What the record says
STARTRADER Limited is a Securities Dealer regulated by the FSA of Seychelles under licence SD049, registration number 8427362-1, per the company's own regulation page.
STARTRADER International Pty Ltd is a South African Financial Services Provider regulated by the FSCA under FSP number 52464.
STARTRADER's website displays reverse-solicitation notices to visitors in Spain and Italy stating it is not licensed by the CNMV or CONSOB and that those regulators' protections do not apply.
The company states it operates a network of licensed entities and has announced additional licences, including an SCA licence; the full current entity list was not confirmed for this record.
The STARTRADER site is behind bot protection, so parts of the regulation page could not be read directly and were sourced from the page's indexed text.
STARTRADER's regulation page lists five licensed entities: CMA (UAE) licence 20200000241 (Category 5, Introduction and Promotion), ASIC licence 421210 held by STARTRADER Prime Global Pty Ltd (ACN 156005668), FSCA FSP 52464, FSC Mauritius licence GB24203371 held by STARTRADER Financial Markets Limited (Company No. 212229 GBC), and FSA Seychelles SD049 (startrader.com)
The FSA Seychelles capital-markets register lists STARTRADER LIMITED at Block B, Room 2, No.2, Global Village, Jivan's Complex, Mont Fleuri, Mahe, Seychelles (fsaseychelles.sc)
STARTRADER's Client Agreement (November 2023) states client money is held separate from the firm's own money in "Segregated Accounts" with an approved bank, and separately warns that the firm does not guarantee an account will not fall into a negative balance in adverse market conditions (startrader.com)
STARTRADER's own press release states the broker revealed a rebrand at the beginning of 2026 under the theme 'Built on Trust. Driven by Growth.', and presented its post-rebrand vision at iFX EXPO Dubai 2026 (16 February 2026) (startrader.com)
The archived STARTRADER regulation page (6 Oct 2025) lists STARTRADER Broker Limited under FCA reference 821704, while the FCA register records that this firm 'can no longer provide regulated activities and products, but previously was authorised by the FCA and/or PRA' (register.fca.org.uk)
The archived STARTRADER regulation page (6 Oct 2025) also lists STARTRADER (CY) Limited (HE421001, Limassol) as a Cyprus-registered payment-services facilitator that does not offer regulated financial products or trading services (web.archive.org)

- founded — broker's own press-release boilerplate states founded in 2019; conflicting secondary claims exist (an Instagram post says 2013, WikiFX says 1997, Tracxn says 2022); no regulator-register incorporation date located
- minDeposit — broker's account pages publish no minimum-deposit figure per account type; its FAQ only repeats generic industry ranges ($5–$100+); the $50 figure seen on directories could not be confirmed from a primary source
- spreadEurusd — only advertised floors are published (Standard 'as low as 1.3 pips', Prime ECN 'from 0.0 pips'); no typical EUR/USD spread is stated
- negativeBalanceProtection — company page notes NBP 'does not apply to all', and the Client Agreement states no guarantee against negative balances in adverse market conditions
