Independent Exness partner guide
Exness registration: how to sign up and open an account
The sign up takes a few minutes on the official exness.com: an email address and a password, then a short questionnaire — and the Personal Area is ready. Identity verification and the first trading account follow inside it. Every step is below, in order.
Registration
The Exness sign up in three steps
-
Open the official exness.com
The account button on this page opens it through the partner route; typing exness.com directly works just as well. Reading the address bar before entering any details is a simple habit that shuts out phishing copies — look-alike pages built only to collect passwords.
-
Choose an email and password, answer a short questionnaire
The email and password entered here become the Personal Area login later on. The questionnaire is a few screens of basic details and takes minutes — there is nothing to prepare in advance.
-
The Personal Area is created
That completes the registration. The Personal Area is the account dashboard on exness.com: it holds trading accounts, deposits and withdrawals, and the download links for every platform. Identity verification continues inside it, as a separate step.
Identity verification (KYC)
KYC — “know your customer”, the identity check required of brokers — runs inside the Personal Area after registration. It asks for a document that confirms identity; the exact list of accepted documents is shown right there when the check requests them.
Verification runs at its own pace — the Personal Area shows the current status and lists anything still pending.
What comes next
After registration: trading account, platform, demo
Registering creates the Personal Area, not a trading account — that is opened next, and three moves happen inside the dashboard.
Open a trading account — under a platform
Each trading account is opened for a specific platform, MT4 or MT5, and works only there — accounts are not shared across platforms. The trading password is set at this moment and can be reset in the same place later.
Account types in detail →Get the platform — or skip the install
The MT4 and MT5 installers download from the official Exness website without any login. The Web Terminal needs no install at all — it runs the full trading session in a browser tab and works with MT5-based accounts.
Downloads by device →Demo first, before any deposit
A demo account with virtual funds can be opened right after registration — on MT4, MT5, the Web Terminal, and the app. Same market prices, no money at risk: the standard way to test a platform.

Deposit
Minimum deposit: registration itself needs none
The rule is short. Standard and Standard Cent accounts have no minimum deposit — once a trading account exists, it can be funded with any amount. The professional accounts — Pro, Raw Spread, and Zero — have a higher minimum, set by region and shown on the official Exness website.
Amounts by account type, deposit and withdrawal routes, and processing timings are a separate topic with a page of their own: the full deposit and withdrawal guide.
On Cent accounts, balances are counted in cents, so very small real trades are possible.
No deposit to sign up
Registration, identity verification, and the demo all work before any money is added. A deposit enters the picture only when a real trading account is funded — and on Standard and Standard Cent accounts there is no minimum to meet even then.
Trading is risky and may not be suitable for everyone.
Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
What documents does the Exness identity verification ask for?
A document that confirms identity, uploaded in the Personal Area when the check requests it. The exact list of accepted documents is shown inside the Personal Area during verification — the list there is the one that counts, so nothing needs to be guessed in advance.
How long does the Exness registration take?
The sign up itself — email, password, and the short questionnaire — takes a few minutes. Identity verification runs separately in the Personal Area and its timing varies; the current status is always visible there.
Can an Exness account be opened without a deposit?
Yes. Registration requires no deposit, and a demo account with virtual funds is available right after it. When a real account is funded later, Standard and Standard Cent have no minimum deposit; professional accounts have a regional minimum shown on the official Exness website.
What is the difference between a real and a demo account?
A demo account trades virtual funds at the same market prices, so mistakes cost nothing. A real account trades actual money — gains and losses are real. The demo is the standard way to test a platform before the first deposit, and it works on MT4, MT5, the Web Terminal, and the app.
Is the trading account the same as the Personal Area?
No. The Personal Area is the dashboard created at registration; it signs in with the email and password. Trading accounts are opened inside it, each under one platform — MT4 or MT5 — and sign in with a trading account number, a trading password, and a server name. The login guide keeps the two apart.
