The 5%ers is a forex & CFD broker based in United Kingdom, established in 2016. On Trust Broker Hub it holds a Trust Score of 2.4 out of 10, which we rate as Poor — below the 4.9/10 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. High-risk profile — proceed only with caution and small amounts.

We could not verify any regulatory licence for The 5%ers. 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.

The 5%ers provides access to Forex, indices, metals, commodities. Published conditions include leverage up to 1:100. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, The 5%ers carries a high-risk profile. Only consider it with money you can afford to lose, and verify everything independently first.

Editorial · updated 18 Aug 2026
Our analysis · editorial 2.4/10

High-risk profile

The 5%ers does not hold a verified regulatory licence on record. Based in United Kingdom, it has been operating for about 10 years. We have no complaints on record against it. Weighing regulation, track record and complaint history, our Trust Score is 2.4/10 — a high-risk profile.

Strengths
  • Long 10-year operating track record
  • No complaints on record with us
  • Supports MT5 trading
Watch-outs
  • No verified regulatory licence on record — funds may lack protection
Bottom line: High risk — we would avoid depositing significant funds until its regulation improves.

Frequently asked

Is The 5%ers a safe broker?
The 5%ers scores 2.4 / 10 on our Trust Score, below the 4.9 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. It has no verified tier-1 licence, raising risk. It has no complaints on record with us, though that is not proof of good conduct. Trade only with funds you can afford to lose.
What is the The 5%ers MT5 server name?
The 5%ers is listed in the MetaQuotes MetaTrader 5 directory under the server name "FivePercentOnline". 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 The 5%ers regulated?
MetaQuotes lists Five Percent Online Ltd with the status "Non-regulated". 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 The 5%ers 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 The 5%ers?
The 5%ers publishes some trading terms, but always confirm withdrawal fees directly. Test with a small amount first and document every transaction.
