Apply for an Account
You can open a spread betting account online in minutes, 24 hours a day. Just enter and submit your details and we will automatically open your account, with no forms to sign or documents to send in.
To get started, click the button below and our secure online application form will open in a new browser window. The form takes about two minutes to complete.
Before completing your application, please ensure that you have read our Risk Disclosure Notice and Customer Agreement.
Understand the risks
Please remember that spread betting is a leveraged product and can result in losses that exceed your initial deposit. It may not be suitable for everyone, so please ensure that you fully understand the risks involved.
Privacy
Any details you enter will be encrypted and submitted via our secure server. We will treat all your details in accordance with our Privacy Notice.
In order to open your account we are obliged by our regulator, the Financial Services Authority, to verify your identity. The details you submit will therefore be checked on our behalf by Equifax and/or Experian (this is not a credit check).
Overseas applications
If you live outside the UK, you can use this form to submit your details but we will request further documentation to complete the application for your spread betting account.
What next?
Once you have submitted your application, we will attempt to verify your identity electronically using our automated system. This may take a couple of minutes. If we are successful we will confirm your spread betting account details in an automated email, and you will be able to log in and deal.
If we are unable to verify your identity we will notify you by email together with details of how to complete your application. In either event, we may need to contact you by telephone and/or email.
