What is a Multi-Asset Trading Account?

A multi-asset trading account at XM is an account that works similarly to your bank account, but with the difference that it is issued with the purpose of trading currencies, stock indices CFDs, stock CFDs, as well as CFDs on metals and energies.

Multi-asset trading accounts at XM can be opened in Micro, Standard, or XM Ultra Low formats as you can view in the table above.

Please note that multi-asset trading is available only on MT5 accounts, which also allows you access to the XM WebTrader.

In summary, your multi-asset trading account includes

1. Access to the XM Members Area
2. Access to the corresponding platform(s)
3. Access to the XM WebTrader

Similarly to your bank, once you register a multi-asset trading account with XM for the first time, you will be requested to go through a straightforward KYC (Know your Customer) process, which will allow XM to make sure that the personal details you have submitted are correct and ensure the safety of your funds and your account details. Please note that if you already maintain a different XM Account, you will not have to go through the KYC validation process as our system will automatically identify your details.

By opening a trading account, you will be automatically emailed your login details which will give you access to the XM Members Area.

The XM Members area is where you will manage the functions of your account, including depositing or withdrawing funds, viewing and claiming unique promotions, checking your loyalty status, checking your open positions, changing the leverage, accessing support, and accessing the trading tools offered by XM.

Our offerings within the client’s Members Area are provided and constantly enriched with more and more functionalities, allowing our clients more and more flexibility to perform changes or additions to their accounts at any given time, without needing assistance from their personal account managers.

Your multi-asset trading account login details will correspond to a login on the trading platform that matches your type of account, and it is ultimately where you will be performing your trades. Any deposits and/or withdrawals or other setting changes you make from the XM Members Area will reflect on your corresponding trading platform.


Who Should Choose MT4?

MT4 is the predecessor of the MT5 trading platform. At XM, the MT4 platform enables trading on currencies, CFDs on stock indices, as well as CFDs on gold and oil, but it does not offer trading on stock CFDs. Our clients who do not wish to open an MT5 trading account can continue using their MT4 accounts and open an additional MT5 account at any time.

Access to the MT4 platform is available for Micro, Standard, or XM Ultra Low as per the table above.


Who Should Choose MT5?

Clients who choose the MT5 platform have access to a wide range of instruments ranging from currencies, stock indices CFDs, gold and oil CFDs, as well as stock CFDs.

Your login details to the MT5 will also give you access to the XM WebTrader in addition to the desktop (downloadable) MT5 and the accompanying apps.

Access to the MT5 platform is available for Micro, Standard, or XM Ultra Low as shown in the table above.

XM Withdrawal FAQ

What is the withdrawal priority procedure?

To protect all parties against fraud and minimize the possibility of money laundering and/or terrorist financing, XM will only process withdrawals/refunds back to the source of the original deposit according to the Withdrawal Priority Procedure below:
  • Credit/debit card withdrawals. Withdrawal requests submitted, regardless of the withdrawal method chosen, will be processed via this channel up to the total amount deposited by this method.
  • E-wallet withdrawals. E-wallet refunds/withdrawals will be processed once all Credit/Debit card deposits have been completely refunded.
  • Other Methods. All other methods such as bank wire withdrawals shall be used once deposits made with the above two methods have been completely exhausted.

All withdrawal requests will be completed within 24 working hours; however, all withdrawal requests submitted will be instantly reflected in the clients’s trading accounts as pending withdrawals. In case a client selects an incorrect withdrawal method, the client’s request will be processed according to the Withdrawal Priority Procedure described above.

All client withdrawal requests shall be processed in the currency in which the deposit was originally made. Should the deposit currency differ from the transfer currency, the transfer amount will be converted by XM into the transfer currency at the prevailing exchange rate. 


How can I withdraw if my withdrawal amount exceeds the amount I deposited via credit/debit card?

Since we can only transfer the same amount back to your card as the amount you have deposited, profits can be transferred to your bank account via wire transfer. If you have also made deposits via E-wallet, you also have the option to withdraw profits to that same E-wallet.


How long does it take to receive my money after I make a withdrawal request?

Your withdrawal request is processed by our back office within 24 hours. You will receive your money on the same day for payments made via e-wallet, while for payments by bank wire or credit/debit card, it usually takes 2 - 5 business days.


Can I withdraw my money whenever I want?

To withdraw funds, your trading account must be validated. This means that first, you need to upload your documents in our Members Area: Proof of Identity (ID, passport, driving license) and Proof of Residency (utility bill, telephone/Internet/TV bill, or bank statement), which include your address and your name and can’t be older than 6 months.

Once you receive confirmation from our Validation Department that your account has been validated, you can request the fund’s withdrawal by logging in to the Members Area, selecting the Withdrawal tab, and sending us a withdrawal request. It is only possible to send your withdrawal back to the original source of deposit. All withdrawals are processed by our Back Office within 24 hours on business days.


Are there any withdrawal fees?

We do not charge any fees for our deposit/withdrawal options. For instance, if you deposit USD 100 by Skrill and then withdraw USD 100, you will see the full amount of USD 100 in your Skrill account as we cover all transaction fees both ways for you.

This also applies to all credit/debit card deposits. For deposits/withdrawals via international bank wire transfer, XM covers all transfer fees imposed by our banks, except for deposits amounting to less than 200 USD (or equivalent denomination).


If I deposit funds by e-wallet, can I withdraw money to my credit card?

To protect all parties against fraud and in compliance with the applicable laws and regulations for the prevention and suppression of money laundering, our company’s policy is to return clients’s funds to the origin of these funds, and as such the withdrawal will be returned to your e-wallet account. This applies to all withdrawal methods, and the withdrawal has to go back to the source of the funds deposit. 


What is MyWallet?

It is a digital wallet, in other words, a central location where all the funds clients earn from various XM programs are stored.

From MyWallet, you can manage and withdraw funds to the trading account of your choice and view your transaction history.

When transferring funds to an XM trading account, MyWallet is treated as any other payment method. You will still be eligible to receive deposit bonuses under the terms of the XM Bonus Program. For more information, click here. 


Can I withdraw funds directly from MyWallet?

No. You must first send funds to one of your trading accounts before you can withdraw them.

I am looking for a specific transaction in MyWallet, how can I find it?
You can filter your transaction history by ‘Transaction Type’, ‘Trading Account’, and ‘Affiliate ID’ using the dropdowns in your dashboard. You can also sort transactions by ‘Date’ or ‘Amount’, in ascending or descending order, by clicking on their respective column headers.


Can I deposit to/withdraw from my friend’s/relative’s account?

As we are a regulated company, we do not accept deposits/withdrawals made by third parties. Your deposit can only be made from your own account, and the withdrawal has to go back to the source where the deposit was made.


If I withdraw money from my account, can I also withdraw the profit made with the bonus? Can I withdraw the bonus at any stage?

The bonus is for trading purposes only, and cannot be withdrawn. We offer you the bonus amount to help you open larger positions and allow you to hold your positions open for a longer period. All profits made with the bonus can be withdrawn at any time.


Is it possible to transfer money from one trading account to another trading account?

Yes, this is possible. You can request an internal transfer between two trading accounts, but only if both accounts have been opened under your name and if both trading accounts have been validated. If the base currency is different, the amount will be converted. Internal transfer can be requested in the Members Area, and it is instantly processed.


What will happen to the bonus if I use internal transfer?

In this case, the bonus will be credited proportionally.


I used more than one deposit option, how can I withdraw now?

If one of your deposit methods has been a credit/debit card, you always need to request a withdrawal up to the deposit amount, as before any other withdrawal method. Only in case that amount deposited via credit/debit card is fully refunded back to the source, you may select another withdrawal method, according to your other deposits.


Are there any extra fees and commissions?

At XM we do not charge any fees or commissions. We cover all transaction fees (with bank wire transfers for amounts over 200 USD).
