We could not read a restricted-country list on these firms' own sites, so they are left out of the tables above. Check with the firm directly: Legends Trading, Bulenox, Traders Launch, Tradeify FX, Apex Trader Funding.
Before you pay
- Residency and citizenship can both matter. Some firms restrict citizens of a country even if they live elsewhere.
- The real check is at ID verification. A firm can take your payment and still refuse a payout if your documents are from a restricted country.
- Lists change without notice. Open the firm's own list (linked below) before you buy.
- Check how you get paid. Payout methods vary by country, even where a firm accepts you.
