ICMarkets is a cryptocurrency exchange based in China, established in 2007. On Trust Broker Hub it holds a Trust Score of 1.2 out of 10, which we rate as Unrated — below the 4.9/10 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. Too little verified information to rate — that is not a warning about this firm, and not a green light either.

We could not verify any regulatory licence for ICMarkets. Trading with an unregulated broker is high-risk — your funds are not protected by any authority, and there is no official body to turn to if withdrawals are blocked or the broker disappears. We strongly recommend a regulated alternative from the list on this page.

ICMarkets provides access to Foreign exchange, indices, metals, energy. Its detailed trading conditions — minimum deposit, spreads and maximum leverage — are not publicly disclosed, which lowers transparency. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, we hold too little verified information about ICMarkets to say whether it is safe. Verify its licence with the regulator directly before depositing anything.

Transparency no trading-terms feed for exchanges 2.0 / 10 × 20%
Footprint track record 4.0 / 10 × 15%

Data completeness 1 of 5 facts verified 20%  ×0.60
Trust Score 1.2 / 10

We could verify only 1 of 5 facts about ICMarkets, so its score is scaled down. A missing licence, undisclosed trading terms or no track record cannot earn marks — absence of bad news is not evidence of safety.

Our verdict on ICMarkets

Editorial · updated 03 Oct 2026
Our analysis · editorial 1.2/10

Not enough verified information to rate

ICMarkets does not hold a verified regulatory licence on record. Based in China, it has been operating for about 19 years. We hold too little verified information about ICMarkets to publish a verdict on it. Its Trust Score of 1.2/10 reflects that absence of evidence, not any finding against the firm — and it is not a clean bill of health either.

Strengths
  • Long 19-year operating track record
  • Supports cTrader trading
Watch-outs
  • No verified regulatory licence on record — funds may lack protection
Bottom line: We cannot vouch for this firm either way. Verify its licence with the regulator directly before depositing anything.

Frequently asked

Is ICMarkets a safe broker?
We hold too little verified information about ICMarkets to answer that. We have no regulatory licence, no published trading terms and no trader reviews on file for it, which is why it scores 1.2 / 10 — that reflects what we could not verify, not a finding against the firm. Having nothing on record is not evidence that it is safe. Verify its licence with the regulator directly before depositing anything.
What is the ICMarkets MT5 server name?
ICMarkets is listed in the MetaQuotes MetaTrader 5 directory under the server names "ICMarketsInternational", "ICMarketsEU" and "ICMarketsKE". In MetaTrader 5, add an account and search for that name, then choose the exact server shown in your account details from the broker. Read our methodology.
Is ICMarkets regulated?
MetaQuotes lists IC Markets Ltd, IC Markets (EU) Ltd and IC Markets (KE) Limited with the status "Regulation: Bahamas; Regulation: Cyprus; Regulation: Kenya". That is the broker's own declaration to MetaQuotes, not a licence we have checked. We hold no verified licence for it, so check the regulator's own register before depositing.
How is the ICMarkets trust score calculated?
The score weighs five factors: regulation tier, transparency of disclosures, operating footprint, user sentiment, and complaint history. Each is scored out of 10 and combined into the overall figure shown at the top.
What does "offshore regulated" mean?
It means the broker's licence comes from a jurisdiction with lighter requirements than tier-1 regulators like the FCA or ASIC. There's usually no compensation scheme, so recovering funds can be difficult if the broker fails.
Can I withdraw funds easily from ICMarkets?
ICMarkets doesn't publish detailed withdrawal terms, so we can't verify processing times or fees. Test with a small amount first and document every transaction.
