Accounts and eligibility
Sections ↑Capital Futures offers exchange-traded futures and a separate USD-funded leveraged FX/CFD service on Capital CTA.

Published exchange margin snapshot
For these currency futures, TAIFEX lists a transaction-tax rate of 0.000001 of contract market value. Customer commission, exchange charges, tax, bid–ask execution and conversion should be reconciled separately on the statement. A quoted commission should identify the contract, currency, per-side or round-trip basis, and included charges. The public pages reviewed do not establish a universal all-in retail futures commission for this firm.[14]

Entity, client money and risk controls
Sections ↑TAIFEX membership identifies the futures intermediary and its clearing role. It does not make leveraged trading capital a guaranteed bank deposit. The review does not establish a current individual compensation limit or a private insurance policy for this account; neither is presented as a benefit. Margin calls and liquidation can leave a balance still payable by the client.[1][2][7]

| Disputed reply | If the response is unacceptable, apply within 60 days after receiving it.Source 18Source 19 |
| Scope | Eligibility and admissibility assessed by FOI; review is not compensation insuranceSource 18 |
Support and account administration
Sections ↑Use the dedicated dealing or cash channel for a time-sensitive instruction. General customer service and an online submission are not substitutes for confirmation that an order or payment has been accepted.
Official service contacts
Platforms, automation and additional services
Sections ↑Software availability and trading permission are separate. Use the platform family assigned to the account and the current certificate; a downloaded program does not by itself enable every market or automation function.

All processing times in this profile are Taipei time unless another timezone is expressly stated. A bank transfer receipt, a posted margin balance and a completed withdrawal are different stages. Keep enough usable collateral for outstanding orders as well as positions; closing a position does not itself submit a bank withdrawal. This profile is a document-based review dated 26 October 2026; it does not report funded-account testing.
