What Wikilix has recorded about Exelium: its history, the licences it holds, its trading conditions and its fees.
Exelium is the trading brand of Exelium Ltd, a company incorporated in Anguilla under registration number A000001254 and registered at No.8 Cassius Webster Building, Grace Complex, The Valley, AI-2640. The brand began operating in 2023 and trades through a single platform, MetaTrader 5, across forex, metals, energies, indices, shares and cryptocurrencies. Entry is deliberately low, with the Classic account opening at 5 USD and headline leverage reaching 1:5000 on one specialised tier.
The group runs two websites under one brand. is the retail site, operated by the Anguilla company, and belongs to Exelium Global Ltd, a Seychelles company that holds the group's only financial licence and sells a single institutional account. Which company a client contracts with depends on which site they register through, and the two sites carry different client agreements.
One financial licence exists in the group. Exelium Global Ltd holds Securities Dealer licence SD238 from the Seychelles Financial Services Authority. The licence was active on the authority's own register on 12 September 2026. It is disclosed on exeliumglobal.com, which states that Exelium Global Ltd is authorised and regulated by the FSA in Seychelles under licence number SD238.
The licence covers the Seychelles company only. Exelium Ltd, the Anguilla company named as the operator on both sites and as the client's counterparty in the retail client agreement, holds no financial licence of its own. Anguilla registration A000001254 is a company registration, which records that the company exists and is not financial regulation of its trading business. Seychelles is a light touch offshore jurisdiction with no retail compensation scheme, so the licence that does exist carries limited client protection even for the company that holds it.
Partly, and not where client money is taken. The company behind the retail site, Exelium Ltd in Anguilla, holds no financial licence, while the group's Seychelles company is licensed under SD238. A client who deposits through exelium.com is contracting with the Anguilla company, so the Seychelles licence does not extend to that relationship.
The split between the two companies matters beyond regulation, because each publishes its own client agreement and the two point in different directions. The Anguilla agreement sets the competent courts as the courts of Anguilla, and the Seychelles agreement sets them as the courts of Seychelles. The Seychelles document also carries the undertaking to keep client money segregated from the company's own funds, and an escalation route to the Seychelles FSA where a complaint is not resolved. Neither appears in the Anguilla agreement that governs the retail site.
Costs diverge as well. The Anguilla agreement charges an inactivity fee of up to 5 USD every six months after six months without trading activity, while the Seychelles agreement sets that fee at up to 10 USD annually.
Exelium carries real structural risk, chiefly because the licensed company is not the one that takes retail deposits. Against that, the brand operates openly: it publishes its registered office, its registration number, a full client agreement, a complaints procedure and its account terms, and the one licence in the group is current on the Seychelles register. The operating history is short, dating from 2023.
The retail client agreement also reserves powers worth reading before funding an account. Exelium is the contractual counterparty to its clients and sets its quotes at its absolute discretion. It may vary margin and leverage without prior notice, may void trades and cancel profit it judges to arise from abusive strategies, which it defines to include scalping and high frequency trading, and may apply a penalty of 10 per cent of the client's deposit, with a minimum of 25 USD, where it suspects such behaviour. A separate clause prohibits the use of any software or system employing artificial intelligence or similar analytical technology with the platform, and allows the company to withhold profits generated that way.
Four retail tiers are sold on exelium.com and one institutional account on exeliumglobal.com.
Stop out is 20 per cent on the three main retail tiers, 40 per cent on Powerful Leverage and 80 per cent on the FIX Account, with a 100 per cent margin call and a 0.01 lot minimum throughout. A demo account is available, and the four retail tiers can be converted to swap free. That conversion is limited: Exelium states it remains available for three consecutive calendar days on forex majors and gold, after which swap charges apply, and the client agreement allows the company to reverse profits accumulated from swap free trading and to charge the fees retrospectively.
Exelium separately sells prop trading challenges by subscription, priced from 36 USD to 10,500 USD with starting balances from 5,000 USD to 500,000 USD. These are bought rather than funded by deposit and are not account tiers. Leverage on them is far below the retail offer, at 1:100 on forex during a challenge and 1:30 on the resulting funded account.
Spreads are variable, starting at 1 pip on Classic, 0.0 pips on Premium Spread and VIP and 1.6 pips on Powerful Leverage. Commission depends on instrument class and tier: nothing on Classic, 5 USD per lot on Premium Spread and 3 USD per lot on VIP for forex and metals; nothing on energies at any tier; 15, 10 and 8 USD per lot on agricultural commodities; 0.10 per cent on cryptocurrencies; and 0.15 or 0.10 per cent on index and commodity futures.
Two caveats belong with those figures. The client agreement's own fee clause describes commission as applying only to CFDs on futures and CFDs on shares, which is narrower than the forex and metals commission the accounts page charges. And the agreement sets no price list at all, stating that the company is entitled to change its charges without any consultation or prior consent from the client. An inactivity fee of up to 5 USD applies every six months after six months without trading activity, and a currency conversion cost applies to realised profits and losses denominated in a currency other than the account's base currency.
The advertised maximum of 1:5000 is a first lot rate on the Powerful Leverage account rather than a flat cap. It steps down as volume rises, to 1:2000 above one lot, 1:1000 above two lots, 1:500 above ten and progressively to 1:10 above 500 lots. The other retail tiers cap at 1:3000 and the institutional FIX Account at 1:100. The client agreement allows Exelium to set and vary margin and leverage levels without prior notice.
MetaTrader 5 is the only platform, on either site. Exelium publishes its own branded Windows installer together with macOS, Android and iOS builds, and runs a browser terminal at . Hedging and expert advisors are advertised as supported, and the client agreement separately prohibits the use of artificial intelligence or similar analytical technology with the platform. exeliumglobal.com publishes no platform page or download, so the institutional FIX Account is sold without a published connection guide.
Three payment channels are published, and Exelium identifies each only by its logo without stating what kind of service it is. Local Depositor takes deposits from 10 USD instantly and processes withdrawals from 5 USD in one to three hours. TCPAY takes 5 USD each way and is instant in both directions, which is what makes the 5 USD Classic minimum reachable. Toolb takes 25 USD each way and is also instant both ways. The funding table states no deposit fee and no withdrawal fee against all three.
Those statements should be read against the client agreement, which has no deposits and withdrawals section at all. It sets no withdrawal minimum, maximum, method or timetable. Its refund clause returns money to the card originally used and quotes about two to three weeks to reach the client's bank, then disposes of everything else by providing that all other requests are treated as normal withdrawals and processed in line with the company's own policies and procedures, which are not published on either site. The company may deduct all amounts due to it before transferring any credit balance, and may set off liabilities at any time without notice. Cryptocurrencies are tradable instruments at Exelium but are not one of its funding channels.
Support runs through a live chat widget carried on every page, the address support@exelium.com, and one telephone number, +1-758-572-5128. Exelium publishes no support hours, no time zone and no response time commitment anywhere on its site. Complaints go to complaints@exelium.com or by post to the Anguilla registered office, and the agreement promises written acknowledgement within seven business days, a final response targeted at 30 business days and provided within 60 business days at the latest. The site carries no FAQ, help centre or knowledge base.
One practical detail: the registered office is in Anguilla, while the published telephone number and the second address on the contact page, Suite Number 1 at Place Creole, Rodney Bay, Gros Islet, are both in Saint Lucia.
On the positive side, the entry point is very low at 5 USD and one payment channel genuinely supports it, the Classic tier charges no commission, MetaTrader 5 is offered on every major device including a browser terminal, and the licence in the group is current on the Seychelles register.
Against that, the licensed company is not the one that takes retail deposits, the Anguilla operator holds only a company registration, the headline 1:5000 leverage is a first lot rate rather than a cap, the agreement publishes no price list and permits charges to change without consent, the swap free facility lasts three days and its profits can be reversed, the three payment channels are named only by logo, and no support hours are published.
Exelium is a young offshore broker built around a single platform, a very low minimum deposit and unusually high advertised leverage. The commercial offer is coherent and reasonably well documented, with tiers, spreads, commissions and stop out levels all published, and the group does hold a current Seychelles Securities Dealer licence.
The consideration that matters most before funding an account is which company the client is actually dealing with. Registering through exelium.com means contracting with Exelium Ltd in Anguilla, which holds no financial licence, under an agreement that points disputes to the courts of Anguilla, carries no segregation undertaking and names no external body to escalate an unresolved complaint to. The licence, the segregation promise and the regulator escalation route all sit with Exelium Global Ltd in Seychelles. Anyone drawn by the 1:5000 headline should read it as a first lot rate, and read the agreement's powers over quotes, leverage, profit cancellation and penalty fees alongside it.

| Method | Deposit fee | Withdrawal fee | Min deposit | Withdrawal min / max | Processing |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Local DepositorBank TransferDeposits are instant with a 10 USD minimum; withdrawals are processed in 1 to 3 hours with a 5 USD minimum, read from the two tabs of the Deposits and Withdrawals page. processingTime records the slower withdrawal side. The page states no deposit fee and no withdrawal fee, but the fee fields are left unset rather than recorded as free: the Client Agreement entitles Exelium to change its charges without consultation or prior consent (clause 4.1) and reserves a penalty of 10% of the client's deposit, minimum 25 USD, where it suspects abusive behaviour (clause 13.3). The agreement has no deposits and withdrawals section at all. Clause 23 is a refund policy under which refunds go back to the original card and take about 2 to 3 weeks, and all other requests are treated as normal withdrawals and processed as per the company's own policies and procedures, with no published timetable. Clause 21.4 lets the company deduct all amounts due to it before transferring any balance. The page states no regional restriction on this channel. | Not recorded | Not recorded | USD 10 | USD 5Not recorded | Up to 3 hours |
ToolbOtherThe Deposits and Withdrawals page lists this channel alongside Local Depositor and TCPAY. Deposits and withdrawals are both instant with a 25 USD minimum each way, the highest minimum of the three channels. The broker names the provider only through its logo and publishes no description of it, so the channel kind could not be established and the type is recorded as other rather than guessed. The page states no deposit or withdrawal fee; the Client Agreement fee caveats noted for the Local Depositor channel apply to this channel equally. | Not recorded | Not recorded | USD 25 | USD 25Not recorded | Instant |
TCPAYE-WalletDeposits and withdrawals are both instant with a 5 USD minimum each way, the lowest of the three channels. This is the channel that makes the 5 USD Classic account minimum reachable: the accounts comparison page notes that 5 USD deposits are eligible only with selected payment providers. The page states no deposit or withdrawal fee; the Client Agreement fee caveats recorded on the Local Depositor row apply to this channel equally. | Not recorded | Not recorded | USD 5 | USD 5Not recorded | Instant |

Common questions about Exelium
Yes, as a separate product bought by subscription rather than funded by a deposit. Exelium sells seven challenge plans priced from 36 USD to 10,500 USD, with starting balances from 5,000 USD to 500,000 USD, profit targets from 4 to 25 per cent and 60 day durations. Leverage on them is far below the retail offer, at 1:100 on forex during a challenge and 1:30 on the resulting funded account.
Exelium publishes one telephone number, +1-758-572-5128, the address support@exelium.com, and a live chat widget on every page of its site. Complaints go to complaints@exelium.com or by post to the Anguilla registered office, with written acknowledgement promised within seven business days and a final response within 60 business days at the latest. The site publishes no support hours and carries no FAQ, help centre or knowledge base.
The platform pages advertise expert advisors and hedging as supported, but the client agreement restricts both in ways worth reading first. It defines abusive trading to include scalping and high frequency trading, and reserves the right to void or cancel trades and profits arising from strategies it judges abusive, and to apply a penalty of 10 per cent of the client's deposit with a 25 USD minimum where it suspects such behaviour. A separate clause prohibits any software or system employing artificial intelligence or similar analytical technology with the platform and allows profits generated that way to be withheld.
Yes. The client agreement for the Anguilla company provides for an inactivity fee of up to 5 USD, which may be charged every six months where there has been no trading activity in the preceding six months. The Seychelles company's agreement sets the equivalent fee at up to 10 USD annually, so the amount depends on which group entity the account is held with.
Yes, but as a conversion applied to an existing retail account rather than a separate tier. Exelium states the swap free alternative remains available for three consecutive calendar days on forex majors and gold, after which swap charges apply to positions still held. The client agreement also allows the company to enable or disable swap free trading at its discretion, to reverse cumulative profits generated from it, and to charge retrospectively the fees that would otherwise have applied.
Four retail tiers on exelium.com: Classic from 5 USD, Powerful Leverage from 50 USD, Premium Spreads from 300 USD and VIP from 5,000 USD. A fifth, the institutional FIX Account, is sold from 1,000 USD on exeliumglobal.com with raw spreads and 30 USD per million traded. A demo account is available, and all four retail tiers can be converted to swap free.
The published funding table quotes one to three hours for Local Depositor withdrawals and instant processing for TCPAY and Toolb, with minimums of 5, 5 and 25 USD. The client agreement itself contains no deposits and withdrawals section and sets no withdrawal timetable, minimum, maximum or method, providing only that requests are processed in line with the company's own policies and procedures, which are not published. Its refund route, used for returns to the card originally used, is quoted at about two to three weeks.
It depends on the tier. Classic charges no commission with spreads from 1 pip, while Premium Spread charges 5 USD per lot and VIP 3 USD per lot on forex and metals, both with spreads from 0.0 pips. Cryptocurrencies carry 0.10 per cent, agricultural commodities 15, 10 or 8 USD per lot by tier, and energies nothing at any tier. The client agreement sets no price list and states that Exelium may change its charges without any consultation or prior consent from the client.
Nothing in Exelium's own disclosures establishes that it is. It publishes a company registration number, a registered office, a full client agreement and a complaints procedure, and the group holds a Securities Dealer licence that was current on the Seychelles register on 12 September 2026. The caution worth weighing is structural rather than an allegation: the licensed company is not the one that takes retail deposits, and the Anguilla company that does holds no financial licence of its own.
Exelium is operated by Exelium Ltd, a company registered in Anguilla under number A000001254, with its registered office at No.8 Cassius Webster Building, Grace Complex, The Valley, AI-2640. A second group company, Exelium Global Ltd in Seychelles, runs exeliumglobal.com and holds the group's only financial licence. Which of the two a client contracts with depends on which site they register through, and each publishes its own client agreement.
Three channels, and Exelium names each only by its logo without saying what kind of service it is: Local Depositor, TCPAY and Toolb. Minimums are 10 USD to deposit and 5 USD to withdraw with Local Depositor, 5 USD each way with TCPAY, and 25 USD each way with Toolb. Deposits are instant on all three, withdrawals are instant on TCPAY and Toolb, and Local Depositor withdrawals are quoted at one to three hours. The funding table states no deposit or withdrawal fee, though the client agreement sets no price list and permits charges to change without the client's consent.
Up to 1:5000, but only on the first lot of a position on the Powerful Leverage account. That rate steps down as volume rises, to 1:2000 above one lot, 1:1000 above two lots, 1:500 above ten, and progressively to 1:10 above 500 lots. The other retail tiers cap at 1:3000 and the institutional FIX Account at 1:100, and the client agreement allows Exelium to set and vary leverage without prior notice.
5 USD opens the entry level Classic account, the lowest minimum Exelium publishes. The other tiers are higher: 50 USD for Powerful Leverage, 300 USD for Premium Spreads, 5,000 USD for VIP, and 1,000 USD for the institutional FIX Account sold on exeliumglobal.com. The payment channel sets a floor of its own, since TCPAY accepts from 5 USD, Local Depositor from 10 USD and Toolb from 25 USD, so the 5 USD account minimum is only reachable through TCPAY.
Not the company that takes retail deposits. Exelium Ltd, the Anguilla company behind exelium.com, holds no financial licence, and its Anguilla registration number A000001254 records that the company exists rather than regulating its trading business. The group's Seychelles company, Exelium Global Ltd, holds Securities Dealer licence SD238 from the Seychelles Financial Services Authority, which was current on that register on 12 September 2026. That licence sits on the Seychelles company and does not extend to the Anguilla one.
