Getting Started with TIOmarkets
This page shows you how to open an account, get verified, fund it, and where to go if you need help.
Step 1: Open your account
Estimated time: A few minutes
Creating your TIOmarkets account only takes a few minutes. Our streamlined registration process requires only the minimum information to get started. Once registered, you'll have access to your secure client area to manage your account and funds.
You can fund and start trading immediately with a 14 day grace period to verify your account.
Open an accountStep 2: Verify your account
Estimated time: Typically a few hours to one business day, instant for some countries
Before you can withdraw funds and within 14 days of funding your account, we need to verify your identity. This industry standard process protects both you and our platform from unauthorized access and financial fraud.
In the client area, you will be asked for:
- ✓A valid photo ID (example: passport, driver's license, or national ID card)
- ✓A full-page proof of address showing your name and address (example: utility bill or bank statement, issued within the last 3 months)
Verification typically takes a few hours and up to one business day during busy periods. Most verification delays happen because documents are cropped, unclear, incomplete or out of date. Ensure your copies of documents show all four corners and all information is clearly visible and readable. In some countries, digital and instant verification is available and our team will only check documents manually when required.
