Opening a live forex and CFD trading account with TabTrade is a digital process handled through the Secure Account Portal.
The portal is where you manage your profile, verification, wallets, trading accounts, deposits, withdrawals, and platform credentials.
Step 1: Register for the Secure Account Portal
Visit TabTrade and sign up with your email address. This creates access to the Secure Account Portal.
Use the same legal name, date of birth, and contact details that appear on your verification documents. Mismatched details can slow down verification.
Step 2: Choose an account type
Inside the portal, choose the trading account type that best matches your strategy and experience.
- Standard Account: Designed for newer or traditional traders, with spread-only pricing and no separate trading commission.
- Edge Account: Built for active traders and scalpers, with raw-style pricing and a transparent commission structure.
- VIP Account: Designed for high-volume traders who may need bespoke conditions.
Account availability, minimum deposits, and platform options can vary by region and account status.
Step 3: Complete verification
To comply with international financial regulations, TabTrade must verify your identity before fully activating account features.
You may need to upload:
- A valid government-issued photo ID
- A recent proof of address
- Additional documents if requested by compliance
Upload documents only through the secure verification flow in the portal.
Step 4: Fund your wallet
Go to the Funding section and choose a supported deposit method. The methods shown in the portal depend on your region and account status.
TabTrade wallets can support multiple currencies. You can deposit to your wallet, convert where available, and transfer funds to a live trading account.
Step 5: Connect your platform
Open the platform section in the portal and download or access your chosen trading platform, such as MetaTrader 5 or cTrader.
Use the trading account number and platform password generated in the Secure Account Portal. These are different from your main portal login details.
Still practising?
If you want to test strategies or get used to platform execution before trading live funds, you can open a demo account from the Secure Account Portal. Demo trading uses virtual funds in live-style market conditions.
