ALPHA TRADE has one licence on record with Wikilix, issued by one authority across one jurisdiction. One of them was issued by a tier-1 or tier-2 authority — the regimes with the strictest capital, reporting and client-money rules. None has yet been located on an issuing authority’s own register, so every entry here should be read as claimed rather than confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about the licences held by ALPHA TRADE
Answered from the register entries on this page.
Most Popular Questions
Not on the current evidence. A registered Australian company and a licence number are meaningful, but there is no readable website, no platform, no funding process and no published terms. Better-documented Australian-regulated alternatives exist, and there is no informational cost to waiting until this operator publishes a working service.
Australian financial services rules require client money to be held in segregated accounts, but no client-money or banking disclosure from this operator could be read, and Australia runs no compensation scheme comparable to a deposit-guarantee fund for CFD losses. Segregation should be confirmed in writing before depositing.
No restricted-country list or client-onboarding jurisdiction list is published, so we cannot say. Australian-licensed derivative issuers are generally barred from onboarding United States residents, and an operator that accepts clients from anywhere without disclosing restrictions is a reason for caution.
The contact points on record are the phone number +61 (0)2 9037 3890 and the email cs@alphatrade.com.au. There is a LinkedIn company page and an account on X. No live chat, no support hours and no service-level commitment are published.
The corporate entity is long established: the Australian Business Register shows Alpha Trade Pty Ltd active since 28 April 2000, and the associated licence dates from 2003. The retail trading brand itself is presented as much younger, launched around 2020, so corporate age and brand age are not the same thing here.
No commission schedule is published, and no account-level pricing could be read. Any pricing claim you see quoted for this brand elsewhere should be checked against the broker's own signed client agreement before you fund an account.
The brand is presented as offering forex, commodities and digital-asset contracts for difference. No instrument counts, contract specifications or swap rates are published, so the breadth of the offering cannot be checked.
No deposit or withdrawal channels, fees, limits or processing times are published. Because no funding page could be read, we cannot say whether cards, bank transfers, e-wallets or crypto are accepted, and we cannot comment on withdrawal speed.
None could be confirmed. We found no MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5 or cTrader server, no proprietary web terminal and no mobile app download link attributable to the brand. For a broker, an unidentifiable trading platform is a material gap.
Not disclosed. No maximum leverage is published. Note that an Australian retail derivatives service is subject to Australian retail leverage limits, so any offer of very high leverage to Australian retail clients would itself be a warning sign.
Not disclosed. No minimum deposit figure is published anywhere we could read, so we have left the field empty rather than quote a number we could not source.
We found no proof of fraud, and the company behind the brand is genuinely registered in Australia. What we did find is an absence of everything a working broker publishes: no reachable website, no platform, no funding channels, no account terms and no fee schedule. That combination is high risk rather than confirmed fraud, so our verdict is high risk and unverified.
The operating legal entity is Alpha Trade Pty Ltd, an Australian private company, ACN 055 971 232 / ABN 16 055 971 232, registered address Level 16, 175 Pitt Street, Sydney, NSW 2000. The Australian Business Register shows the ABN active from 28 April 2000 and records an earlier name, INTEQ LIMITED. No individual owner or director is disclosed publicly by the brand.
ALPHA TRADE has one licence record with Wikilix, issued by one authority across one jurisdiction. A licence on record means an authority published an entry; it is not an endorsement, and Wikilix does not issue authorisations.
ALPHA TRADE holds licence records issued by ASIC. Each authority’s own record — its tier, jurisdiction and client-protection rules — is linked from this page.
One of the licence records held by ALPHA TRADE comes from tier-1 or tier-2 authorities (1 tier-1, 0 tier-2). Those regimes set the strictest capital, reporting and client-money requirements.
Not yet. None of the one licence record held by ALPHA TRADE has been located on an issuing authority’s register, so each should be read as claimed rather than confirmed. Every record links to the official register so you can check it yourself.
ALPHA TRADE has licence records in Australia. A licence applies in the jurisdiction that issued it; it does not by itself cover clients elsewhere.
