CAMEL INTERNATIONAL: FSA licence SD074

Currency pairs, precious metals, crude oil and index products. The homepage puts the total at 45 instruments across foreign exchange, futures and precious metals, while another page on the same site advertises 2,000 financial instruments. Treat the smaller, more specific figure as the reliable one until the broker reconciles the two.

The broker's own risk disclosure states it does not offer CFDs to residents of the United States, Iran and Canada. It publishes no wider restricted-country list.

The contact page lists two: the Seychelles registered office at Suite 3, Global Village, Jivan's Complex, Mont Fleuri, Mahe, and an address in Cyprus at Archiepiskopou Makariou III, 14 ground floor, shop 2, 3060, Limassol. The Cyprus presence is an office address only; the broker claims no Cypriot authorisation and none was found.

WIKILIX found no confirmed proof of fraud, so we do not call it a scam. We do rate it high risk and unverified: it holds no forex licence from any authority, it describes itself as a licensed broker without supporting that word, and its marketing copy contradicts itself on instrument counts and leverage. Money placed with an unlicensed offshore counterparty has no regulator to appeal to and no compensation scheme behind it.

The broker says withdrawal requests are approved instantly on its side, with anything not instant processed within 24 hours, and that funds can then take up to 48 hours to reach a bank account depending on the card processor and country. Withdrawals are only permitted to a payment account held in the client's own name, and money cannot be withdrawn from a demo account.

The broker's funding page describes bank card deposits and withdrawals, available 24/5. It states there is no deposit fee and that it absorbs third-party transaction fees on withdrawals. No specific card schemes, bank wire details, e-wallets or crypto channels are named, and no minimum or maximum transaction amounts are published.

• ECN ACCOUNT - commission of $4 per lot per side, minimum lot 0.01, maximum leverage 1:200
• STANDARD ACCOUNT - 0 fees, minimum lot 0.01, maximum leverage 1:200
• MINI ACCOUNT - 0 fees, minimum lot 0.01, maximum leverage 1:200

The broker does not publish an account currency, a spread table or a per-account minimum deposit.

MetaTrader 5 only. The broker publishes a Windows desktop installer and describes a web terminal and a mobile app for Android and iOS. There is no MetaTrader 4 offering and no proprietary platform.

The account-type page quotes a maximum of 1:200 on all three accounts. The homepage separately advertises 100:1. The two figures on the broker's own site do not agree, so confirm the applicable leverage in writing before funding an account. Leverage at this level magnifies losses as much as gains and is not available from regulated brokers in many jurisdictions.

The homepage advertises a minimum deposit amount of $100 with no deposit fee. The individual account pages do not restate a per-account minimum, so the $100 figure should be treated as the account-opening threshold.

The brand is operated by Camel International Limited, a company limited by shares incorporated in the Seychelles under registration number C8426166, with its registered office at Suite 3, Global Village, Jivan's Complex, Mont Fleuri, Mahe, Seychelles. The official registry record shows the entity is active and that it previously traded as QDM International Limited. No directors or beneficial owners are disclosed on the website.

No. CAMEL INTERNATIONAL publishes no licence number and names no financial regulator anywhere on its website, and WIKILIX found no forex authorisation held by the operating company. Its Seychelles company registration (number C8426166) proves the company exists; it is not permission to take client deposits and gives clients none of the protections a licence carries.
