What Wikilix has recorded about AYA Markets: its history, the licences it holds, its trading conditions and its fees.
AYA Markets is a forex and CFD broker operating under AYA Markets (Comoros) Ltd, a company registered in the Comoros and trading since April 2023. It offers MetaTrader 5 and cTrader across desktop, web and mobile, with leverage of up to 1:1000, variable spreads and an ECN execution model. The instrument range covers 45 forex pairs, 89 CFDs and 33 cryptocurrencies. Its regulatory standing is offshore only, and that is the single most important thing for a prospective client to weigh.
The operating entity is AYA Markets (Comoros) Ltd, registered at Bonovo Road, Fomboni, on the island of Mohéli in the Comoros Union, under company number HY00423002. The broker holds an offshore International Brokerage licence numbered T2023263, recorded on the register of the offshore registrar on Mohéli, with a published term running from May 2023 to May 2025.
That licence is the whole of its regulatory cover. AYA Markets holds no authorisation from any major onshore regulator, and the body that issued its licence supervises no trading conduct, enforces no audited segregation of client money, and operates neither an investor compensation scheme nor a complaints mechanism.
AYA Markets is licensed offshore only and is not regulated in any major financial jurisdiction. The distinction matters in practice: an offshore brokerage licence of this kind confirms that a company exists and has paid for a permission, but it carries none of the capital requirements, client money rules, reporting obligations or dispute resolution that an onshore licence brings with it. A company registration is not a trading licence either, and the Comoros registration number above should not be read as one.
Safety here rests on the broker's own conduct rather than on any external protection, and a client should size their exposure on that basis. Four points in the record bear on it. The only licence on file is offshore and carries no compensation scheme and no ombudsman, so there is no external route to recover money if the broker stops paying. The register shows that licence active, while the two year term printed against it ended in May 2025. The company has been trading only since 2023. And the broker publishes no telephone number, which leaves email, live chat and a Telegram channel as the routes to it. None of that is evidence of wrongdoing, but it does mean the practical protection available to a client is thin. In its assessment of 15 September 2026, WIKILIX rates AYA Markets high risk, with a 48% risk score, and found no evidence of fraud.
AYA Markets offers three live account tiers, which differ in how they charge rather than in what they give access to. The Zero account is commission free. The Pro account charges $4.00 per lot per side, and the Raw account $8.00 per lot per side. All three carry the same maximum leverage as each other and the same per lot commission on either platform, though the leverage cap itself is set by the platform rather than by the tier. No minimum deposit is published for any of the tiers, so the practical entry point is set by the funding method instead.
Spreads are variable rather than fixed, and the broker publishes no representative average, so the cost of a given trade cannot be established in advance from its own material. Commission is the part of its pricing that is explicit: nothing on the Zero account, $4.00 per lot per side on Pro and $8.00 per lot per side on Raw. On the funding side, AYA Markets charges no deposit or withdrawal commission on the card, electronic payment and cryptocurrency methods it lists.
Maximum leverage is 1:1000 on MetaTrader 5, applied uniformly across the three account tiers. On cTrader the cap is 1:100, so the platform an account is opened on, rather than the tier chosen, decides the maximum exposure available. Leverage of that size is characteristic of offshore brokers and is not permitted under most onshore regimes, and it magnifies losses on the same scale as gains.
AYA Markets runs MetaTrader 5 and cTrader. Both are available as a desktop build for Windows and macOS, in the browser, and on Android and iOS, and both are downloadable from the broker's own platform pages. The account tiers, the instrument range and the commission are the same on each, so the one difference that matters in choosing between them is the leverage cap.
Funding is concentrated in cryptocurrency and electronic payment methods. AYA Markets accepts Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Tether on both the TRON and Ethereum networks, alongside card payments by Visa, Mastercard and Apple Pay and the TopChange electronic payment service. Card deposits start at $20 and the lowest electronic and stablecoin minimums are $10. Deposits are generally credited immediately, withdrawal requests are processed within 24 hours on business days, and no commission is charged on either leg.
Two conditions matter before you fund an account. Withdrawals must be taken back through the method used to deposit, which is standard anti money laundering practice. And on several cryptocurrencies the withdrawal minimum sits well above the deposit minimum, notably 0.001 BTC against a 0.0001 BTC deposit floor and 0.25 LTC against 0.0001 LTC. Bank transfer is not currently offered, and several electronic wallets the broker previously listed, including Perfect Money and Advcash, no longer appear among its published methods.
Support is available in English only, Monday to Friday from 6:00 am to 4:00 pm GMT, by email at support@ayamarkets.com, by live chat during those hours and through a Telegram channel. AYA Markets publishes no telephone number, so there is no voice route to the firm if an account or a withdrawal needs escalating.
AYA Markets is a young offshore broker with a competent technical offering and very little behind it in the way of client protection. The platform side is the stronger part: two mature platforms, transparent commission and low funding minimums. The weakness is structural rather than a matter of execution, and no feature of the trading offering offsets it. Anyone considering an account should treat the money deposited as exposed to the firm itself, size it accordingly, and check the current standing of licence T2023263 before funding.
AYA Markets's typical spread on EURUSD is 1.91 pips, measured on a real trading account. We read every price the broker sends and weight each spread by how long it actually held — across 10 instruments and 42.7M quotes so far.

Above 3.00 pips the scale compresses, so one rollover window does not flatten the rest. The widest reading in view is 9.65 pips.

Common questions about AYA Markets
AYA Markets is operated by AYA Markets (Comoros) Ltd, a company registered in the Comoros under number HY00423002 at Bonovo Road, Fomboni, on the island of Mohéli. It has been trading since April 2023. A company registration is not a financial licence and should not be read as one.
AYA Markets covers 45 forex pairs, 89 CFDs and 33 cryptocurrencies, on an ECN execution model. The same instrument range is available on both platforms and on all three account tiers.
Commission is the explicit part of the pricing: nothing per lot on AYA Zero, 4 USD per lot per side on AYA Pro and 8 USD per lot per side on AYA Raw, the same on MetaTrader 5 and cTrader. Spreads are variable rather than fixed and the broker publishes no representative average, so the spread component of a trade cannot be established in advance from its own material. Nothing is charged on deposits or withdrawals.
There are three live tiers: AYA Zero, AYA Pro and AYA Raw. They differ in how they charge rather than in what they give access to, at nothing, 4 USD and 8 USD per lot per side respectively, and all three carry the same instrument range and the same 1:1000 maximum on MetaTrader 5. No minimum deposit is published for any of them.
AYA Markets offers MetaTrader 5 and cTrader. Both run as a desktop application for Windows and macOS, in the browser and on Android and iOS, and both are downloadable from the broker's own platform pages. The account tiers and the per lot commission are the same on each, but the leverage cap is not: MetaTrader 5 goes up to 1:1000 and cTrader is capped at 1:100.
AYA Markets publishes no minimum deposit for any of its three account tiers, so in practice the entry point is set by the funding method rather than by the account. The lowest minimums are 10 USD by the TopChange electronic payment service and 10 USDT on the TRON network, while card and Apple Pay deposits start at 20 USD.
AYA Markets states that withdrawal requests are processed within 24 hours on business days, and that the time for the money to arrive after that depends on the payment method used. Because the support desk runs Monday to Friday only, a request sent over a weekend will not be picked up until the next business day.
AYA Markets asks for a valid photo ID, either a passport or a national ID card, plus a proof of address such as a utility bill or bank statement that is no more than three months old. The broker sets out both requirements on its support page.
No. AYA Markets charges no commission on either leg, on every payment method it publishes: Visa and Mastercard, Apple Pay, the TopChange electronic payment service, and Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Tether. What applies instead of a fee is a pair of conditions. The first withdrawal has to be taken back through the method used to deposit, and on several cryptocurrencies the withdrawal minimum sits above the deposit minimum, for example 0.001 BTC against a 0.0001 BTC deposit floor.
AYA Markets accepts card payments by Visa and Mastercard, Apple Pay, the TopChange electronic payment service, and four cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Tether on both the TRON and Ethereum networks. The lowest entry points are 10 USD by TopChange and 10 USDT on the TRON network, while card and Apple Pay deposits start at 20 USD. Bank transfer is not offered, and deposits are generally credited immediately.
AYA Markets can be reached by email at support@ayamarkets.com, by live chat, through a support ticket raised from the Helpdesk menu after signing in to the client portal, and on its Telegram channel. Support is staffed Monday to Friday from 6:00 am to 4:00 pm GMT, so a message sent outside those hours waits for the next working day. The broker publishes no telephone number, so there is no voice route to it if an account or a withdrawal needs escalating.
The maximum is 1:1000, and it applies to accounts opened on MetaTrader 5. On cTrader the cap is 1:100, so the same account tier offers a different maximum depending on which platform it is opened on. Leverage at the 1:1000 level is not permitted under most onshore regimes, and it magnifies losses on the same scale as gains.
AYA Markets is not regulated by any major financial authority. Its only regulatory cover is an offshore International Brokerage licence, number T2023263, recorded on the register of the offshore registrar on the island of Mohéli in the Comoros, with a published two year term running from May 2023 to May 2025. A licence of that kind confirms a permission was issued, but it carries none of the capital requirements, client money rules or investor compensation arrangements an onshore licence brings, and the issuing body operates no complaints mechanism.
