Safeguarding Your Funds
Our Partner systems adhere to the ISO 27001:2022 standards and are committed to continuously enhancing our processes to maintain robust security.
Your funds are stored in specifically designated, safeguarded bank accounts, segregating them from operational assets. This provides an extra layer of security, backed by our banking partners, ensuring that your money remains safeguarded, even in the unlikely event of unforeseen circumstances.
Actions are carried out based solely on explicit, direct instructions from you, accompanied by transparent, readily available notifications at each stage of the process.
No Speculation
Ensuring the safety of your business is a top priority. Great pride is taken in security protocols designed to safeguard your transactions. Our Partner’s systems adhere to all regulations established by relevant authorities, ensuring the protection of both you and your funds. This guarantees no engagement in market speculation with your money; all funds are allocated either against a specific trade or reserved for a future date.

The platform undergoes frequent vulnerability assessment testing and has countermeasures in place against prevalent threats such as code injection and cross-site scripting assaults.
