Depositing more than US$9000 (or equivalent)?
If you want to deposit more than US$9,000 or equivalent into your account, you must provide further documentation, like a passport, current bank statement or similar, as outlined on our open an account page.
You can upload these documents directly through your portal as an existing client. If you are a new client, please email your documentation to frontdesk@oanda.com, where our onboarding team will review your documents. If approved, we’ll notify you that funding restrictions have been removed from your account.
Trade without swap or interest
Our swap-free account does not subject your open trades to overnight swap or interest charges/credits.
Transparent trading costs
We are upfront about our fees so you know how much you are paying when you trade with us.
