We checked Universal Futures on 2026-10-16 across regulation, corporate record, client terms, trading offer and service, covering 61% of the record. The best licence in force was BAPPEBTI 13/BAPPEBTI/SI/03/2008. The score was capped at 20 because it clones another firm or sits on a regulator warning list. Coverage was 61%, below the 65% needed for a full rating. What would change it: licence held by the onboarding entity, policy risk, critical clauses. The published scam check reached the verdict "likely scam" and established 0.9 years of track record. No policy review had been published, so the client terms were not scored.

Broker Summary

What Wikilix has recorded about Universal Futures: its history, the licences it holds, its trading conditions and its fees.

Universal Futures is a forex and futures trading brand operated from the domain , presenting itself as an Indonesian firm with an office address at APL Tower, Jl. Letjen S. Parman Kav. 28, Grogol Petamburan, West Jakarta.

Regulation. WIKILIX could not confirm that this operator holds any forex or futures licence. No supervisory authority record was available to us for this domain during our review, and the operator's own website was offline throughout, so nothing it may claim about supervision could be read or tested. On the evidence we have, the brand should be treated as unregulated.

Identity. The brand name is shared with a separately established Indonesian futures brokerage that operates under a different domain. A name in common is not a connection, and readers should not assume that any licence associated with that other firm applies to this domain. Our own on-the-ground check of the Jakarta address published for this operator did not find a working office there.

Website and offering. Throughout our review the site returned an origin server failure on the root and on every language path we tried, so no account types, spreads, leverage, funding channels, platform list or country policy could be verified from the operator itself. We publish no commercial terms for this broker rather than repeat figures we could not source.

Contact. The operator publishes a Jakarta telephone number, +62 21 2918 1729, and the email address cs@universal-futures.com.

Who it suits. Nobody, on current evidence. An unconfirmed licence, an unreachable website and an unverified office are three independent reasons a retail trader has no way to recover deposited funds. Traders in Indonesia who want a domestically supervised futures broker should verify the specific company and licence number directly with the relevant Indonesian authority before depositing anything, and should not rely on brand names alone.

Regulatory Licenses

Every licence Universal Futures has in force is from an offshore regulator. Most carry no compensation scheme — each licence's record says what the issuing regulator actually requires.

What our check found

Indonesia's Commodity Futures Trading Supervisory Agency, the statutory regulator for futures brokers. A real and meaningful licence, but this one is registered to PT Panen Kapital Berjangka, not to this website. Client protection: Genuine protection for clients of the licence holder, including segregated client accounts named on the register. None of it extends to this website, which is not the registered site for this licence.

  • Maximum leverage1:100

These are the rules BAPPEBTI sets for the firms it licenses. They are not a statement about how Universal Futures applies them, or about which of its companies would hold your account.

A licence record describes what an authority published. It is not an endorsement, and Wikilix does not issue authorisations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Universal Futures

Most Popular Questions

Take the exact legal company name and the exact licence number the broker publishes, and check them yourself on the relevant authority's own register. A brand name, a logo, an impressive office address or a listing on a comparison site is not verification. If the broker cannot give you a company name and a licence number that check out, do not deposit.

There is no evidence of any client-money protection. Segregated accounts, a compensation scheme and an ombudsman all depend on supervision by a financial regulator, and no such supervision was confirmed. Treat any money sent there as unprotected.

The brand appears to have been operating for a few years, but we could not verify an incorporation date against any company registry, so its true age is unestablished.

We do not have proof of fraud, and we do not call it one. What we can say is that none of the basic protections a client relies on could be confirmed: no licence, no verified operating company, no working website and no confirmed office at the address published. That combination is high risk, and WIKILIX advises against depositing money with it.

The published channels are the telephone number +62 21 2918 1729 and the email address cs@universal-futures.com. We were not able to confirm that either is monitored, and no live chat or support portal could be verified.

Unknown. The client agreement, any restricted-countries page, the signup form's country list, the AML policy, the funding page and the footer disclaimer were all unreachable, so we hold no country policy for this broker and make no claim about who it accepts or refuses.

No funding or withdrawal channels, fees, limits or processing times could be verified. With the website offline, there is also no practical route to submit a withdrawal request. Anyone who currently holds a balance there should document everything they have and take advice.

We could not confirm any. No platform list, server name or download link was verifiable from the operator during our review.

Unknown. No leverage figure could be verified from the operator, so we publish none rather than repeat an unsourced number.

We do not publish one. The operator's website was unavailable, so no account minimum could be verified from the operator itself, and we do not publish figures we cannot source.

Every request we made to universal-futures.com returned an origin server failure, on the home page and on each language path we tried, using both an ordinary connection and a full browser. That is the operator's own server failing rather than a block on us. A trading site that will not load is also a site through which you cannot reach your account or request a withdrawal.

We have no evidence that they are connected. A separately established Indonesian futures brokerage uses a similar name and operates from a different domain. Do not assume a licence held by that firm covers this website. Brand names are widely reused in this industry, and identity rests on the domain, the legal entity and the licence number, never on the name.

The operator is not identified by a registered company name and number that we could verify. The brand publishes a Jakarta office address and an Indonesian telephone number, but no legal entity, incorporation number or jurisdiction of incorporation was confirmable during our review.

Not as far as WIKILIX could establish. We found no confirmed forex or futures licence for the operator of universal-futures.com, and its own website was offline throughout our review, so any regulatory claim it may publish could not be read or tested. We class it as unregulated on the evidence available.
