We checked VANEXFX on 2026-10-17 across regulation, corporate record, client terms, trading offer and service, covering 80% of the record. The best licence in force was VFSC 41695. The score was capped at 50 because a published scam check rated it high risk and unverified. What would change it: policy risk, critical clauses, withdrawal rails. The published scam check reached the verdict "high risk, unverified" and established 6.1 years of track record. No policy review had been published, so the client terms were not scored. Trading EURUSD cost about 0.1 pips all-in, spread and commission together.

Broker Summary

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

VANEXFX Broker Overview

VANEXFX is the trading brand of VANEX LIMITED, an international company registered in Port Vila, Vanuatu under number 41695 since 22 May 2019. The broker has been presented as a retail forex and CFD service built on MetaTrader 5, with a single Standard account, no stated minimum deposit and leverage of up to 1:500. Its main domain, vanexfx.com, no longer serves a trading site: it currently resolves to a domain parking page offering the name for sale, so no live client area, account opening route or legal documentation is available at the address the broker publishes.

VANEXFX Regulation and License

The licence associated with VANEXFX is held by VANEX LIMITED and was issued by the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission under number 41695, effective 23 December 2022, as a derivatives trading permission covering futures and options trading. Vanuatu is an offshore, light touch jurisdiction: the authority does not operate a client money compensation scheme and its supervisory requirements are considerably lighter than those of onshore regulators. This licence record was not confirmed against the authority's own licensee register during this research, so it is best treated as documented rather than independently register confirmed.

Is VANEXFX Regulated?

VANEXFX is associated with one offshore licence only, and no onshore regulation of any kind. A client dealing with VANEX LIMITED has no recourse to a national regulator in Europe, Australia, the United Kingdom or the United States, and no statutory compensation if the firm fails or refuses to return funds.

VANEX LIMITED

VANEX LIMITED is confirmed on the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission register of international companies as registered, with a registered office at Govant Building, Kumul Highway, 1st Floor, Port Vila, and its most recent annual return filed on 22 May 2026. That record proves the company exists and remains in good standing as a company. It is a corporate registration and not, on its own, evidence of financial regulation or of any permission to hold client money.

Is VANEXFX Safe?

VANEXFX cannot be treated as safe to fund, because the website it publishes no longer operates as a broker site. Whatever the state of the licence, there is currently no verifiable route to open, fund or withdraw from an account, and no published terms setting out how client money would be held. The corporate identity is also inconsistent: the entity carrying the licence is a Vanuatu international company, while the brand has separately been presented with an Australian registration and a Bangkok correspondence address, none of which reconcile with one another.

VANEXFX Account Types

Only one account has ever been recorded for VANEXFX, a Standard account with no minimum deposit requirement, leverage up to 1:500 and no per lot commission. Spreads were advertised from 0.1 pips. These conditions cannot be checked against the broker's own site at present.

VANEXFX Trading Platforms

MetaTrader 5 is the only platform recorded for VANEXFX. No broker hosted download, server name or web terminal is currently published.

VANEXFX Pros and Cons

Points in its favour

  • The operating entity is a real, named company confirmed on the Vanuatu companies register and in good standing there.
  • A specific licence number, issuing authority, holder and effective date exist for the brand rather than a vague regulatory claim.

Points against

  • The published domain is a parking page, so there is no working trading service to assess.
  • The only licence is offshore and low tier, with no compensation scheme behind it.
  • The corporate details attached to the brand do not agree with one another.
  • Trading conditions and funding terms cannot be verified from the broker's own site.

VANEXFX Review and Assessment

VANEXFX is a brand behind which a genuine Vanuatu company sits, but not one that presently operates a website a client could use. The most important consideration before any deposit is simply that there is nothing live to deposit into at the address the broker publishes, and no onshore supervision to appeal to if funds are already with the firm. Anyone holding a balance should attempt withdrawal through the contact details on record and keep documentation of every request.

Regulatory Licenses

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

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about VANEXFX

Most Popular Questions

Because the details attached to the brand do not reconcile. The licensed entity is a Vanuatu international company, the brand has separately been presented with an Australian registration we could not find in the Australian business register, and the correspondence address on record is in Bangkok. We treat that inconsistency as a transparency problem in its own right.

The operating company, VANEX LIMITED, was registered in Vanuatu on 22 May 2019, and its trading licence took effect on 23 December 2022. So the corporate record is about seven years old and the licensed period considerably shorter.

There is no evidence of protection. The Vanuatu Financial Services Commission operates no client fund insurance or compensation scheme, no segregation commitment is published by the broker, and no terms of business are available to read.

We found no proof of fraud, and the company behind the brand is real and in good standing on the Vanuatu companies register. What we did find is that the service is not operating: the published website is a parking page, so there is no way to verify terms, fund an account or withdraw. On that basis VANEXFX should be treated as high risk and unverified rather than as either a scam or a safe choice.

We could not establish a reliable country policy, because the broker publishes no terms, no restricted jurisdiction clause and no signup form from which the accepted country list could be read. Absence of a stated restriction is not acceptance, so treat availability as unknown.

The contact details on record are the email address support@vanexfx.com and the telephone numbers +61 414 269 481 and +66 909723559. A correspondence address in the Suan Luang District of Bangkok has also been used. There is no live chat and no support portal.

No deposit or withdrawal channel, fee schedule, limit or processing time is published anywhere we could verify, so we list none. Anyone holding a balance should put a written withdrawal request to the contact details on record and keep evidence of every request and reply.

Spreads were advertised from 0.1 pips on the Standard account with no per lot commission, so the trading cost was taken in the spread. Neither figure can be verified against the broker's own site at present.

MetaTrader 5 is the only platform recorded for VANEXFX. No broker hosted download link, server name or web terminal is published.

Up to 1:500 on the Standard account. Leverage at that level magnifies losses as much as gains, and it is well above the caps applied by onshore regulators in Europe, the United Kingdom and Australia.

The Standard account was advertised with no minimum deposit requirement. That figure cannot currently be checked against the broker's own site, because the site no longer publishes trading conditions.

No. The domain the broker publishes, vanexfx.com, resolves to a domain parking page offering the name for sale rather than to a broker website. There is no client area, no account opening form and no legal documentation available there.

VANEX LIMITED, an international company registered in Vanuatu under number 41695 since 22 May 2019, with a registered office at Govant Building, Kumul Highway, 1st Floor, Port Vila. We confirmed the company on the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission register of international companies, where it is shown as registered with an annual return filed on 22 May 2026.

VANEXFX is associated with one offshore licence and no onshore regulation. The licence is held by VANEX LIMITED and was issued by the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission under number 41695, effective 23 December 2022, covering futures and options trading. Vanuatu is a light touch jurisdiction with no client money compensation scheme, and this record was not confirmed against the authority's own licensee register during our research.
