Account structure and starting funding
Sections ↑EXANTE is a multi-asset brokerage for individual and professional investors as well as institutions. Exchange-traded securities, derivatives and OTC instruments share a platform, but they retain different order rules, costs and risks. The published funding threshold is an activation requirement, not an assurance that every applicant or instrument will be accepted.[1][3][8]
Published initial funding thresholds
| Account | Threshold | Condition |
|---|---|---|
| Individual | EUR 10,000 or equivalent | Live trading after funding threshold and approvalSource 3 |
| Corporate | EUR 50,000 or equivalent | Company accountSource 3 |
| Staged transfers | Permitted after documents approved | Trading remains unavailable until threshold reachedSource 3 |

The current website advertises two million instruments across more than 50 markets. Counts are marketing catalogue descriptions, not a verified live entitlement list. Different pages also use different futures counts, so a single precise futures total would be misleading.[9][13][11]
Instrument-level specification fields
| Field | Practical function |

Futures website starting rates
These futures figures are website starting rates. The August help article gives higher instrument-dependent approximate ranges, such as USD 1.70–25.50 for CME. They should not be treated as one all-in charge for every contract; the account’s actual commission schedule governs.[13][16]

The statement that margin access is free does not eliminate negative-cash interest, overnight charges or excess-margin fees. Those charges arise under separate conditions.[6][16]

These are starting requirements, not a universal leverage entitlement. Retail clients cannot use leverage on US or UK stocks other than CFDs. Instrument risk, volatility, liquidity and classification can increase requirements.[7]
Execution restrictions
AutoExec grid strategy
Cash and securities transfers
Sections ↑Deposit process
| Item | Published condition |
|---|---|
| Default route | Bank transfer after document verificationSource 4 |
| Cards and mobile app | No direct card deposits or in-app fundingSource 4 |
| Ownership | Verified account owner onlySource 4 |
| Excluded originators | Crypto exchanges/wallets, sanctioned institutions and restricted-region institutionsSource 4 |
| Bank processing | Typically 1–5 business daysSource 4 |
Withdrawal processing and destination
| Item | Published condition |
|---|---|

| Method | Bank transfer; no direct card payoutSource 19Source 20 |
| Destination | Owner’s account, normally the original funding accountSource 19Source 20 |
| Approval | Typically 24 hours / one business daySource 19Source 20 |
| Bank receipt | Further 3–5 business daysSource 19Source 20 |

| New bank ownership | Bank account-opening letterSource 19 |
Cash and securities withdrawal fees
The 0.9% alternative applies only when both conditions hold: the account was funded by securities transfer and activity was absent, nominal or limited to liquidating those assets for withdrawal. An immediate withdrawal of cash-funded money remains at the standard fee. Intermediary-bank costs can be additional.[5]
Full withdrawal and balances
| Item | Published handling |
|---|---|
| Currency balance | Sufficient funds in the requested withdrawal currencySource 19 |
| Full exit | Convert remaining cash into one currencySource 19 |
| Open positions | Withdrawal page warns to close them firstSource 19 |
| History | Request status and details in Funds Transfer ActivitySource 19 |
Legal entities and authentication
Sections ↑Company-disclosed regulated entities
The Cyprus website separately describes EXT’s UK SRO status as limited to activities needed for pre-existing contracts. That is not equivalent to unrestricted new UK onboarding. Current detailed register permissions did not fully render during this review, so the entity table reports company disclosures.[9][2]
Security and authentication recovery
| Control | Published arrangement |
|---|---|
| Client’s Area and platforms | Mandatory two-factor authenticationSource 21 |
| Method | One-time-password authenticator applicationSource 21 |
| Scope | Same setting applies across EXANTE interfacesSource 21 |
| Lost authenticator | Client Services assists with authentication resetSource 21 |
Operational support routes
Sections ↑Support and administration
| Issue | Documented route |
|---|---|
| No trading permission | Client Services or manual trade-desk workflowSource 18Source 19Source 6Source 4 |
| Beneficiary details | New residence evidence plus support-assisted updateSource 18Source 19Source 6Source 4 |
| Live API pricing | Personal account manager in Client’s AreaSource 18Source 19Source 6Source 4 |
| Account funding paperwork | Account Opening Letter in signed documentsSource 18Source 19Source 6Source 4 |
Analysis and portfolio tools

Pulse is described as market-information assistance with trade links. The page does not establish authority for it to make discretionary investment decisions. AutoExec and FIX automation are separate order-execution mechanisms controlled through their configured instructions.[9][22][10]
Brand ownership and account operator
Sections ↑The help centre identifies XNT LTD as owner of the EXANTE brand, licensed to other operating companies. The contracting entity therefore remains central to the client agreement even when the software, logo and support materials are shared.[1]
