Trader Review Policy: Rules for Broker Reviews on FX Recap

Trader reviews let readers share their own experience with a broker. They are the opinions of the people who wrote them, not FX Recap's, and every review is checked by our team before it appears. By submitting a review you agree to the rules below.

Last updated

What a review must be

  • Your own experience with the broker, on a live, demo or former account.
  • Honest and independent. You are not employed, paid or rewarded by the broker or by a competitor.
  • About the broker's service: accounts, deposits and withdrawals, platforms, costs and support.
  • One review per broker from the same email address in any month.
  • In plain words, without web links, phone numbers or contact details.

Reviews we do not publish

Unproven accusations

Statements that a broker or a named person committed fraud, theft or another crime, unless the review links to an official regulator warning or court decision.

Personal information

Names, account numbers, emails, phone numbers or documents of staff, other clients or yourself.

Abuse

Insults, threats, hate speech or harassment of anyone.

Fake or paid reviews

Reviews written for a reward, by a broker's staff or affiliates, or posted to damage a competitor.

Advertising and spam

Promotions, referral codes, signal-selling and links.

Legal disputes

Detailed allegations in an ongoing legal case. Take these to the broker's regulator or the courts.

How moderation works

  1. Before publication

    Each review is saved as pending and appears only after a member of our team approves it. We may reject a review that breaks these rules, and we may remove an approved review later if it is reported and found to break them.

  2. We do not edit opinions

    We do not rewrite a reviewer's opinion or change a star rating. A review is published as written or not at all.

  3. Records

    We keep a record of when each review was submitted and when it was approved or rejected.

How to report a review

  1. Use the Report button

    Every published review has a Report button. Reported reviews are checked again by our team.

  2. For a formal complaint

    If a review is about you or your company and you believe it is false or unlawful, use the contact form and choose Correction request, or email [email protected] with "Review complaint" in the subject. Include the page link, the reviewer's name as shown and the reason. We reply within 24 hours on working days and may hide the review while we look into it.

  3. Brokers

    Brokers cannot buy, remove or change reviews. A broker that believes a review breaks these rules can report it in the same way. We do not take reviews down because they are negative.

Your details

  1. What is shown

    Your review, star rating, display name, country and account type are published. Your email address is never shown and is used only to check your review.

  2. Removing your review

    You can ask us to remove your own review at any time from the email address you used. See our privacy policy for your data rights.

Responsibility for reviews

  1. Reviewers' own views

    • Reviews are the personal opinions of their authors and do not represent the views of FX Recap or its team.
    • Reviewers are responsible for what they write and confirm, when submitting, that it is their own honest experience.
    • Reviews do not change FX Recap's own broker ratings, which follow our broker methodology.
