A dollar balance, funded from pesos
According to FxPro the first deposit starts at $100 by card or bank wire, while each e‑wallet publishes a floor of its own. Everything that feels strange about funding follows from one line in the terms: the account is denominated in dollars. Paying that $100 from a peso card is a cross-border transaction on your side, priced by your card issuer rather than the broker — which is why the statement rarely matches the sum a currency converter quoted an hour earlier. FxPro states it adds no charge to a deposit. Money lands first in the FxPro Wallet inside the portal, and you push it from there onto a trading account.
| Method | Minimum | Usually credited |
|---|---|---|
| Bank card | $100 | ~10 minutes |
| PayPal · Skrill · Neteller | varies → | same day |
| Bank wire (international) | $100 | 3–5 business days |
One caution about domestic wallets: the funding menu inside the portal is the definitive list, and a payment app everyone uses locally is not automatically on it. Whatever you pick, use an account in your own name — funding from somebody else’s card is the quickest way to have a deposit sent back.
The return leg
Withdrawals do not get to choose a destination: a payout retraces the deposit. If a card paid the money in, that card receives it back; a wire returns to the account that sent it. Same logic as any refund, and worth knowing beforehand, because it quietly decides which card is worth funding with. FxPro’s published terms put no fee on either direction. What changes the number is the second border crossing: pesos are bought back at the receiving bank’s rate, so the round trip never mirrors exactly.
| Channel | Payout usually takes |
|---|---|
| PayPal · Skrill · Neteller | same day |
| Bank card | ~1 business day |
| Bank wire (international) | 3–5 business days |
Two practical notes. Weekends and local holidays are not business days at either end of a wire, so a Friday evening request arrives Monday or Tuesday. And keep the profile current: an expired card cannot receive its own refund, which turns a same-day payout into a support conversation.
Opening it, and the ID that gets you through
Registration is a form and takes minutes. Verification is where the waiting happens, and nearly every rejection is one thing: two documents that disagree, with each other or with the details typed at sign-up.
- Register in FxPro Direct with an email address you can open on your phone.
- Prove identity. The PhilID national identification card is the modern default; a UMID card or a passport does the same job. Shoot it flat in daylight with every corner visible — glare on a laminated card causes more repeat uploads than anything else.
- Prove residence. A recent utility bill or bank statement showing your name and street address, matching the address in your profile. Moved recently? Update the profile first.
- Pick the account, then fund it from $100. Standard bundles the cost into the quoted price; Raw+ splits it into a tighter quote plus commission; a swap-free variant is available, according to FxPro. Numbers on the price list.
Five platforms, and which of them start on a phone
Most people here meet the internet through a handset, not a desktop tower, so the useful question is not which platform has the deepest menu but which can be opened, funded and closed without borrowing a computer. Two of the five clear that bar: FxPro Edge loads in a browser tab with nothing installed, and the FxPro app puts MT4 and MT5 accounts beside the client portal in one icon.
The familiar workhorse on desktop and mobile; Standard pricing opens at 1.2 pips.
The broader instrument coverage of the two MetaTrader generations.
Depth-of-market quoting on raw pricing, with the $3.50 per-lot charge beside it.
Browser-based and installs nothing — the lightest option on a shared or borrowed device.
Run the FxPro account through TradingView’s charting environment.
Store ratings stand at 4.5★ on Google Play over 10M+ installs and 4.4★ on the App Store, per those listings. Practice accounts cover four of the five, TradingView excepted. Worth remembering on mobile data: trades live on the broker’s servers, not in the app, so a signal dropping on a jeepney interrupts your control of a position rather than the position itself.
Signing in without the guesswork
There is one door, and it is called FxPro Direct. Deposits, payouts, documents, new trading accounts and every password reset happen behind it — in a browser or in the app.
- Open FxPro Direct. The same portal whichever device you hold — nothing is withheld from the mobile version.
- Enter your registered email, then the password. The app can substitute a one-time code for the password, according to FxPro — useful on a keypad, and one less thing to write down.
- Reset from the sign-in form if the password is gone. It goes to the address the account was registered with. If that inbox belonged to an old job or an old number, fix it now.
What the broker charges
Two account types, one question between them: would you rather the cost be invisible inside the price, or visible on a line of its own? Both columns are FxPro’s published terms.
- No separate charge
- Paid inside the price
- Charged $3.50 /lot/side
- Paid as a line item
cTrader is priced on the same raw basis: from 0.0 pips plus $3.50 per lot per side. Read “from” as a floor, not an average — live pricing widens when the market thins. Positions carried overnight accrue swap unless you hold the swap-free variant, an inactivity fee applies once an account has sat unused for six months, and leverage extends to 1:200 depending on account type and eligibility, according to FxPro.
On where the balance is kept: client money is held in segregated accounts rather than mixed with the company’s own, and negative balance protection stops an account from falling past zero — according to FxPro.
