Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about this licence

Answered from this register entry and the authority’s own record.

Most Popular Questions
OFX prohibits clients from the USA, North Korea, Iran, and other sanctioned countries from using its services. It primarily serves clients in Australia, Asia-Pacific, and some global regions.
OFX provides customer support through phone, email, and live chat during business hours. Support is available in English, and multiple regional phone numbers are offered. The broker also maintains active social media channels for additional contact.
PU Prime's maximum leverage for major currency pairs typically reaches 1:1000, but actual available levels depend on account type, regulatory constraints, and your account balance. For most retail clients under standard regulatory regimes, higher leverage may be restricted (often around 1:30 to 1:500 depending on region and instrument).
OFX typically charges trading commissions only if you trade certain products or use specific account types; many platforms estimate costs via spreads rather than explicit per-trade commissions. However, actual fees depend on the broker you use with OFX (and the instrument traded, such as forex, CFDs, or other assets) and can include spread costs, overnight financing (swap) charges, and possible platform or withdrawal fees. For precise figures, check the specific OFX partner broker’s fee schedule and your account type.
OFX supports multiple deposit and withdrawal methods depending on the market and currency, including bank transfers and card-based options. Exact available methods and any associated fees or processing times vary by region and the specific OFX service you’re using; please check your local OFX platform or contact support for the precise list of methods, processing times, and any charges for your account.
