Regulation

Identity & transparency
4/10 · ModerateEntity, registration number, licence number and paying agent are all published and all match the companies register and the licence register, with a real registered office in Ebene; against that, the LinkedIn page declares 51 to 200 employees while showing six profiles.
Withdrawals & conduct
9/10 · CriticalTwenty-seven fund-integrity complaints across two venues and thirteen countries describe one mechanism, clustered Dec 2024 to Nov 2025, with amounts, dates and named account managers, including explicit demands for further payment before release; the company does at least reply publicly.
Reputation
9/10 · CriticalTrustpilot 1.4 out of 5 with 79 of 90 reviews at one star and the page closed to new reviews, a second venue scoring it near its floor with dozens of recent complaints, and an apparent reputation-management page carrying 160 comments and no complaint at all.
Website claims
6/10 · HighThe licence claim is true and verifiable, which we credit, but the site sells it as reassurance about trustworthiness and meeting all regulatory requirements without disclosing that it is offshore and carries no compensation scheme, publishes no link to the register, and runs German, Italian, Spanish and French versions while stating it does not serve EU residents.
Operational history
4/10 · ModerateVerified roughly four years, with the company incorporated 19 November 2021 and the oldest domain registered 27 October 2022; no age misrepresentation, though the current site only dates from October 2024.

Why we reached this verdict
How the evidence adds up.
Two things decide this case, and they point the same way.
- Two regulators have named the exact websites. The CMF in Chile listed TradeEU GLOBAL on 5 August 2025 together with tradeeuglobal.net, tradeeu-global.com and tradeeu.global, stating that it is not registered and cannot be supervised or sanctioned there. The SMV in Panama issued a public notice on 29 July 2024 saying TradeEU. Global holds no SMV licence and never has, so it may not carry on securities or forex intermediation in or from Panama. These are statements about authorisation rather than findings of theft, but they are two separate governments putting this operation's own addresses in writing.
- The complaint pattern is one mechanism, not scattered grumbling. On the Trustpilot page for tradeeuglobal.net, 79 of 90 reviews are one star and the rating is 1.4 out of 5. We read and classified 27 complaints from clients in Egypt, the United Kingdom, the United States, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Peru, Ecuador, the Philippines, Bahrain, Costa Rica, Singapore, Mexico and Dominica, clustered between December 2024 and November 2025, and the great majority describe the same sequence: pressure from a named account manager, profits shown on the platform, then a withdrawal that is delayed, cancelled without reason or simply never paid.
- The money is asked for twice. This is the part that moves the case. One client reports being asked to send USD 7,500 to clear a negative balance before a USD 35,000 account would be released, with a warning that refusing would cost the balance and leave a further USD 35,000 owing. Another was told a GBP 2,000 withdrawal had been processed but would take 30 to 60 days, and was then asked to open a cryptocurrency wallet and send more funds. A third says withdrawals worked twice, after which the calls began asking for large deposits before profits could be taken out. Asking a client for a further payment to release their own balance is the advance-fee mechanic, and no honest brokerage has a version of it.
- The sales apparatus matches. Clients across unrelated venues name the same handful of account managers, describe trades being placed on their behalf, and describe bonuses that create a negative balance which then blocks a withdrawal. The company publishes a bonus agreement, and a continuing stream of complaints into late 2025 and 2026 on a second venue describes exactly that bonus trap.
- The favourable material does not look organic. A Spanish-language site that ranks for scam queries about this broker carries 160 comments dated from April 2025 to October 2026. Every single one is favourable, each is answered by the site administrator, most arrive in the small hours, and most praise the adviser who tells them when to withdraw. There is not one complaint among them, against a 1.4 out of 5 Trustpilot profile for the same domain. We read that as managed reputation rather than customer feedback.
- What the licence does and does not do. We confirmed the licence on the FSC's own register, so this is not a clone and not an invented number, and the company has not hidden who it is. But a Mauritius Investment Dealer licence carries no investor compensation scheme, and it gives a client in Lima, Mexico City or Dubai no authority to appeal to. The site sells the licence as reassurance, with lines about trustworthiness and meeting all regulatory requirements, and publishes no link for a reader to go and check it.
We stop short of calling this settled. The company, the licence and the registered office are all real, no tier-one regulator has issued a warning naming it, and we found no enforcement action or court judgment against TRADESENSE HOLDING LTD. The withdrawal accounts are client testimony, abundant and specific but not adjudicated. Our scoring reflects that: the weighted dimension score comes to 6.8 out of 10, which the hard-floor rules for regulator notices naming the exact domains and for a credible advance-fee demand lift to 82 per cent.
Evidence ledger
Every finding, with its source and how strongly it points.
E1Chile's financial regulator published a notice on 5 August 2025 listing TradeEU GLOBAL together with tradeeuglobal.net, tradeeu-global.com and tradeeu.global, stating the entity is not registered with the CMF and not legally authorised to provide services regulated under the Fintech Law, so the CMF cannot exercise supervisory or sanctioning powers over it.
E2Panama's securities regulator published a notice dated 29 July 2024 stating that TradeEU. Global is not, and has never been, the holder of a licence issued by the SMV, and therefore has no authorisation to carry on intermediation, management or advisory business in securities, financial instruments or forex in or from Panama.
E3The review page for the exact domain tradeeuglobal.net stands at 1.4 out of 5 from 90 reviews, distributed 79 one star, 3 two star, 3 three star, none four star and 5 five star, and the page is closed to new reviews. The dominant theme is money that did not come back: withdrawals delayed, cancelled without reason or never paid, with named account managers and specific amounts including GBP 2,000, USD 13,200 and PHP 1.6 million.
E4Credible, specific demands for a further payment before funds would be released. One client reports being asked for USD 7,500 to clear a negative balance on a USD 35,000 account, with a warning that refusing would cost the balance and leave a further USD 35,000 owing, after fifteen unanswered emails. Another was told a GBP 2,000 withdrawal was processed but would take 30 to 60 days, then asked to open a cryptocurrency wallet and send more. A third says withdrawals worked twice before the calls began requiring large deposits to release profits.
E5A second, independent complaint venue carries the same mechanism from different clients in a later window, September to November 2025, from Peru, Mexico, the United Arab Emirates and Dominica, including withdrawal requests cancelled without reason, bonuses creating a negative balance that blocks payout, and complaints left unanswered. That venue reported more than forty complaints in a three-month span.
StrongSecond third-party complaint venueE6The Mauritius FSC public register records TRADESENSE HOLDING LTD holding a SEC-2.1B Investment Dealer (Full Service Dealer excluding Underwriting) licence dated 19 November 2021, licensee status COMPANY IS INCORPORATED, no annotations or conditions, registered office Suite 4B, Fourth Floor, Ebene Mews, 57 Cybercity, Ebene 72201. The licence is real, in force and held in the operation's own name, so this is not a clone and not an invented number.
E7The Mauritius companies register shows TRADESENSE HOLDING LTD, file number C183967, category Global Business Company, incorporated 19 November 2021, nature private, status LIVE. This matches the registration number 183967 printed in the company's own legal notice.
E8A Spanish-language site that ranks for scam queries about this broker carries 160 comments dated from 4 April 2025 to 2 October 2026. Every one is favourable, each is answered by the site administrator, most arrive in the early hours, and most praise the adviser who tells them when to withdraw. There is no complaint among them, against a 1.4 out of 5 rating for the same domain on Trustpilot. We assess this as managed reputation rather than customer feedback.
E9The company's own pages sell the licence as reassurance, with an FSC Regulated Broker banner, a claim that trustworthiness and reliability are at the core of the partnership, and a statement that it ensures its platform meets all regulatory requirements. Nothing discloses that the licence is offshore, that it carries no investor compensation scheme, or that it confers no authorisation in the countries where its clients live, and no link to the register is published for a reader to check.
E10Trading runs on a proprietary in-house WebTrader and mobile app, with charting supplied by TradingView. No MetaTrader, cTrader or other independently verifiable trading server is offered, so a client cannot check through any third party that orders reach a real market. Several clients allege precisely that they do not.
ModerateTradeEU Global platforms pageE11The company states it does not provide services to residents of the European Union, yet publishes German, Italian, Spanish and French versions of its site. A Spanish investor forum noted in June 2025 that the brand had begun gaining visibility in Spain through forums, social media and websites, and the largest single language group in its review base is Spanish, at 56 of 84 filterable reviews.
E12Domain dates from the registries: tradeeu.global was registered on 27 October 2022 and transferred on 25 November 2024, while tradeeuglobal.net and tradeeu-global.com were both registered on 17 October 2024. The oldest domain is just under four years old and the current public site dates from October 2024, both of which sit after the company's incorporation on 19 November 2021.
E13The company's LinkedIn page gives its website as tradeeuglobal.net and its headquarters as Ebene, Mauritius, matching the register, and repeats the FSC licence number GB21026906. It declares a company size of 51 to 200 employees while showing six employee profiles and 185 followers.
E14No entry for this operation appears on the FCA warning list. An FCA warning exists for the unrelated domain trade-eu.net, which belongs to a different operation and is not counted against this broker. The licence does not appear among the FSC Mauritius surrendered licences, and the register entry carries no annotation, so the licence stands.
The other side
The strongest case in this broker’s favour.
The case for the broker, stated as strongly as the evidence allows:
- The licence is genuine and we verified it ourselves. The Mauritius FSC public register shows TRADESENSE HOLDING LTD holding an Investment Dealer (Full Service Dealer excluding Underwriting) licence granted on 19 November 2021, with no annotations, no conditions and a real registered office in Ebene Cybercity. That is a dealing licence, not an advice-only permission and not a company registration dressed up as one.
- It is not a clone and not an impersonation. The licence is held in the company's own name, the licence number it advertises matches the register's own classification of that licence, and the Mauritius companies register confirms the registration number printed on the site. Nobody else's credentials are being worn.
- Much of what is written about this broker elsewhere is wrong. A great many pages call it unregulated. That is simply incorrect, and we have said so. Others credit it with a CySEC licence, which is also incorrect: the similarly named TradeEU brand at tradeeu.com belongs to a different company, and TradeEU Global does not claim a CySEC licence anywhere on its own site. Readers deserve the accurate version of both.
- Identity is disclosed, not hidden. The legal notice names the contracting entity, its registration number, its licence number and its Cyprus paying agent. A full set of legal documents is published, including a complaint handling policy. Its LinkedIn page lists its headquarters in Ebene, matching the register. Scam shells usually do the opposite.
- Unauthorised-firm notices are not findings of theft. Any offshore broker that markets across borders collects them, because an offshore licence authorises nothing elsewhere. Chile and Panama said this operation is not registered with them. Neither said it stole anything.
- It answers in public. The company replies to critical reviews rather than ignoring them, asks complainants to submit details, and maintains a claimed review profile. A handful of clients report satisfactory order execution.
- No tier-one warning and no enforcement record. We checked the FCA's warning list and found no entry for this operation. An FCA notice exists for the unrelated domain trade-eu.net, which belongs to a different operation, and we have not counted it. We found no regulator fine, no enforcement action and no fraud-related court record naming TRADESENSE HOLDING LTD.
What this does not answer is the conduct. A real licence proves who the company is. It does not explain why clients in thirteen countries tell the same story about the same ending, and it does not make a request for a further payment before a balance is released into anything other than what it looks like.
What would change this
What we would need to see to revise the verdict.
This verdict is evidence-based and it can move in either direction.
- Toward a lower risk: a documented run of paid withdrawals, with amounts and dates, from clients who had previously been refused. That is the single most useful thing the company could produce.
- The Mauritius FSC publishing a finding that it investigated the withdrawal complaints and found no fund-handling failure.
- Chile's CMF or Panama's SMV removing or amending their notices, or the company obtaining authorisation in the markets it actually sells into.
- An independently verifiable execution venue, so a client can check that orders reach a real market rather than an in-house book.
- The company publishing a direct link to its register entry, and stating plainly on the pages that sell the licence that it carries no investor compensation scheme.
- Toward a worse verdict: a warning or enforcement action from the FCA, CySEC, BaFin, CONSOB, ASIC or the Mauritius FSC naming TRADESENSE HOLDING LTD or any of its three domains. That would take this to a confirmed finding.
- Suspension, revocation or surrender of the Mauritius Investment Dealer licence while the site keeps taking deposits.
- A criminal charge, a court judgment or a prosecutor's filing naming the company.
- Evidence that the platform is not routing orders to a market, which several clients allege and which an audited execution report would settle one way or the other.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about this broker’s safety.
Is TradeEU Global a scam?
We assess it as a high-risk operation that behaves like one, and we would not deposit with it. It holds a real Mauritius licence, so it is not a fake company, but two national regulators have published notices naming its websites and clients in more than a dozen countries report the same ending: money paid in, withdrawal refused, then a demand for a further payment before anything is released.
Is TradeEU Global a fraud?
No regulator or court has made a finding of fraud against TRADESENSE HOLDING LTD, and we found no enforcement action or fraud-related court record naming it. What exists is a large, consistent body of client reports describing deposits accepted and withdrawals then refused, plus demands for extra payments to release funds. On that evidence we assess the risk of fraud as high, but we state it as our assessment and not as an established legal finding.
Is TradeEU Global regulated?
Yes, but only offshore. The Financial Services Commission of Mauritius shows TRADESENSE HOLDING LTD holding an Investment Dealer (Full Service Dealer excluding Underwriting) licence granted on 19 November 2021, licence number GB21026906. We verified that on the FSC's own register. It is not regulated by the FCA, CySEC, BaFin, ASIC or any other onshore authority, and many web pages that call it completely unregulated are wrong.
What is a Mauritius FSC licence actually worth to me?
Less than it sounds. It is a genuine dealing licence, so the company is permitted to run a brokerage from Mauritius. But there is no investor compensation scheme standing behind it, no ombudsman a foreign retail client can realistically use, and if your money does not come back your only route is a complaint to a regulator on an island thousands of miles away.
Can I withdraw my money from TradeEU Global?
Many clients say no. The dominant complaint on its own review page is a withdrawal that is delayed, cancelled without explanation or never paid, often after a period in which small withdrawals worked. Several clients report being asked to deposit a further sum first. If you have a balance there, request it in writing now and keep every reference number and screenshot.
They are asking me to pay a fee or deposit more before I can withdraw. Is that normal?
No. It is the clearest warning sign there is. A real withdrawal never requires a new payment, whether it is called a tax, a clearance fee, insurance, a verification charge or a deposit to clear a negative balance. Clients here report being asked for sums as large as USD 7,500 before a balance would be released. Do not send it. Money sent at that stage is lost too.
Is my money safe with TradeEU Global?
We would not treat it as safe. Client funds sit with a Mauritius company under an offshore licence with no compensation scheme, the trading platform is in-house with no independently verifiable execution, and the published complaint record is dominated by people who could not get their money out.
Who owns and operates TradeEU Global?
TRADESENSE HOLDING LTD, a Mauritius Global Business Company, file number C183967, incorporated on 19 November 2021 with a registered office at Suite 4B, 4th Floor, Ebene Mews, 57 Cybercity, Ebene. The company names TRADESENSE HOLDING CYPRUS LTD, registration HE 441511 in Limassol, as its paying agent. It operates tradeeu.global, tradeeuglobal.net and tradeeu-global.com.
How old is TradeEU Global?
About four years, and the public-facing site is younger than that. The company was incorporated on 19 November 2021. Of its domains, tradeeu.global was registered on 27 October 2022, while tradeeuglobal.net and tradeeu-global.com were both registered on 17 October 2024, which is when the current site took shape. The company advertises no founding year, so there is no age claim to contradict.
Is TradeEU Global the same as TradeEU at tradeeu.com?
No, and the confusion matters. TradeEU Global is TRADESENSE HOLDING LTD in Mauritius. The separate TradeEU brand at tradeeu.com belongs to a different company with a Cyprus CySEC licence. TradeEU Global does not claim a CySEC licence on its own site, and any page that credits it with one is mistaken. Check which domain and which company name you are actually dealing with before you deposit.
Is TradeEU Global a clone of another broker?
No. The licence it advertises is held in its own name, the number matches the register's own record of that licence, and the registration number on the site matches the Mauritius companies register. Nobody else's credentials are being used, which is one of the few things clearly in its favour.
Have any regulators warned about TradeEU Global?
Yes, two that we confirmed at source. Chile's CMF published a notice on 5 August 2025 naming TradeEU GLOBAL and all three of its websites as not registered and not authorised to provide regulated services there. Panama's SMV published a notice on 29 July 2024 stating the operation is not and never has been an SMV licence holder. We found no FCA warning naming this operation.
Why are its Trustpilot reviews so bad when other sites praise it?
Its per-domain Trustpilot page sits at 1.4 out of 5 from 90 reviews, with 79 one-star, and Trustpilot has closed it to new reviews. Several of the glowing pages elsewhere do not look organic: one Spanish-language site that ranks for scam searches about this broker carries 160 comments spanning April 2025 to October 2026 with no complaint at all among them, each answered by the site administrator. Weigh specific accounts with amounts and dates above volumes of generic praise.
What should I do if I have already lost money to TradeEU Global?
Stop sending money, however the request is framed. Gather your evidence: deposits, withdrawal requests, account statements, chat and email history. Ask your bank or card issuer for a chargeback or recall immediately, since the time limits are short. Complain to the Financial Services Commission of Mauritius, which licenses the company, and report it to your own national regulator and police. Ignore anyone offering to recover your funds for an upfront fee.
What should I check before depositing with any offshore broker?
Four things. Find the licence on the regulator's own register, not on the broker's website. Check the exact legal entity on the register is the one in the terms you are signing. Search the exact domain, not the brand, on review sites and regulator warning lists. And ask yourself what happens if the money does not come back: if there is no compensation scheme and no ombudsman you can reach, you are the one carrying that risk.
What we recommend
The practical takeaway from everything above.
Our advice for anyone considering this broker, and for anyone already in:
- Do not deposit. The pattern reported here ends with money that does not come back, and an offshore Mauritius licence gives a foreign retail client almost no practical recourse.
- If anyone asks you to pay anything to release your own funds, stop. No tax, no clearance fee, no insurance, no deposit to clear a negative balance, no crypto wallet. A genuine withdrawal never requires a new payment. Every extra payment is lost as well.
- If you already have funds there, request a full withdrawal in writing today, keep the ticket reference, and screenshot your balance, your trade history and every message from your account manager before anything changes.
- Do not let an account manager place trades for you, and refuse bonuses. A credited bonus is what several clients say turned into the negative balance that blocked their withdrawal.
- Complain to the licensing regulator. The Financial Services Commission of Mauritius supervises this licence and is the body with authority over it. Send it the written withdrawal requests and the replies.
- Report it where you live, to your national financial regulator and to the police or prosecutor. Clients in Chile, Panama, the United Kingdom and elsewhere have already done so, and regulator files are built from exactly these reports.
- Raise a chargeback or a recall with your card issuer or bank straight away. Card schemes have time limits, and they are often the fastest route to recovering money.
- Ignore anyone who contacts you offering to recover your funds for a fee. Victim lists circulate, and recovery offers are usually the second scam.
