Is MidasFX a scam?

High risk (unverified)MEDIUM confidence
Updated August 22, 2026
Unregulated offshore broker

MidasFX is a high-risk, unregulated offshore forex broker. We found no financial licence anywhere, and although it takes real deposits and runs live MetaTrader servers, it gives clients no regulatory protection and has a small number of unresolved withdrawal complaints.

  • No regulator is named and no licence number is published; the site says it is 'not directed at any jurisdiction'.
  • Its terms are governed by Saint Vincent and the Grenadines law, where forex brokers are not licensed; the registered address is a Saint Lucia company-formation building and the working office is in Batumi, Georgia.
  • No legal entity name or company number is disclosed anywhere on the site.
  • Reviews are mixed: one client reports a cancelled profit and a deposit that was never returned, another reports smooth withdrawals; fees to withdraw are reported above 20 percent.
  • The domain dates to 2011 but hosted a different signals business until about 2019; the current brokerage only appeared around late 2022.

Risk scorecard

Each area is scored 0 (clean) to 10 (worst). Higher means more risk.

Worst area: Critical
SeverityLowModerateHighCritical

Regulation

9/10 · Critical

No financial licence anywhere while taking retail deposits; no regulator named, and the claimed jurisdictions (SVG, Saint Lucia) do not license forex.

Identity & transparency

7/10 · High

No legal entity name or registration number disclosed; registered address is a company-formation building, with operations spread across Saint Lucia, SVG and Georgia.

Withdrawals & conduct

5/10 · Moderate

Genuine fund-access complaints (cancelled profit, deposit not returned, a small withdrawal never received) but mixed with credible smooth-withdrawal reports and broker responses; pattern unconfirmed.

Reputation

6/10 · High

Thin footprint: a handful of mixed Trustpilot and FPA reviews and aggregator high-risk/scam flags; net negative but not an overwhelming multi-platform pattern.

Website claims

4/10 · Moderate

No fabricated licence or fake awards, and it honestly states it names no regulator, but it markets aggressive 1:1000 leverage and a 100 percent bonus.

Operational history

4/10 · Moderate

Brokerage operating age about four years (relaunched around 2022 on a 2011 domain that previously hosted a different business); upper bound because the operating company could not be dated.

Who they are

A quick desk file on the company behind the brand.

  • Brand: MidasFX
  • Legal entity: Not disclosed on the site; the older version of the domain used the name 'Midasfx Financial Group Inc.'
  • Registered: Ground Floor, The Sotheby Building, Rodney Village, Rodney Bay, Gros-Islet, Saint Lucia (a company-formation address); working office at Office 26A, Zurab Gorgiladze str. 86A, Batumi, Georgia
  • Website: midasfx.com (client portal at my.midasfx.com)
  • Only licence: None. It holds no forex or CFD licence; the Saint Lucia registration is a company registration, not financial regulation.
  • Offers: Forex, crypto, indices, metals and energies on MetaTrader 4 and 5; up to 1:1000 leverage; 10 USD minimum deposit; a 100 percent deposit bonus.
  • Not accepted: No restricted-country list is published; the terms are governed by Saint Vincent and the Grenadines law.
  • Age claim: No founding year is advertised. The domain was registered in 2011 but the current brokerage relaunched around late 2022.

Regulation

Who really oversees this broker, and what each licence is worth to you.

No proof found

Proof of regulation on an official register: No

We could not confirm this broker on any genuine regulator’s register.

None (Saint Lucia IBC registration only)

UnverifiedNot a forex licence
MidasFX gives a Saint Lucia registered address and is governed by Saint Vincent and the Grenadines law, but it names no financial regulator and holds no forex or CFD licence anywhere. A Saint Lucia company registration is not financial regulation.
Protection: None

Why we reached this verdict

How the evidence adds up.

We rate MidasFX high-risk and unverified because it takes client money while giving clients no regulatory protection at all, and because too little about the operating company can be confirmed.

  • No regulation. The website names no regulator and publishes no licence number. It openly states it is 'not directed at any jurisdiction'. Its terms are governed by Saint Vincent and the Grenadines law, and that jurisdiction does not license forex brokers, so there is no supervisor standing behind client deposits.
  • No named company. Neither the terms nor the footer disclose a legal entity or a registration number. The Saint Lucia address is a well-known company-formation building and the real staff appear to sit in Batumi, Georgia. A client cannot easily identify or sue the company that holds their funds.
  • It is a genuine deposit-taking broker. There are live MetaTrader 4 and 5 servers ('MidasFX-Live'), a cashier, a 100 percent deposit bonus and 1:1000 leverage, so the unlicensed status is not excused by a prop-firm or education model.
  • Mixed conduct signals. One recent review describes a cancelled profit and a deposit that was never returned, and another describes a small withdrawal that never arrived with no reply from support. Others report withdrawals that worked, and the company replies to reviews. This is a real fund-access concern but not a confirmed systematic denial pattern.
  • Short real track record. The 2011 domain hosted a separate signals and copy-trading business until about 2019; the current brokerage only appeared around late 2022, so its operating history as a broker is roughly four years, not fifteen. The figure carries an upper-bound caveat because the operating company could not be dated on any registry.

Note on operating history: the 15.2-year track record rests on domain registration alone. No company incorporation date could be established, so this is an upper bound rather than a confirmed age.

The other side

The strongest case in this broker’s favour.

In fairness to MidasFX, several points cut the other way.

  • It is not a clone. It does not copy a regulated firm's name, licence number or identity, and it does not display a fabricated licence.
  • No regulator has published a warning naming midasfx.com. The FCA notice for 'Midas Capital Group' is a different company and does not apply here.
  • There is real trading infrastructure: genuine MetaTrader 4 and 5 servers and a working client portal, which a pure fake platform would not need.
  • Reviews are mixed rather than uniformly bad. At least one detailed account reports withdrawals of 2500, 1800 and 1000 US dollars going through smoothly, and the company publicly answers complaints.
  • Being unlicensed and offshore is high-risk, but on its own it is not proof of theft. Many offshore brokers operate this way.

What would change this

What we would need to see to revise the verdict.

Our view would move if the facts changed.

  • Worse: a regulator warning that names midasfx.com, or several time-clustered, specific reports across two or more platforms describing the same withdrawal-denial mechanism, would push this toward Likely Scam.
  • Worse: any demand for an extra payment (tax, fee, insurance) before releasing funds would be a serious escalation.
  • Better: a genuine, verifiable licence from a real regulator, held by a clearly named entity that matches the site, would materially lower the risk.
  • Better: disclosure of the operating legal entity and registration number, confirmable on a registry, would improve the transparency picture.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about this broker’s safety.

12 questions
Is MidasFX a scam?

We did not find enough to call it a confirmed scam, but we rate it high-risk and unverified. It is completely unregulated, takes real deposits, and has some unresolved withdrawal complaints. Trade with extreme caution.

Is MidasFX regulated?

No. The website names no regulator and publishes no licence number. Its terms are governed by Saint Vincent and the Grenadines law, which does not license forex brokers, and the Saint Lucia address is a company registration, not a financial licence.

Can I withdraw my money from MidasFX?

Reviews are mixed. Some clients report smooth withdrawals, but at least one reports a deposit that was never returned after a profit was cancelled, and another reports a small withdrawal that never arrived. Withdrawal fees above 20 percent have also been reported.

Is my money safe with MidasFX?

There is no regulatory protection. With no licence, no compensation scheme and no ombudsman, you would have little recourse if funds are withheld. Only risk money you can afford to lose.

Who owns MidasFX?

The site does not disclose an operating legal entity or a company number. An older version of the domain used the name 'Midasfx Financial Group Inc.', but the current owner is not clearly identified.

How old is MidasFX?

The domain was registered in 2011, but it hosted a different signals and copy-trading business until around 2019. The current forex brokerage only appeared around late 2022, so its real operating history is roughly four years.

Where is MidasFX based?

It gives a registered address in Saint Lucia and a working office in Batumi, Georgia, while its terms are governed by Saint Vincent and the Grenadines law. This spread across three offshore jurisdictions is itself a transparency concern.

Is MidasFX a clone of a regulated broker?

No. It does not copy a regulated firm's name, licence number or branding, and it does not display a fabricated licence. It is simply an unregulated broker under its own name.

What is the Saint Lucia registration worth?

Very little for your protection. A Saint Lucia International Business Company is an ordinary company registration, not authorisation to run a regulated brokerage, and it does not protect client deposits.

Does MidasFX appear on any regulator warning list?

We found no warning naming midasfx.com as of this review. A separate FCA notice for 'Midas Capital Group' is a different company and does not apply. Absence from warning lists is not a clean bill of health, as lists lag new operations.

What should I check before depositing with any broker?

Confirm the licence number directly on the regulator's own public register, check that the licensed entity name and website match the broker, read recent independent reviews for withdrawal problems, and be wary of very high leverage and large deposit bonuses.

What do I do if I was scammed by MidasFX?

Stop depositing immediately, never pay a fee or tax demanded to release funds, gather all records (transactions, chats, emails), request a chargeback from your bank or card provider if possible, and report the matter to your local financial authority and police.

What we recommend

The practical takeaway from everything above.

Our advice

Treat MidasFX as unregulated and act accordingly.

  • Do not deposit money you cannot afford to lose. There is no regulator, no compensation scheme and no ombudsman to help you recover funds.
  • If you already have a balance, consider withdrawing it and keep dated records of every request and reply.
  • Never pay any extra fee or tax that is demanded before a withdrawal is released; that is a classic advance-fee pattern.
  • Confirm any regulatory claim yourself on the regulator's own register before trusting it, and prefer brokers licensed by a tier-1 authority.
