  • No cTrader platform
  • Instrument range (~600 CFDs) is narrower than some larger multi-asset competitors, and it offers CFDs only (no true share/ETF ownership)

Full review

Tickmill is a multi-regulated forex and CFD broker founded in 2014 and headquartered in London. It operates through several entities regulated by the FCA (UK), CySEC (Cyprus), FSCA (South Africa), FSA (Seychelles) and DFSA (Dubai); the FCA and CySEC licences are tier-one, client funds are held in segregated accounts, and UK/EU clients benefit from FSCS and ICF investor-compensation schemes. This makes it a solid, safety-focused choice, though it does not accept US clients and is unavailable in some other countries.

On cost and execution Tickmill is competitive. Its Raw account (rebranded from Pro in 2025) offers ECN/STP execution with spreads from 0.0 pips - typically around 0.1 on EUR/USD and roughly 9 cents on gold - plus a $3-per-side commission, while the commission-free Classic account has wider spreads from about 1.6 pips. The minimum deposit is a low $100. Traders can use MT4, MT5, TradingView and the proprietary Tickmill Trader app, but there is no cTrader.

The product range covers about 600 CFDs spanning 60+ forex pairs, indices, commodities, cryptocurrencies, bonds and share/ETF CFDs. Funding is available via card, bank transfer, Skrill, Neteller, crypto and UnionPay (no PayPal), with a demo account and 24/5 multilingual support. Tickmill suits cost-conscious beginners and active traders who want low-cost ECN execution from a well-regulated broker, but those wanting a very large multi-asset catalogue or cTrader may look elsewhere.

Verdict
~ Mixed reviews

Professional reviewers rate Tickmill well (ForexBrokers.com 4.0/5, FXEmpire 4.4/5, strong on withdrawals/support), and many long-term clients praise fast withdrawals and tight spreads. However its Trustpilot reviews are polarised, with a recurring cluster of complaints about account freezing/closure on profitable accounts and bonus-eligibility disputes; aggregate Trustpilot left null (unverified). Reviews appear genuine, but the account-restriction pattern warrants caution.
