Demo Accounts

Yes, we offer a free demo account that comes with £10,000 in virtual funds, allowing you to try out our platform, practise placing trades, and experiment with trading strategies and techniques – all in a risk-free environment.

To open a demo account, you just need to enter your email address, full name, phone number and password. Once you’ve opened your demo account, we’ll send a verification link to your registered email address. Simply click or tap on the link to activate your account, and that’s it. You can start using your demo account.

No, you can keep your demo account open for as long as you like and continue using it, even after you've opened a live account. Add more virtual funds at any time via the 'Payments' menu to continue to practise trading on stock indices, forex, commodities and more.

Please note that shares are available in demo accounts for a limited period only because of exchange restrictions. After you first activate your demo account, you can practise trading on shares for one month.
