Broker Summary
What Wikilix has recorded about Walfiner: its history, the licences it holds, its trading conditions and its fees.
Walfiner Broker Overview
Walfiner is a retail forex and CFD brand operated under the name Walfiner.LTD, registered in Saint Lucia and giving a correspondence address in Downtown Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It offered trading in currencies, indices, energy, metals and cryptocurrencies through MetaTrader 5 and cTrader, with a minimum deposit of 15 USD and leverage up to 1:500. Its website, walfiner.com, no longer resolves, so the brand cannot currently be reached by a client or a prospective client.
Is Walfiner Regulated?
No. WIKILIX found no confirmed financial regulation for Walfiner or for Walfiner.LTD in any jurisdiction, and no licence number that could be tied to a supervisory authority. A Saint Lucia company registration, which is what the brand's stated home jurisdiction offers, is a corporate formality and not a financial licence: it confers no supervision of client money, no capital requirement and no compensation scheme.
Walfiner.LTD
Walfiner.LTD is the only legal entity named for the brand. WIKILIX could not locate it in any official corporate registry, and it holds no record on the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation database at search.gleif.org. Its registration number, incorporation date and registered office therefore remain unconfirmed, and the Dubai address given for the brand is not matched by any registered UAE financial services entity.
Is Walfiner Safe?
Walfiner cannot be treated as safe. There is no confirmed regulator, no verifiable operating company and, as matters stand, no working website. A client with an open balance has no supervisory body to complain to and no confirmed legal entity to pursue.
Walfiner Account Types
Four live accounts were offered: Standard, Premium (ECN), Elite Vip (ECN PRO) and Islamic. The Standard account carried a minimum deposit of 15 USD and commission from 3 USD per lot, with a minimum trade size of 0.01 lots. The Islamic account was the swap free option. Full specifications for the Premium and Elite Vip tiers were not published.
Walfiner Spreads, Commissions and Fees
Spreads were advertised from 0.01 pips, with commission from 3 USD per lot on the Standard account and varying by tier. No schedule of deposit, withdrawal, inactivity or conversion fees was published.
Walfiner Leverage
Maximum leverage was 1:500 across the product range.
Walfiner Trading Platforms
MetaTrader 5 and cTrader were offered, both for desktop and for iOS and Android.
Walfiner Deposits and Withdrawals
PayPal, MasterCard and Bitcoin were named as funding channels, with processing quoted between one hour and one business day. No fee schedule, no per method minimum and no withdrawal limits were published.
Walfiner Pros and Cons
- A low entry point at 15 USD and two established third party platforms.
- A swap free account alongside the standard and ECN styled tiers.
- No confirmed financial regulation anywhere.
- An operating company that could not be found in any corporate registry.
- A website that no longer resolves.
Walfiner Review and Assessment
The commercial offer Walfiner advertised is unremarkable for the offshore segment, and none of it is backed by supervision that would matter if a withdrawal were refused. The decisive consideration is that the entity behind the brand cannot be verified and the site is no longer reachable, which leaves anyone still holding a balance without a practical route to it.
