Broker Summary

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

VENMAR, also presented under the name Ventures Market, is a retail forex and CFD brand registered in the Seychelles and operating under the company name Ven Mar Limited. It holds a Derivatives Trading License (EP) from the Seychelles Financial Services Authority, licence number SD188, issued to the entity VEN MAR LLC. The brand dates from 2023, which makes it a young operation by industry standards.

The most important thing to know about VENMAR today is that its website does not work. At the time of this review, returns an invalid SSL certificate error at the origin server and serves no content at all, on the root domain, without the www prefix, over plain HTTP, and behind a language prefix. That is not a temporary block on automated visitors; it is a broken server certificate, and it means a prospective client cannot open an account, read the terms, or reach a client portal. It also means none of the things a broker is normally judged on can be checked: there is no published spread schedule, no deposit or withdrawal policy, no list of restricted countries, no legal documents and no client agreement available to read.

Regulation. The Seychelles FSA licence is genuine and appears to be in force, and that counts for something. But it is an offshore, light-touch authorisation. The Seychelles regime carries no client-money compensation scheme, no negative-balance protection requirement and no deposit guarantee, and it permits leverage far above what onshore regulators allow. A Seychelles licence is not comparable to authorisation from a tier-one regulator, and it should not be read as one.

What is on offer. Two account tiers are on record: Standard, from a 30 USD minimum deposit with a 0.01 lot minimum trade size, and Professional, from 100 USD with a 0.1 lot minimum. Both are quoted at leverage up to 1:500 with no per-trade commission, so trading costs sit in the spread. Around 150 instruments are described across foreign exchange, US equities, commodities and energy. No trading platform is confirmed on record for this broker, which is unusual and worth noting: a retail broker that cannot be shown to offer a working platform has not demonstrated the basic thing it sells.

Corporate structure. Two entities appear behind one brand and they do not sit together comfortably. The company name given for the business is Ven Mar Limited in the Seychelles, while the entity named as the holder of the Seychelles licence is VEN MAR LLC, which is recorded as a limited liability company incorporated in Oregon, United States, number 61658598, on 3 December 2023. Neither entity could be confirmed against an official corporate register during this review.

Who this suits. At present, nobody. This is not a judgement about the licence, which is real; it is that a broker whose website does not load cannot be assessed, cannot be joined, and cannot be relied on to return money already deposited. Traders comparing offshore brokers should wait until the site is restored and the legal documents, funding terms and platform can actually be read, and traders who want statutory protection over their deposits should be looking at onshore-regulated firms instead.

Caveats. The commercial figures above are the values on record for this broker rather than terms confirmed against the broker's own published documents, because those documents are not currently reachable. The licence has no published effective or expiry date. Existing clients who cannot access their accounts should put any withdrawal request in writing to the broker and, if it is not met, raise the matter with the Seychelles Financial Services Authority, naming licence SD188.

Regulatory Licenses

Every licence VENMAR 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

A Securities Dealer licence from the Seychelles Financial Services Authority, the offshore regulator for the non-bank financial sector. It permits dealing in securities and derivatives, and we confirmed Ven Mar Limited on the FSA's own Securities Dealer register with the website www.venmarltd.com recorded against it. It is genuine supervision, but it is low-tier: capital, conduct and client-money requirements are far lighter than in the UK or Australia, and there is no investor compensation scheme. Client protection: Low. No investor compensation scheme and limited practical recourse if client money is not returned.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about VENMAR

Most Popular Questions

Put a withdrawal request in writing to support@venmarltd.com immediately, stating the amount and your account details, and keep a dated copy of everything you send along with records of your original deposits. If the request is not met, complain to the Seychelles Financial Services Authority, naming licence number SD188 and the licensee VEN MAR LLC. If you funded by card or bank transfer, ask your bank about a chargeback or recall promptly, because those routes are time-limited. Do not pay anyone who contacts you offering to recover the funds for an upfront fee.

The contact details on record are the phone number +248 250 4628 and the email address support@venmarltd.com. Note that the email domain is the same one whose web server is failing, so message delivery may be affected. No live chat, support portal or social media channel is confirmed.

Not by any compensation scheme. The Seychelles regime provides no investor compensation fund, no deposit guarantee and no client-money insurance, so if the firm became insolvent you would be an ordinary creditor pursuing a claim in an offshore jurisdiction. Only deposit what you can afford to lose entirely.

We cannot say. VENMAR publishes no reachable list of restricted or accepted jurisdictions, and its signup form cannot be opened, so there is no way to establish which countries it onboards. Absence of a published restriction is not the same as acceptance. Treat your eligibility as unknown.

Around 150 instruments are described, spanning foreign exchange, US equities, commodities and energy. We could not verify the instrument list, the individual symbols or the counts against the broker's own published specifications.

Since 2023. The entity named on the licence was incorporated on 3 December 2023, giving the operation roughly two and a half years of history as of this review. That is short: a broker has not yet been tested through a full market cycle or a period of stress at that age, and there is no long record of paying clients out.

We cannot tell you, and that is the problem. No deposit or withdrawal method, fee, processing time or limit is confirmed for this broker, because the funding pages are not reachable. Never send money to a broker whose withdrawal terms you have not been able to read.

Two. Standard is the entry tier, from 30 USD with a 0.01 lot minimum trade size. Professional is aimed at more experienced traders, from 100 USD with a 0.1 lot minimum. Both are quoted at up to 1:500 leverage with no per-trade commission, so the cost sits in the spread. No demo account and no swap-free or Islamic account is on record.

None is confirmed. There is no trading platform on record for this broker, and because the website does not load we could not verify any platform, server name or download link. For a retail broker this is a material gap: the platform is the product, and we cannot show that a working one exists.

Up to 1:500 on both the Standard and Professional accounts. Leverage at that level is permitted by the Seychelles regime but is several times what onshore regulators in the UK, the EU or Australia allow retail clients. It magnifies losses as much as gains, and at 1:500 a market move of a fraction of a percent against a fully sized position can erase the margin behind it.

30 USD on the Standard account and 100 USD on the Professional account. Both figures are the values on record for this broker rather than terms we could confirm against the broker's own published pricing, because those pages are not currently reachable.

Two entities appear behind the brand. The company name given for the business is Ven Mar Limited in the Seychelles, at Suite 3, Global Village, Jivan's Complex, Mont Fleuri, Mahe. The entity named as holder of the Seychelles licence is VEN MAR LLC, recorded as an Oregon, United States limited liability company, number 61658598, incorporated on 3 December 2023. We could not confirm either entity on an official corporate register during this review.

Requests to venmarltd.com are answered with an invalid SSL certificate error generated at the origin server. We tried the root domain, the version without the www prefix, plain HTTP and the language-prefixed path, and every one failed the same way. This is a broken server certificate rather than a block on automated visitors, so a human visitor sees the same error. Until it is fixed, no part of the site is readable.

There is no evidence of fraud, and the licence is real rather than fabricated. But VENMAR cannot presently be recommended: its website returns an invalid SSL certificate error from its own origin server and serves no content at all, so the terms, funding policy, legal documents and client portal cannot be reached. A broker you cannot open, read or log into is unusable regardless of whether it intended harm. Our view is high risk and unverified rather than confirmed fraud.

Yes, but offshore only. VENMAR operates under a Derivatives Trading License (EP) from the Seychelles Financial Services Authority, licence number SD188, held by the entity VEN MAR LLC. The licence appears to be in force. It is an offshore, light-touch authorisation and carries no client-money compensation scheme, no deposit guarantee and no negative-balance protection requirement, so it is not comparable to authorisation from a tier-one regulator.
