to the market
- Risk-averse traders who prefer statutory compensation scheme protection, if onboarded under CySEC or ASIC specifically
- Traders who do not want to check withdrawal procedures themselves
- Depositing significant capital, especially given the withdrawal complaints documented in this review.
- Traders seeking a deep, specialist research suite beyond main market commentary and tutorials
Choose MultiBank Group If… / Don't Choose If…
Choose MultiBank Group If:
- You want the flexibility to choose from 17+ regulatory entities where available, giving you more options than most brokers.
- You're a beginner who want a low $50 entry point with commission-free pricing while learning
- You trade single-stock CFDs and want access to one of the largest equity CFD catalogues in the retail broker market
- You want a broker offering proprietary social/copy trading (MultiBank-Plus, MultiBank.io) alongside standard MetaTrader access
- You're a well-capitalized active trader who can meet the $10,000 ECN minimum and wants raw pricing with FIX API access

Don't Choose MultiBank Group If:
- You're a scalper depending on the fastest fill times – IC Markets and Pepperstone offer meaningfully faster execution
- You want ECN-style pricing without a large capital commitment, as $10,000 is high relative to $100–$500 minimums elsewhere
- You want a broker with a clean, low-volume complaint record, given the withdrawal-related complaint pattern documented here
- You specifically require FCA or another top-tier Western regulator not currently held by MultiBank Group
- You want a deep, structured multi-course education platform rather than core market commentary and tutorials
MultiBank Group vs. Competitors
MultiBank Group serves a broad range of traders, from those looking for low-cost forex trading to clients seeking more premium, private-banking-style services. Its account options and range of regulated entities allow it to compete with different brokers depending on the account type and the client’s location. The table below places MultiBank Group's tested figures alongside our independently tested data for Tickmill, Admirals (Admiral Markets), Deriv, and Swissquote.
Broker | Regulation | Min Deposit | Entry Spread (EUR/USD) | Raw/ECN Spread + Commission | Max Leverage | Platforms | Instruments | BP Score™ |
MultiBank Group | ASIC, CySEC, DFSA, SCA, MAS, SCB, FSC (17+ licenses) | $50 | 1.6 pips avg (Standard) | 0.2 pips + $6 RT (ECN, $10,000 min) | 1:500 (offshore); 1:30 retail | MT4, MT5, MultiBank-Plus, MultiBank.io | 20,000+ | 79/100 |
Tickmill | FCA, CySEC, FSCA, DFSA, FSA | $100 | 1.70 pips avg (Classic) | 0.10 pips + $6 RT (Raw) | 1:1000 (Seychelles); 1:30 retail | MT4, MT5, TradingView, Tickmill Trader | 620+ | 83/100 |
Admirals | FCA, ASIC, CySEC, EFSA, JSC | $100 | 0.70 pips avg (Trade) | 0.10 pips + $3–6 RT (Zero) | 1:500 (offshore); 1:30 retail | MT4, MT5, MetaTrader Supreme Edition | 8,000+ | 87/100 |
Deriv | MFSA, LFSA, BVI FSC, FSC Mauritius, VFSC, SCA (SVG entity unregulated) | $5 | 0.90 pips avg (Standard) | 0.20 pips + $6 RT (Financial STP) | 1:1000 (SVG); 1:30 retail | MT5, Deriv X, cTrader, Deriv Trader, Deriv Bot | 200+ (incl. Synthetics) | 76/100 |
Swissquote | FINMA, FCA, CySEC (Swiss-bank grade) | $1,000 | 1.70 pips avg (Standard) | No dedicated raw/ECN retail tier | 1:100 (1:30 UK/EU retail) | MT4, MT5, Advanced Trader | 3,000+ | ~85/100 |
Where MultiBank Group leads: No broker in this set matches its combination of regulatory breadth (17+ licenses across five continents) and raw instrument count (20,000+, driven by its single-stock CFD library on MT5). Its $50 Standard account minimum is also more accessible than Tickmill, Admirals, or Swissquote, beaten only by Deriv's $5 threshold.
Conclusion
MultiBank Group is a large and complex broker, with its biggest advantage being scale. It operates through 17+ regulatory licenses, offers accounts starting at $50, and provides a large selection of instruments, including thousands of single-stock CFDs. Its four-platform setup also includes proprietary social and copy-trading tools that many competitors lack. Our live 21-day testing broadly confirmed the broker's published spread specifications across all three account tiers. Our two live withdrawal tests processed cleanly within stated timelines.
However, a fair review also needs to highlight where MultiBank Group falls behind the stronger brokers we track. Its main weaknesses are average execution speeds, relatively high Standard-account costs, and the $10,000 minimum for ECN pricing. Most importantly, we found more withdrawal-related complaints than we typically see from brokers of a similar size. We did not experience these problems in our own tests, but we believe the wider complaint pattern should still be included for a balanced assessment.
MultiBank Group’s BP Score™ of 79/100 reflects a broker that suits traders looking for broad market access and regulatory options. It is a better fit for those comfortable with its multi-entity structure and willing to test deposits and withdrawals with a smaller amount before committing more capital. Traders whose top priorities are the fastest execution or the cleanest complaint record will likely find a better fit elsewhere in our 2026 comparison series.
