    Question Advice needed to Fund my account.

    Hello,
    This is Kevin and I am planning to fund my micro account.How ever I have a small issue to sort out.
    I used to live in the US and I still have a US credit card as I have family living there.

    As I have moved out of the US and my account is a FXCM UK account can I still use my US credit card to fund my account?.(The reason is it will be easy for me to fund in USD)

    The name on my credit card will match my name in the trading account but the billing address will be a US address.

    Any help will be truly appreciated.

    Regards,
    Kevin

    Hello kevin000, and thank you for your post! On behalf of myself and everyone here at FXCM, welcome to the forum community!


    Can I fund my FXCM Micro account with a United States credit / debit card even though my country of residence is outside of the Unites States?

    Yes absolutely! As long as the name on your card marches the name on your trading account then you can deposit with it. FXCM accepts Visa and Mastercards with three digit security codes on the back that are not prepaid cards or gift cards. The card needs to be a credit or debit card that you receive statements / bills for, as these sources of funds can be verified. Please click on the link below that corresponds to the account you have for more information about depositing funds:


    Just so everyone is aware, FXCM cannot accept any payments via a third party. We can neither guarantee the receipt nor the return of such payments. This is in order to prevent money laundering.

    Please let me know when you have made the deposit, and I would be more than happy to help expedite the process for you. Thank you in advance for your time and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
