Steven Hatzakis is the Global Director of Online Broker Research for ForexBrokers.com. He is a forex industry expert and an active fintech and crypto researcher.
CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 76% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.
Capital.com is best suited for active retail traders and crypto-focused traders seeking broad market access at competitive pricing. It offers a commission-free structure, a low average spread, and the largest crypto CFD library among any forex broker we review, backed by well-built proprietary web and mobile apps. However, the broker does fall short in a few specific areas. There's no Trading Central or Autochartist integration for research, no native copy trading, and no commission-based account for spread-sensitive strategies.
Overall, traders prioritizing low costs, crypto access, and a capable multi-platform setup will find Capital.com well-equipped. However, if advanced research or a commission-based account is a priority for you, I'd suggest one of the other brokers we review, like Saxo or IG.

Trust Score
Developed by ForexBrokers.com and in use for nearly 10 years, Trust Score is a proprietary rating system powered by a range of unique quantitative and qualitative metrics, including each company’s number of regulatory licenses. Trust Scores range from 1 to 99 (the higher a broker’s rating, the better). Learn more.
Is Capital.com safe?
Capital.com is considered Trusted, with an overall Trust Score of 89 out of 99. Capital.com is not publicly traded and does not operate a bank, but is authorised by three Tier-1 regulators (Highly Trusted), three Tier-2 regulators (Trusted), zero Tier-3 regulator (Average Risk), and two Tier-4 regulators (High Risk). Capital.com is authorised by the following Tier-1 regulators: Australian Securities & Investment Commission (ASIC), Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), and regulated in the European Union via the MiFID passporting system . Traders can review Capital.com's full entity-by-entity regulatory structure on the broker's regulations page.

Range of investments
Capital.com's range of investments is extensive. I tested across its full asset menu and counted 5,585 tradeable symbols: 125 forex pairs, 400 cryptocurrency CFDs available for 24/7 trading, share CFDs across the U.S., U.K., Germany, France, Japan, Australia, and more than a dozen other global exchanges, plus indices, commodities, ETFs, thematic index CFDs, and Knockout options as OTC limited-risk alternatives. However, exchange-traded futures and traditional listed options are not available.
Cryptocurrency: Capital.com offers 400 cryptocurrency CFDs, a large number that won our Annual Award in 2026 for #1 Most Cryptos. Note that crypto CFDs are not available to retail traders from any broker's U.K. entity, per FCA restriction.
Share CFDs and 1X: Direct Market Access (DMA) and exchange-traded equities are not available at Capital.com. Cash equities have been replaced by 1X, the broker's non-leveraged share CFD, which carries no overnight funding cost for long positions but does not convey the rights of underlying share ownership. Position sizes on 1X instruments are capped at £20,000. One minor annoyance worth noting is that the platform does not allow filtering by sub-exchange within a country, making it harder to distinguish NASDAQ from NYSE listings on the U.S. tab.
Leverage: Maximum global leverage is 1:500, though availability depends on jurisdiction, account classification, and asset class. Retail clients under the FCA, CySEC, and ASIC are capped at 1:30 for major forex pairs. Clients regulated by the SCB, SCA, or CMA can access up to 1:500 on forex, but with fewer retail protections than Tier-1-regulated accounts. Leverage limits drop significantly for equities, indices, commodities, and crypto CFDs relative to major forex pairs.
Available investment products
During our audit, we verified access to 5,585 tradeable symbols, including 125 forex pairs and 400 cryptocurrency CFDs, alongside CFDs spanning shares, indices, commodities, ETFs, and Knockout options.

Capital.com fees
Capital.com's pricing is extremely competitive. The broker runs a universal account model with one retail account type and a separate professional designation for qualifying traders. All accounts are commission-free, and during my October 2025 testing the average EUR/USD spread came in at 0.64 pips, against the broker's advertised 0.6-pip dynamic spread and well below the industry average.
Active trader rebate: Capital.com recently launched a tiered rebate program that returns a portion of monthly spread costs based on trading volume. Tier 1 (up to $50 million monthly) returns 5%; Tier 2 ($50 million to $150 million) returns 10%; Tier 3 (over $150 million) returns 20%, capped at $10,000 per month. For most retail traders, the 5% tier is the realistic entry point, but the program meaningfully rewards higher-volume activity. Qualifying volume thresholds vary by region, asset class, and instrument type; CFD and spread betting volumes are counted separately from MetaTrader volumes.
Overnight financing: Capital.com applies overnight funding charges to leveraged CFD positions held past the daily close, a standard practice across the industry. The 1X unleveraged share CFD is an exception with no overnight carry cost for long positions, making it more practical for traders who want share exposure without daily financing drag. Rates are listed transparently within each instrument's contract specifications on the platform.
Non-trading fees: No inactivity fee applies, which differentiates Capital.com from brokers that charge annoying account fees after extended inactivity. The broker does not charge international wire fees, though your bank may apply its own transfer costs. The minimum withdrawal is $50 or currency equivalent.
Trading fees
In our live pricing analysis, we confirmed an average EUR/USD spread of 0.64 pips on the standard account alongside a commission-free structure across all platforms, with standard overnight funding applied to leveraged CFD positions and no inactivity fees.

Mobile trading apps
Capital.com's mobile app runs on a clean 5-tab bottom navigation (Home, Watchlist, Portfolio, Search, and News) that makes it straightforward to move between trade execution, research, and portfolio management without hunting through nested menus. One-click trading is configurable from settings, which means entering a position from the favorites list can take as few as two taps. The broker also makes the MetaTrader and TradingView mobile apps available, giving traders two of the most popular third-party mobile platforms alongside its flagship app.
The Capital.com mobile app presents a remarkably clean and intuitive market overview, shown here in its crisp light theme. The Home tab effortlessly organizes the trading day by highlighting major indices like the US Tech 100 alongside a customizable carousel of your favorite assets, complete with quick-glance sparklines for tracking micro-trends. Below, the "Discover markets" section offers seamless navigation into diverse asset classes, from forex to equities, ensuring retail traders can easily build and monitor a diversified portfolio on the go.
Charting: Mobile charts are powered by TradingView, giving you access to 30 built-in indicators, drawing tools including trend lines and Fibonacci tools, and 23 timeframes ranging from 1-second ticks to monthly charts. The 1-second interval is a premium feature rarely offered on mobile. By comparison, on the standalone TradingView platform, it sits behind a paid subscription. There is one notable feature gap, however, since drag-to-modify for stop-loss and take-profit orders are not yet supported on mobile, even though TradingView natively supports it. Chart indicator templates saved on mobile can be loaded on the web platform, though trendlines drawn on the chart do not currently sync cross-device.
Order management: The order ticket supports stop-loss and take-profit placement by price level, dollar amount, or percentage, the same risk-management flexibility I expect from the best mobile platforms. Trailing stops and Guaranteed Stop-Loss Orders (GSLOs) are available, but OCO orders are not. A close-all positions button in the portfolio view is a practical feature for active traders who need to exit quickly, and the portfolio tab supports sorting open positions by P&L, trade size, market type, or alphabetically.
Steven's expert take
"With one-click trading enabled, buying a Gold CFD from the favorites list takes just two taps (select asset, click buy) plus dismissing the confirmation. It's one of the more efficient trade-entry flows I've tested across mobile platforms."
Steven Hatzakis
Director of Online Broker Research
Available mobile platforms and tools
In our hands-on testing, we found 30 built-in charting indicators in the proprietary app alongside TradingView's drawing tools and 23 timeframes, including 1-second intervals, though drag-to-modify order placement on the chart is not yet supported on mobile.

Trading platforms
Capital.com offers four platform options: the proprietary web app, MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, and TradingView as a standalone integration. MT5 is available in select global jurisdictions including the Bahamas, but is not yet offered to U.K. clients. TradingView access uses your existing Capital.com credentials via the broker connection panel.
Charting: Charts are TradingView-powered with 97 indicators, 23 timeframes including 1-second intervals, and a full drawing tools suite. Drag-to-modify is supported on the web app, letting you click and drag stop-loss or take-profit lines directly on the chart to adjust levels. Custom Pine Script imports are not supported within the Capital.com web app itself, but traders can access them via the standalone TradingView connection. The platform layout is not modular and chart windows cannot be detached for multi-monitor setups, though MetaTrader and TradingView both support this for traders who need it.
The Capital.com web platform delivers a highly sophisticated yet well-organized trading environment. The interface is built for multitasking, pairing a EUR/USD chart (with integrated Bollinger Bands) with visually adjustable take-profit and stop-loss levels. On the left, a detailed market watchlist includes quick execution buttons, while the right-hand panel supports granular price alerts and streamlined order management. The cohesive, dark-themed layout keeps technical tools and real-time portfolio data balanced on a single screen, which is ideal for active traders.
Order management: The web order ticket allows stop-loss definition by price level, dollar amount, or percentage, with real-time P&L calculations that update as you adjust risk parameters. Trailing stops and GSLOs are supported. OCO and if-then logic orders are absent from the proprietary platform, and there is no risk-reward ratio display pre-trade. A price depth graphic in the right panel shows the top of the order book for reference; active price ladders for trading are not supported. Account settings allow toggling to hedging mode, which permits opposing positions on the same asset to remain open simultaneously.
Algorithmic trading and API: Backtesting and strategy builder tools are not built into the web app. Algorithmic trading is supported via MetaTrader (Expert Advisors in MQL4 and MQL5), TradingView (Pine Script alerts), or Capital.com's REST and WebSocket API. MetaTrader's symbol count on Capital.com is approximately 232 instruments, a fraction of the 5,585 available on the proprietary platform, which is a meaningful limitation for traders who want MT4 or MT5 as their primary interface.
Available trading platforms and features
Our platform walkthrough verified 97 charting indicators within the proprietary web app alongside drag-to-modify order management, a close-all positions button, and predefined screener watchlists, though the layout does not support detachable windows and OCO orders are unavailable on the proprietary platform.

Research
Capital.com's research offering is more multimedia-driven than many other brokers. The primary channels are a daily video series on YouTube (including the Market Mondays and Market Lens playlists), the Talking Markets Spotify podcast (three episodes published in 2026 at time of review, an inconsistent cadence for an otherwise strong format), and written market analysis on the broker's website.
Capital.com’s commitment to ongoing market education is clearly demonstrated through their active "Market Mondays" YouTube playlist. Featuring over 30 deeply relevant, long-form webinars, the series tackles timely macroeconomic events, from unexpected oil surges to Federal Reserve rate cuts and tech volatility. These regular, high-quality streams offer traders valuable, expert-led insights to contextualize weekly market movements, making it an excellent supplementary resource for those looking to stay informed beyond the trading platform itself.
Economic calendar: The implementation of the economic calendar is one of the better ones I've reviewed in this category. It supports dynamic timeframe filters, custom date ranges, and impact severity ratings. A great feature is the Related Markets toggle where clicking a major event such as an SNB announcement instantly surfaces all correlated instruments, such as CHF pairs, which is a very useful tool for event-driven traders. On the other hand, historical trend charts for individual releases and alert subscriptions for specific events are not available.
Written articles: The written research analysis is comparable in quality to newsroom publications with articles being well-sourced, chart-rich, and specific about underlying data. One caveat is that the website mixes current analysis with older evergreen content, and the Latest News tab would benefit from stricter recency filtering.
Research gaps: Capital.com does not integrate Trading Central, Autochartist, or Acuity Trading. There is no dedicated earnings calendar despite the wide share CFD offering, no macro research reports, and no financial statement data for equities. Direct news search is unavailable, with news accessible only as contextual articles tied to individual assets. Client sentiment is a basic long/short percentage split, useful as a directional indicator but less actionable than providers that isolate sentiment from exclusively profitable traders.
Available research tools
Our analysis found daily video market commentary, a YouTube channel, the Talking Markets podcast, top-tier news sources, and an economic calendar with a Related Markets feature, though the platform lacks Autochartist, Trading Central, a dedicated earnings calendar, and macro research reports.

Education
Capital.com provides one of the more complete education offerings in this category, particularly for traders new to CFD and forex markets. The combination of the dedicated Investmate app, multi-asset web courses, and a substantial YouTube channel covers beginner to intermediate ground well.
Investmate: The dedicated Investmate mobile app is the standout piece. The app opens with a short questionnaire that personalizes the learning path and assigns a tailored challenge before presenting course content. Over 30 self-guided courses, swipeable study cards, integrated quizzes, progress tracking, and daily notifications make it operate more like a structured learning platform than a typical broker education section. The format is engaging for new traders, although content depth thins for more experienced traders who want advanced strategy and market structure analysis beyond the fundamentals.
Web courses and video content: Capital.com's website offers multi-asset courses covering forex, crypto, stocks, CFDs, and commodities across beginner to advanced levels. Content is produced by credentialed staff, including Kyle Rodda, who holds a Tier 1 General Advice license, and Daniela Hathorn, who holds a CFA Level 1 certification. The courses read more as a reference library than a structured learning path, as they lack progress tracking, quizzes, and embedded video. Platform tutorial playlists on YouTube cover the web app (at least six videos) and mobile app (at least 11 videos), alongside hundreds of archived educational and research videos. Live webinars are not currently offered.
The Capital.com website hosts a comprehensive educational hub, highlighted here by their visually engaging "Popular strategies for trading" section. The grid neatly organizes essential methodologies, ranging from day and swing trading to complex hedging and price action tactics, into digestible, specialized guides. Paired with a prominent risk warning at the top, this extensive library demonstrates the broker's strong focus on equipping newer traders with the foundational knowledge required to navigate leveraged markets responsibly.

Final thoughts
Capital.com makes it easy for active retail traders and crypto-focused traders to access a broad market lineup at a competitive cost. Commission-free pricing, a 0.64-pip EUR/USD average, and the 400-plus crypto CFDs that earned Capital.com our 2026 Industry Award for #1 Most Cryptos give the broker a clear edge in those categories.
What holds it back from being among the top brokers in the industry is a combination of specific gaps. There is no Trading Central or Autochartist integration, no native copy trading, and no commission-based account for traders who prefer a flat rate over variable spreads. For traders focused on low-cost CFD and crypto trading across a capable multi-platform setup, Capital.com is a strong choice, but if advanced research or a commission structure is the priority then I'd recommend one of its competitors.
