IUX's trading accounts page lists a minimum deposit of $30 for its Standard account and $200 for both the Raw and Pro accounts. The minimum withdrawal is $10 on all three. IUX says it charges nothing for deposits or withdrawals, though your bank or payment provider may add its own fee.
Accounts are held in US dollars. When you deposit in your local currency, IUX converts the amount to USD at the exchange rate at the time of the transaction, so a deposit in rupees, pesos or naira lands as a dollar balance.
| Standard | $30 minimum deposit |
|---|---|
| Raw | $200 minimum deposit |
| Pro | $200, same as Raw |
| Minimum withdrawal | $10 on every account |
| IUX deposit fee | None |
| Account currency | USD (local money converted) |
Minimums by account type
| Account | Minimum deposit | Spread from | Commission per lot |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $30 | 0.2 pips | $0 |
| Raw | $200 | 0.0 pips | $7 |
| Pro | $200 | 0.1 pips | $0 |
The $30 Standard account is the cheapest way in, but it has the widest starting spread. Raw and Pro cost more to open and are aimed at active traders. Our IUX account types guide compares them in detail.
How to deposit
- Log in to the IUX website or the IUX Trade App.
- Click the Wallet icon at the top right and choose Deposit, or open Trading Accounts and click Deposit on an account card.
- Pick the trading account and a payment method, then click Next.
- Enter the amount in your local currency and submit.
- Complete the payment; IUX emails a confirmation and credits the balance once the payment succeeds.
IUX's Help Center says your profile should be fully verified before you deposit: proof of identity, proof of address and proof of bank. The name on the paying account must match the name on your IUX profile. Third-party deposits, such as money sent from a friend's or relative's account, aren't accepted.
Deposit methods and times
| Method | Notes | Typical time |
|---|---|---|
| Visa or Mastercard | Card must be in your name | Instant to 10 minutes |
| Local bank transfer and QR | Depends on your country | Instant to 10 minutes |
| Neteller and Skrill | Deposits and withdrawals | Usually minutes |
IUX's payment page says it supports 20+ payment methods, but the list you see depends on your country and verification status. Log in to the client dashboard to see exactly which methods are open to you. Its Help Center says most deposits are instant, with some methods taking up to 24 hours.
If your deposit doesn't show up
IUX lists four common reasons for a deposit that hasn't been credited: money sent from an account in someone else's name; a deposit made during bank maintenance, often late at night or at weekends; an expired or reused QR code; and closing the app or browser tab before the success message appears. If nothing has arrived after 20 to 30 minutes, check the balance on the Trading Accounts page, refresh once and wait a few minutes.
Still missing? Send support your trading account number, the full receipt showing the transaction ID, date and time, and your registered email. IUX handles these through a ticket or by email at [email protected].
Always generate a new QR code for each deposit. IUX says an old or reused code is one of the main reasons a payment isn't recognised automatically.
How much should you deposit?
A minimum lets you open the account; it doesn't make a sensible trading balance. With IUX's high leverage, a $30 Standard account can open positions far bigger than the money behind it, and a small move against you can reach the 20% stop out level quickly. Starting with enough to risk 1% or 2% per trade on a 0.01-lot position is more realistic for most new traders.
Keep in mind the minimums on internal transfers too. Moving money from a Standard account to a Raw or Pro account needs at least $200 per transfer, because that is the minimum for those accounts. Transfers between Raw and Pro, or between two Standard accounts, have no minimum.
Does IUX offer a deposit bonus?
IUX's Help Center says it doesn't offer permanent deposit bonuses, such as 100% bonuses with high trading turnover requirements. It runs its LotBack rewards program instead, which pays points based on lots traded, and occasional campaigns. Our IUX promotion page covers LotBack tiers and conditions.
Deposits at weekends and on holidays
IUX accepts deposit requests 24/7, including weekends and public holidays. Banks and payment providers don't always work the same hours, though, so a transfer made on a Sunday or a holiday can take longer to confirm than one made on a weekday. If you need money in the account before a particular session, deposit a day early.
Cards must be Visa or Mastercard issued in your own name. IUX says it doesn't charge for card deposits but isn't responsible for delays or fees from your bank, so check if your card issuer treats the payment as an international transaction.
Your first deposit also decides how quickly you can use other IUX features. Raw and Pro need $200 each, so a trader who deposits $250 can open one of them, while $30 only opens a Standard account. Since internal transfers from Standard to Raw or Pro need at least $200, topping up a Standard account later and moving funds across works too.
IUX's $30 Standard minimum is fine for testing withdrawals and platforms. For real trading, the Raw account's $200 start and $7 commission usually works out cheaper for anyone trading more than a few lots a month.
Ifeanyi verified his ID, address and bank account first, then deposited the naira equivalent of $250 through a local bank transfer. It was converted to US dollars and credited in a few minutes. He put $200 into a Raw account and kept $50 in a Standard account to test withdrawals.
