Broker NPBFX has specific client protection measures and a regulatory structure.

NPBFX is regulated and operates under the jurisdiction of NMarkets Limited, a company registered in the island of Moheli (part of the Union of Comoros) and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. This means that the laws of these countries regulate the company.

In addition, NPBFX is a member of The Financial Commission, an independent international organization for dispute resolution. This protects the company's clients, as The Financial Commission ensures quick and professional resolution of disputes between the broker and trader. The compensation fund of this organization can pay compensations up to 20,000 euros per claim if the company refuses to comply with the decision of The Financial Commission.

However, it should be noted that the Union of Comoros and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines are generally considered offshore zones, and some people may see this as a risk since regulatory standards in such countries may not be as strict as, for example, in Europe or the USA.

The account opening process with the NPBFX broker appears simple and convenient. Registration on the website is done in a few steps and requires a minimum of information. Access to the personal account is granted after email and phone verification. Verification is necessary for funds withdrawal, a standard procedure for most brokers.

Official NPBFX Website

The official NPBFX website provides all the information a potential client-trader may need. Separate sections include:

• analytics for more convenient price forecasting;
• educational opportunities;
• trading conditions;
• sections on passive investing;
• promotions, bonuses, contests;
• general information about the company;
• partnership opportunities.

The site is available in 7 languages. Platform downloading is possible without registration, but a personal account is required for operation.

Registration

To enter the personal account, you must first register. To do this, click the corresponding button in the upper right corner of any page of the NPBFX website.

Next, a form opens for filling out with the minimum necessary information. Here, an actual phone and email are required in addition to the surname and name.

Client's Area

After registration and confirmation of email and phone, the client has access to most actions:

• opening accounts – either trading or demo;
• funding accounts;
• participation in promotions and contests;
• exploring trading ideas and recommendations on the analytical portal;
• trading.

However, to withdraw funds from your account, you must complete identity and address verification by uploading documents to the website.

Minimum Deposit

The minimum deposit at NPBFX broker varies depending on the type of trading account. For the "Master" account type, the minimum deposit is only 10 USD / 10 EUR / 500 RUB or 50 CNY for the "Master - Chinese Yuan" account. Opening cent accounts with a minimum deposit of 10 USD is also possible.

Among the account types offered by NPBFX, some options meet the needs of both beginners and experienced traders and those who want to invest or copy the trades of successful traders. The trading conditions, including minimum deposits, spreads, and leverage, are overall very competitive.

Trading Accounts

For Forex trading, NPBFX broker offers 7 trading accounts.

Automated trading is possible through the connection of expert advisors and the installation of trading robots on the platform. The company itself does not particularly emphasize this approach.

Who are the trading accounts suitable for?

1. Master. Designed for novice traders.

2. Zero. Aimed at traders with some experience.

3. Expert. Suitable for professionals.

4. VIP. Intended for highly experienced traders or investors.

5. Standard Cent and Zero Cent. Suitable for those who are just starting their journey in trading and want to understand the basics without risking large sums.

6. Master - Chinese Yuan. It is designed for traders from China or those who prefer to trade in yuan.

Cent Accounts

Cent Accounts are one of the trading accounts offered by the broker NPBFX. They are primarily intended for novice traders who want to gain practical experience in Forex trading without significant risks.

NPBFX offers 2 types of cent accounts:

1. Standard Cent.

2. Zero Cent.

The main advantage of cent accounts is that all transactions are conducted in cents, not dollars or euros. This allows the trader to manage larger volumes of funds without significant investments while still getting a realistic understanding of Forex trading.

On the other hand, profits on these accounts are also measured in cents, so they are unsuitable for those looking to make a significant profit quickly. However, they are perfect for novice traders who want to learn to trade without substantial financial risks.

Demo Account

Before starting actual trading, you can practice on a demo account. As with most real Forex brokers, it can be registered an unlimited number of times directly in the terminal. The second option is to create it through the personal account area.

There are 4 types of demo accounts available:

• Demo Master
• Demo Expert
• Demo VIP
• Demo Standard Cent

All demo accounts are equivalent to trading accounts in terms of performance.

Swap Free Account

A Swap-free or Islamic account is a trading account without swaps. The Swap Free service is provided to clients who cannot use swap operations due to religious beliefs.

To open an Islamic account:

1. open a regular trading account in your area;
2. send a request to info@npbfx.com with the subject line 'Activation of Swap Free service' and the message: "I, (state: Last Name First Name), request the activation of the Swap Free service for my trading account (state: trading account number).";
3. receive confirmation of the conversion of your trading account to Swap-Free terms.

Copy Trading Accounts

Signal accounts offered by the broker NPBFX:

Accounts for copying trades of successful traders are designed for those who want to trade in financial markets but lack the experience, time, or skills for independent analysis and making trading decisions. This can also be useful for diversifying their trading strategy or increasing their profitability.

Copying trades of successful traders allows clients to automatically copy the operations performed by professional traders and profit when they profit. Thus, even inexperienced traders can benefit from the knowledge and experience of professionals.

These accounts are suitable for a wide range of investors, from beginners who want to start trading without the need to learn the complex aspects of financial markets to experienced traders who wish to diversify their strategies and increase their profitability.

Contests

Regularly, there are demo account contests, such as "Traders' Battle," where the prize pool is 2500 US dollars, and a special prize is an iPhone 14 Pro. To win an award, one must place in the top 10.

Registration for contests and requests for promotions are done through the personal account or via phone and online operators.

NPBFX offers a balanced commission system, making it attractive for traders of various levels. The broker's spreads are competitive in the market. However, the trading commission per transaction is relatively high.

At the same time, it is worth noting that NPBFX does not charge an inactivity fee or withdrawal fees (only the payment providers' fees apply).

Trading Commission

On the Zero account, NPBFX has set a commission of $4 per entire lot. Compared to competitors, this commission is relatively high.

Below is the commission for opening 1 lot on the EURUSD pair at different Forex brokers:

Spreads and Swaps

The level of spreads offered by NPBFX is in the average range in the market. However, NPBFX's swaps are somewhat higher than those of most competitors.

Below are the average spreads and swaps of the broker for major currency pairs on the Master account.

Other Commissions

It is worth noting that NPBFX has several advantages regarding other commissions. Thus, the company does not charge an inactivity fee nor for withdrawals (payment systems charge), which is an essential plus in favor of NPBFX.

Cashback

NPBFX offers a unique opportunity for cashback on trading. By funding a trading account with at least 100 dollars, 100 euros, or 5000 rubles, a trader can receive payments to the account for each completed transaction. The cashback amount can reach up to 60% of the spread, equivalent to $7 per lot.

The advantage of this program is that the cashback is fully available for withdrawal and trading without any restrictions. The maximum payout is $10,000 monthly, and the minimum trade volume is just 0.01 lots.

It is important to note that cashback is credited only to Master type trading accounts. This offer allows traders to optimize their commission costs and increase their income.

Account funding and withdrawal options at NPBFX are represented by a wide range of methods, including bank cards, electronic wallets, cryptocurrencies, and bank transfers. This provides traders with multiple options depending on their personal preferences and needs.

However, it is essential to consider the high commission charged by payment systems for withdrawals and the potentially long processing time for withdrawal requests.

How to Fund Your Account

Account funding occurs after you have registered your account. Therefore, first, you need to select "Trading Account" in the left column of your area, then decide which type of account suits you. The terminal can be downloaded either before or after this.

All funding methods are available only after the client has passed verification, i.e., confirmed their identity and address with the appropriate documents.
