Achiever Global Markets review.

Overview

TrueBroker is a free broker safety checker, and this page is our review of Achiever Global Markets, scored 4.9 out of 10 across regulation, fees, platform, support and reviews. Achiever Global Markets trades as “Achiever FX” through the website achieverfx.com, run by an entity styled Achiever Global Markets LTD and describing itself as based in Saint Lucia, with an office address given on its contact page as Suite 4, Mall Road, Rodney Bay, Gros-Islet, Saint Lucia.

The single thing to know before anything else: we found no licence to deal in forex or CFDs anywhere in the material we fetched. What we did find, on the Saint Lucia Registry of International Business Companies name search, is a company registration for “Achiever Global Markets LTD. (IBC)” marked as an International Business Company. A company registration is not a trading licence, and the firm’s own root page carries a customer testimonial calling it a “licensed & regulated broker” that nothing else in its own Terms, Legal or Risk Disclosure pages supports.

Overview Table

Facts List

• The Standard account carries a $250 minimum deposit, spreads “From 1.4 pips,” no commission, leverage up to 1:500 and runs on MT5, per the firm’s own root page.
• The VIP account steps the minimum deposit up to $10,000 for spreads “From 0.9 pips” and leverage capped lower, at up to 1:200, per the same page.
• The ECN Pro account requires a $25,000 minimum deposit, quotes spreads “From 0.2 pips” plus a $7 per lot commission, and leverage up to 1:100.
• The firm’s fee page sets an inactivity charge equal to any banking fees incurred, or 3% of the total withdrawal amount, applied where a deposit was made but no trades followed, or where a client withdraws having traded less than 5 standard lots since depositing.
• Withdrawals go back only “to the same source the Company received the deposits from,” per the fee page, so a client cannot redirect funds to a different account or method.
• The firm’s Risk Disclosure states client funds may be passed to a third party and held in an omnibus account “and it may not be possible to separate it from the Client’s money, or the third party’s money,” with no liability accepted for that third party’s insolvency, directly at odds with the root page’s marketing line that funds are “held in fully segregated accounts, completely separate from company operational funds.”
• The root page advertises “24/7 Support” and “24/7 Live Support,” while the Contact page’s own published hours are Monday to Friday 8AM to 6PM with Saturday and Sunday marked Closed.
• The root page states “70+ major, minor and exotic currency pairs,” while the firm’s Markets page states “40+ currency pairs” in two separate places, on the firm’s own site.
• We searched 1,441 warning-list entries mirrored from CYSEC, the FCA and FSC Mauritius, and Achiever Global Markets appears on none of them; we ran a positive control against a firm known to be listed before relying on that empty result.
• The firm’s Terms and Conditions cap its own liability, “at our option,” at resupplying the website or paying for that resupply, regardless of a client’s actual trading loss, and set Saint Lucia as the governing law with disputes going to “the competent courts of Saint Lucia.”

What the Saint Lucia register shows for Achiever Global Markets

We searched the Saint Lucia Registry of International Business Companies directly. The free name search lists “Achiever Global Markets LTD. (IBC)” as an International Business Company, but it publishes no registration number, incorporation date or status through the free search; that detail sits behind a paid, account-only lookup. The number the firm itself quotes, 2023-00255, was not something we could verify against the register through that free search, and in any case an IBC registration is a company registration, not a licence to deal in forex or CFDs. We found no separate financial-services licence for this firm in any of the material we reviewed.

Why the score moved

Our previous review scored Achiever Global Markets 3.7/10. This review scores it 4.9/10. That is a change in our own assessment against current evidence, not a claim that the firm’s setup improved or worsened between reviews. Regulation is held to a bare 1 out of 10 here because the only register match is an unverified company registration rather than a trading licence, and the firm’s own site hosts a “licensed & regulated” testimonial that nothing in its Terms, Legal or Risk Disclosure pages backs up. Fees score higher, at 6.2, because the firm publishes a specific tiered fee and account structure, including the inactivity charge terms, that we could read directly. Platform sits at 6.5 on the strength of a fully described MT5 offering, set against two other named platforms, the Achiever App and RTX5 App, that our evidence gives no detail on. Support lands at 5.8 given named, working contact channels weighed against the gap between the site’s “24/7” marketing and its own published weekday-only hours. Reviews scores 5.1, informed by the clean result across the 1,441 mirrored warning-list entries we checked, set against the contradictions we found between the firm’s marketing claims and its own legal terms on fund segregation and support availability.

Key Takeaways

Our previous score for Achiever Global Markets was 3.7 out of 10. This review scores it 4.9 out of 10, restated from the current evidence below rather than from any change in the firm itself, because the criteria and the underlying material both moved since the last pass.

Regulation scores 1 out of 10

• We searched the Saint Lucia Registry of International Business Companies directly. It lists “Achiever Global Markets LTD. (IBC)” as an International Business Company, but the free name search publishes no registration number, incorporation date or status, since those sit behind a paid, account only search. The 2023 00255 number quoted elsewhere could not be verified against that record.
• An IBC registration is a company registration, not a licence to deal in forex or CFDs, and no licence appears anywhere in the pages we read.
• The firm’s own root page carries a reproduced Google Review stating “Its been 1 year dealing with Achiever Global as a licensed & regulated broker,” yet none of the About, Terms, Legal or Risk Disclosure pages we read makes any licensing claim of its own. Only the Saint Lucia company registration is disclosed.
• We searched 1441 warning list entries mirrored from CYSEC, the FCA and the FSC Mauritius, running a positive control against a firm known to be listed before treating any empty result as meaningful. Achiever Global Markets appears on none of the 1441 entries. That is a clean result within the three lists we mirror, not a finding about every regulator worldwide.

What Achiever Global Markets charges

• The Standard account, per the firm’s own account page, opens at a $250 minimum deposit with spreads from 1.4 pips, no commission, leverage up to 1:500 and MT5 as the platform.
• The VIP account requires a $10,000 minimum, spreads from 0.9 pips, no commission and leverage up to 1:200.
• The ECN Pro account requires $25,000, spreads from 0.2 pips, a $7 per lot commission and leverage up to 1:100.
• The fee page we read describes an inactivity charge: if a deposit is made with no trading activity, or the client withdraws after trading fewer than 5 standard lots since depositing, the firm applies either the equivalent of any banking fees it incurred or 3% of the total withdrawal amount.
• The same fee page states withdrawals are only paid back “to the same source the Company received the deposits from,” so a client who deposited by card is refunded to that card, with profit potentially routed by bank wire instead. There is no option in the material we read to choose a different withdrawal destination.

Terms that bind a client

• Section 7 of the terms and conditions caps the firm’s liability for negligence or breach of contract, at its option, to “resupplying this website or any part of it to you, or to paying for the resupply of this website,” regardless of what the client actually lost.
• Sections 8 and 9 route any unresolved dispute to negotiation and then to “the competent courts of Saint Lucia,” an offshore venue for a client based anywhere else.
• Section 11 lets the firm revise the terms “at any time at its sole discretion,” effective immediately on publication, with continued use of the site counted as acceptance and no direct notice to the client required.
• The fee page’s withdrawal procedure gives the firm “the right in its absolute discretion” to request further documents before paying out, and to cancel or hold a withdrawal “without prior notification” pending that review.
• Section 3 of the Risk Disclosure states client funds may be passed to a third party that “may hold it in an omnibus account and it may not be possible to separate it from the Client’s money, or the third party’s money,” with no liability accepted by the firm if that third party becomes insolvent. That sits against the marketing line on the root page promising funds “held in fully segregated accounts, completely separate from company operational funds,” a direct contradiction between the firm’s own marketing and its own legal terms.
• Section 2.8 of the Risk Disclosure states the firm “has no responsibility if authorized/unauthorised third persons have access to Client’s information,” which covers even breach related access to personal and account data.
• The Risk Disclosure also warns of “a possibility that you could sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and be required to deposit additional funds to maintain your position,” with no statement in any page we read of negative balance protection.

Other contradictions on the firm’s own site

• The root page advertises “24/7 Support” and “24/7 Live Support, Real humans, always on,” while the Contact page publishes support hours of Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 18:00, with Saturday and Sunday marked closed.
• Stated forex pair counts differ across the firm’s own pages: the root page claims “70+ major, minor and exotic currency pairs,” while the Markets page says “40+ currency pairs” in two separate places.
• The platform pages we fetched cover MT5 in detail, listing market order execution, over 80 indicators, a 50% stop out level, one click trading, full EA and MQL5 support, VPS hosting and availability across Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and a browser web trader. An “Achiever App” and an “RTX5 App” are named in the site’s platform navigation menu, but no dedicated page content on either was fetched.

Licenses & Regulation

Achiever Global Markets LTD trades as “Achiever FX” from achieverfx.com and gives Saint Lucia as its base, per the firm’s own terms and conditions page. That is the only jurisdiction attached to the business anywhere in the pages we fetched. No licence, permission or regulator is named on the About, Terms, Legal or Risk Disclosure pages we read.

What Saint Lucia’s registry actually shows for Achiever Global Markets

The firm’s terms and conditions page quotes a registration number, 2023-00255. We searched the Saint Lucia Registry of International Business Companies (Pinnacle St. Lucia) directly, running a positive control against a firm known to be listed first so that a clean result would mean something. “Achiever Global Markets LTD. (IBC)” does come up on that name search, marked as an International Business Company. That confirms the entity exists on the register. It does not confirm the number: the free name search does not publish a registration number, incorporation date or status at all, since those sit behind a paid, account-only search, so the quoted 2023-00255 was not something we could verify against the register. More to the point, an IBC registration is a company incorporation, not a licence to deal in forex or CFDs. Saint Lucia’s IBC regime is a corporate registry, not a financial regulator, and nothing in the register listing or in the firm’s own pages describes any authorisation to handle client money or provide investment services.

A “licensed and regulated” claim the firm’s own pages don’t make

The root page reproduces a Google Review reading “Its been 1 year dealing with Achiever Global as a licensed & regulated broker.” That line appears on the firm’s own site, in a testimonial the firm chose to display. It is not backed up anywhere else in our evidence: the About, Terms, Legal and Risk Disclosure pages we read make no licensing or regulatory claim of their own, and disclose nothing beyond the Saint Lucia company registration covered above. A testimonial calling the firm “licensed & regulated” sitting next to legal pages that never make that claim themselves is worth flagging on its own terms.

Segregation claim contradicted by Achiever Global Markets’ own risk terms

The root marketing page states, with a lock icon, under the heading “Segregated Client Funds”: “Your funds are held in fully segregated accounts, completely separate from company operational funds.” Section 3 of the firm’s own Risk Disclosure says the opposite in substance: Achiever Global Markets LTD may pass funds received from the Client to a third party… [which] may hold it in an omnibus account and it may not be possible to separate it from the Client’s money, or the third party’s money, and the same section disclaims the firm’s liability if that third party becomes insolvent. A reader relying on the marketing line to judge how their deposit is held would be relying on a claim the firm’s own legal terms directly undercut.

Geographic reach and exclusions

The root page lists no services for citizens or residents of the United States, Cuba, Iraq, Myanmar, North Korea, the United Arab Emirates or Sudan, and the terms and conditions page separately states the site is not directed at, and not for use by, residents of the United States or the United Arab Emirates or any jurisdiction where use would be contrary to local law.

Warning-list search

We checked the firm’s name against 1,441 warning-list entries mirrored from CySEC, the FCA and the FSC Mauritius. Achiever Global Markets appears on none of them. That’s a clean result worth stating plainly, but it only covers the three regulators we mirror; it says nothing about any other regulator’s warning list, and a clean warning-list search is not the same thing as holding a licence anywhere.

What this means for the regulation score

Our previous review of this broker scored it 3.7/10 overall; this review scores it 4.9/10 overall, with regulation itself scored 1/10. The regulation score reflects what the register check above actually established: a company incorporation in an offshore jurisdiction, no licence or regulatory permission named anywhere in the firm’s own pages, an unverifiable registration number, and a “licensed & regulated” claim that sits in a customer testimonial rather than in anything the firm states about itself. The overall move to 4.9 comes from this review’s own reassessment of current evidence, drawing on the pages, the register search and the warning-list check above, not from any change at the firm.

How to Trade

Achiever Global Markets, trading as Achiever FX, lists its tradable range differently depending on which of its own pages is read. The root marketing page advertises “70+ major, minor and exotic currency pairs with spreads from 0.2 pips,” while the firm’s own Markets page gives “40+ currency pairs with ultra-low spreads from 0.2 pips and 24/5 market access.” Alongside forex, the same pages describe commodities (“Gold, Silver, Oil and more”), grouped on the Markets page as Energy Futures and Precious Metals CFDs; crypto CFDs on “Bitcoin, Ethereum and top altcoins”; indices, which the root page says trade “without commission” and the Markets page counts at “10 global indices”; and a Markets page tile for “65+ share CFDs.” All of it trades as CFDs through the account structure below, not as the underlying instrument.

Achiever Global Markets’ account tiers

The firm’s own root page sets out three tiers. Standard opens at a $250 minimum deposit, with spreads “From 1.4 pips,” no commission, leverage up to 1:500, and swap-free trading on MT5. VIP requires $10,000 minimum, spreads “From 0.9 pips,” no commission, leverage capped lower at up to 1:200, and is marked swap-free with an asterisk that the page does not explain. ECN Pro sits at a $25,000 minimum, spreads “From 0.2 pips,” a stated commission of $7 per lot, leverage up to 1:100, and swap charges apply rather than being waived. Reading the three side by side, the pricing model flips as the deposit rises: the cheapest account to open pays the widest spread with no commission and the most leverage, while the account with the tightest spread charges a per-lot commission, carries swap, and caps leverage lowest.

Platforms and execution

The Platforms page names MetaTrader 5 as the execution venue, describing “Market Order” execution, a 50% stop-out level, one-click trading, full EA/MQL5 functionality, VPS hosting, and availability on Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and a browser-based Web Trader that needs no install. The root page’s navigation menu also lists an “Achiever App” and an “RTX5 App” as separate platform options alongside MT5, but no dedicated page content for either was fetched, so nothing further can be said about what they actually offer. A Client Portal at portal.achieverfx.com is given on the Contact page as the login and account-management point.

What binds a position once it’s open

The firm’s Risk Disclosure states plainly: “There is a possibility that you could sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and be required to deposit additional funds to maintain your position. If you fail to meet any margin requirement, your position may be liquidated and you will be responsible for any resulting losses.” Nothing in the pages fetched for this review states any negative-balance protection, so a client’s exposure under the firm’s own terms is not described as capped at the funds deposited. That sits against the stop-out level of 50% given on the Platforms page, which is the mechanical trigger for the liquidation the Risk Disclosure describes.

Trading activity also feeds back into cost. The fee page states that an inactivity or low-volume charge applies if there was successful deposit but no trading activity, or if the client withdraws after trading less than 5 standard lots since deposit, set at the equivalent of any banking fees incurred or 3% of the total withdrawal amount. A client who deposits, trades lightly, and then withdraws is charged on the way out for not having traded enough on the way in.

Client money placement is also relevant to how a position is actually held. The root page’s marketing states funds are “held in fully segregated accounts, completely separate from company operational funds,” but the firm’s own Risk Disclosure (section 3, Third Party Risk) says the firm may pass funds received from the Client to a third party… [which] may hold it in an omnibus account and it may not be possible to separate it from the Client’s money, or the third party’s money, and disclaims liability if that third party becomes insolvent. Those two statements, both from the firm’s own site, describe different arrangements for the same funds.

On withdrawing after a trade closes, the fee page ties the payout route to the funding route rather than letting the client choose: money is returned “to the same source the Company received the deposits from,” meaning card deposits are refunded to the same card and profits may instead go out by bank wire. The Withdrawal Procedure section also gives the firm “the right in its absolute discretion” to request further documents before paying out, and to cancel or hold a withdrawal request “without prior notification” pending that review.

Account Types

Achiever Global Markets, trading as Achiever FX, sells account tiers. The firm’s own account page lists them by minimum deposit, spread and leverage rather than by any named “challenge” or promotional structure.

The three tiers on Achiever FX’s own pricing page

All three run on MT5, and the firm’s own root page attaches the same asterisk to VIP’s swap-free status that it does not attach to Standard’s, without the page content we fetched explaining what the asterisk qualifies.

Read across the row, the entry-level Standard account carries the widest quoted spread and no per-lot commission, while ECN Pro carries the tightest quoted spread, a $7-per-lot commission on top, and swap charges that the other two tiers waive. The leverage cap drops as the deposit requirement rises: Standard offers up to 1:500 on a $250 minimum, VIP drops to 1:200 on a $10,000 minimum, and ECN Pro drops further to 1:100 on a $25,000 minimum, the opposite direction from the spread and commission columns.

What Achiever Global Markets charges for inactivity

The firm’s fee page sets a charge tied to trading volume rather than to the account tier itself: if a client deposits successfully but never trades, or withdraws after trading less than 5 standard lots since depositing, Achiever Global Markets applies the equivalent of any banking fees incurred, or 3% of the total withdrawal amount, per the fee page. Nothing in the fee page ties this threshold to a specific one of the three tiers, so it appears to sit on top of all of them equally.

How money moves in and out

The fee page describes withdrawals as returning “to the same source the Company received the deposits from”: a card deposit is refunded back to the same card, and profit withdrawals, or card withdrawals made after the card issuer’s refund window has closed, go out by bank wire instead. A client cannot nominate a different payout destination than the one they funded with. The same fee page gives the Company “the right in its absolute discretion” to request further information or documents before processing a withdrawal, and to cancel or hold a request “without prior notification” pending that information, on any of the three tiers.

What is missing from the tier pages

The account page we fetched sets out spread, commission, leverage and swap terms for each tier but says nothing about inactivity fees, which sit instead on the separate fee page; nothing in either page ties the 5-lot volume threshold to a named tier. Nor does either page mention a demo account, a copy-trading or Islamic-account variant, or any promotional credit attached to opening or funding one of the three tiers; the pages we fetched describe Standard, VIP and ECN Pro purely in terms of spread, commission, leverage and swap, and say nothing about bonuses or promotions one way or the other.

Negative Balance Protection

Achiever Global Markets’ own Risk Disclosure, on the firm’s Legal page, is direct about what happens if a trade moves against a client: “There is a possibility that you could sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and be required to deposit additional funds to maintain your position. If you fail to meet any margin requirement, your position may be liquidated and you will be responsible for any resulting losses.” That is the whole of what the fetched pages say about loss limits. The document describes a client staying on the hook for losses beyond the margin already deposited, and it says nothing, anywhere in our evidence we read, about negative-balance protection capping that liability at zero.

What Achiever Global Markets’ MT5 setup does at the margin edge

The firm’s Platforms page lists MetaTrader 5 as the sole trading platform with content behind it, and gives a Stop Out Level of 50%. Stop-out is the mechanical trigger that forces position closure once account equity falls to that percentage of required margin; it is a platform setting, not a promise about where a client’s balance can end up afterward. Nothing on the Platforms page, the account-types table, or the Risk Disclosure connects that 50% figure to any guarantee that the account cannot go negative once positions are closed out.

Leverage varies sharply by account tier

The account-types table on the root page sets leverage at up to 1:500 on the $250-minimum Standard account, up to 1:200 on the $10,000 VIP account, and up to 1:100 on the $25,000 ECN Pro account. Higher leverage means a smaller adverse price move consumes the same margin, and the Standard account, the one requiring the smallest deposit and presumably drawing the most retail clients, carries the highest leverage of the three. The same table records the Standard and VIP accounts as swap-free and commission-free, priced through spread alone, while ECN Pro carries a $7-per-lot commission and swap charges; none of that pricing detail changes what the Risk Disclosure says about liability for losses beyond margin.

Where liability sits if the loss traces back to the firm’s own systems or a third party

Section 7 of the Terms and Conditions, “Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability,” caps what the firm owes a client for its own negligence, breach of contract or breach of law: Our liability for negligence, breach of contract or contravention of any law… is limited, at our option… to resupplying this website or any part of it to you, or to paying for the resupply of this website. Read against the margin-liquidation language above, the asymmetry is stark: the client is responsible for losses arising from liquidation, while the firm’s own exposure for its own fault is capped at re-supplying a website.

Section 3 of the Risk Disclosure, “Third Party Risk,” adds a further layer relevant to whether a client’s funds are even safe from someone else’s failure: Achiever Global Markets LTD may pass funds received from the Client to a third party… [which] may hold it in an omnibus account and it may not be possible to separate it from the Client’s money, or the third party’s money. The same clause disclaims the firm’s liability for losses caused by that third party’s insolvency. That sits awkwardly next to a marketing line on the firm’s own root page that promises, under the heading “Segregated Client Funds”, that “Your funds are held in fully segregated accounts, completely separate from company operational funds.” The Risk Disclosure and the marketing page make different claims about the same thing, and the Risk Disclosure is the document that binds a client.

What the fee page adds around withdrawal

None of the loss-limit language changes what happens to money on the way out. The Fees page gives the Company “the right in its absolute discretion” to request further information or documents before a withdrawal, and permits it to cancel or hold a withdrawal request “without prior notification” pending that information. A client trying to withdraw remaining balance after a margin call, or after deciding to stop trading, is subject to that same discretion, on top of the inactivity charge the same page sets out: the equivalent of any banking fees incurred, or 3% of the withdrawal amount, applied where a deposit was made but no trading followed, or where a client withdraws after trading less than 5 standard lots since depositing.

The regulatory backdrop to all of this

We searched the Saint Lucia International Business Companies register directly and confirmed “Achiever Global Markets LTD. (IBC)” appears on the free name search as an International Business Company; that free search does not publish a registration number, incorporation date or status behind it, and an IBC registration is a company filing, not a licence to deal in forex or CFDs. We found no entry for the firm across the 1,441 warning-list records we mirror from CySEC, the FCA and the FSC Mauritius. Neither result establishes that a regulator has reviewed or approved this firm’s margin, leverage or client-money arrangements, which is the backdrop against which the Risk Disclosure’s language about liability for losses beyond margin, and the gap between that document and the “segregated funds” marketing claim, should be read.

Trading Instruments

Achiever Global Markets, trading as Achiever FX, advertises five groups of CFD instruments across its own pages: forex, commodities, crypto, indices and stocks. The firm’s root page and its separate Markets page both describe these groups, but the two pages disagree with each other on how much is actually on offer, which matters more than the headline list itself.

What Achiever Global Markets says is tradable

• Forex: the root page advertises “70+ major, minor and exotic currency pairs with spreads from 0.2 pips,” while the Markets page, on the same site, gives “40+ currency pairs with ultra-low spreads from 0.2 pips and 24/5 market access” in two separate places.
• Commodities: the root page offers “Gold, Silver, Oil and more with ultra-tight spreads and high liquidity”; the Markets page sorts these into Energy Futures and Precious Metals CFDs rather than giving a count.
• Crypto CFDs: the root page promises exposure to “Bitcoin, Ethereum and top altcoins” via CFD trading, again with no instrument count.
• Indices: the root page names “S&P 500, Nasdaq, FTSE 100 and global indices” tradable “without commission,” while the Markets page puts the total at “10 global indices.”
• Stocks: only the Markets page covers these, as “65+ share CFDs,” with no equivalent claim on the root page.

Where the numbers don’t match

A firm’s own root page and its own Markets page giving different pair counts for the same forex offering, 70+ against 40+, is not a rounding difference; it is two different figures published by the same site for the same product. The indices claim has a comparable gap: an open-ended “global indices” pitch on the homepage next to a specific “10 global indices” figure on the Markets page. We read both pages directly and neither corrects or reconciles the other, so a trader sizing up the actual product range has to pick which of the firm’s own numbers to believe.

Account tiers and the leverage attached to them

The root page lists three account tiers, and each carries a different maximum leverage rather than leverage being fixed by instrument: Standard, from a $250 minimum deposit, up to 1:500; VIP, from $10,000, up to 1:200; and ECN Pro, from $25,000, up to 1:100. All three route through MT5. None of the account-tier descriptions or the instrument pages state a per-asset leverage cap, so the ceiling a trader gets depends on which account they fund, not on what they are trading.

What the risk terms say about holding these positions

The firm’s own Risk Disclosure, which we read directly, warns that “there is a possibility that you could sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and be required to deposit additional funds to maintain your position. If you fail to meet any margin requirement, your position may be liquidated and you will be responsible for any resulting losses.” None of the pages we fetched, including the account-tier and platform pages, state negative-balance protection for any of the three tiers or any instrument group. A trader using the higher leverage available on the Standard tier is taking on that liquidation and shortfall risk on the firm’s own account terms, not just on the instrument’s general volatility.

Execution venue for all of it

Every instrument group listed above trades through MetaTrader 5, the only execution platform the firm’s Platforms page describes in any detail: market-order execution, a 50% stop-out level, one-click trading, full EA and MQL5 support, and availability on Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and a browser-based Web Trader. The navigation menu on the root page also lists an “Achiever App” and an “RTX5 App” alongside MT5, but neither has a dedicated page in the material we fetched, so we cannot say what, if anything, they add for trading these asset classes beyond what MT5 already covers.

Education & Analysis

The firm runs MetaTrader 5, according to Achiever Global Markets’ own platforms page, and nothing else in the pages fetched. Two other names appear alongside it in the site’s own Platform navigation menu, an “Achiever App” and an “RTX5 App”, but no dedicated page content for either was fetched, so what they actually are and what they cost stays unknown from our evidence. There’s also a Client Portal at portal.achieverfx.com, given on the Contact page as the login and client-area address, which is account administration rather than a trading or charting tool.

What Achiever Global Markets says MT5 includes

The platforms page describes MT5 here as Market Order execution, a 50% stop-out level, one-click trading, full Expert Advisor and MQL5 functionality, and VPS hosting, alongside “80+ indicators/analytical tools.” It’s offered across Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and a browser-based Web Trader that needs no install. That’s a standard MT5 build with no feature list specific to this firm beyond the numbers quoted, and our evidence contains no separate page confirming how the VPS is provisioned, what it costs, or what conditions apply to get it.

The instrument range around the charts

What a platform is worth for analysis depends on what’s actually tradable through it, and here the firm’s own pages disagree with themselves. The root page advertises “70+ major, minor and exotic currency pairs with spreads from 0.2 pips,” while the Markets page gives “40+ currency pairs with ultra-low spreads from 0.2 pips and 24/5 market access.” Both figures come from Achiever Global Markets’ own site; they just don’t match each other, so a trader working from the marketing copy can’t be sure which count to trust. Beyond forex, the root page lists commodities (“Gold, Silver, Oil and more”), crypto CFDs (Bitcoin, Ethereum and “top altcoins”), and indices (“S&P 500, Nasdaq, FTSE 100 and global indices without commission”), while the Markets page separately tiles commodities into Energy Futures and Precious Metals CFDs, narrows indices to “10 global indices,” and adds “65+ share CFDs” for stocks, a category not mentioned on the root page at all.

Account tiers and what changes for chart users

The three account tiers Achiever Global Markets lists on its root page all run on the same MT5 platform, so tooling and chart access don’t change between them; what changes is cost and leverage. Standard, at a $250 minimum deposit, quotes spreads “from 1.4 pips” with no commission and leverage up to 1:500. VIP, at $10,000, quotes spreads “from 0.9 pips,” no commission, and leverage capped lower at up to 1:200. ECN Pro, at $25,000, quotes spreads “from 0.2 pips” with a $7 per-lot commission and leverage up to 1:100. Since MT5 is the platform across all three, a trader isn’t buying better charting by moving up tiers, only tighter quoted spreads and a different leverage ceiling.

Support hours for platform issues

The Contact page gives specific support hours: Monday to Friday 8AM to 6PM, with Saturday and Sunday both marked Closed. That’s worth noting here because the root page separately advertises “24/7 Support” and “24/7 Live Support”, with the line “Real humans, always on.” Those two claims, both from the firm’s own site, don’t reconcile, and it matters for a CFD platform where weekend gaps and after-hours crypto activity are exactly when a trader might need to reach someone about a stuck order or a platform problem.

What we didn’t find

Our evidence we fetched has no dedicated pages for the Achiever App or RTX5 App, so we can’t report what charting tools, indicator sets, or order types either one actually offers beyond their names appearing in the site’s navigation. We also found no page describing any third-party or proprietary charting package beyond MT5’s own built-in tools, and no page addressing algorithmic trading limits, copy-trading, or social-trading features one way or the other.

Special Offers

The pages we read for this firm are the root marketing page, the fees page, the accounts breakdown, the platforms page, the markets page, the contact page, the terms and conditions and the risk disclosure. What the fee and account pages describe is a pricing structure built entirely on spread, commission and one volume-linked charge, and that is what this section reports.

How Achiever Global Markets prices its three tiers

Three tiers are listed, each defined by minimum deposit and trading cost rather than by any introductory credit. Standard requires a $250 minimum deposit, spreads “from 1.4 pips,” no commission, leverage up to 1:500, and is marked swap free, on MT5. VIP requires $10,000, spreads “from 0.9 pips,” no commission, leverage up to 1:200, and is marked swap free with an asterisk that the page does not explain. ECN Pro requires $25,000, spreads “from 0.2 pips,” a $7 per-lot commission, leverage up to 1:100, and swap charges apply. Every one of those figures comes from the firm’s own account-types page.

The one condition tied to trading volume

The closest thing to a volume-based condition in our evidence runs the other way: the fees page sets an inactivity and low-trading-volume withdrawal charge equal to “any banking fees incurred, or 3% of the total withdrawal amount,” triggered either when a deposit was made with no trading activity at all, or when a client withdraws after trading less than 5 standard lots since that deposit. That is a penalty for under-trading before withdrawal, not a reward for hitting a volume target, but it is the only place in the fee material where a lot-volume threshold determines what a client pays. Anyone weighing the $250 Standard tier against this clause is looking at a real cost if they deposit and then withdraw without clearing 5 lots first.

What the fees page says about how money moves

The same fees page ties withdrawal method to deposit method rather than to any promotional routing: card deposits are withdrawn back to the same card, and wire transfer is used for profit withdrawals and for card withdrawals where the card issuer’s refund window has closed. There is no separate promotional payment channel or bonus-funds wallet described anywhere in the fee material we read.

Because the pages we fetched include no promotions page, this section cannot describe current offer terms, expiry dates or wagering conditions, since none of that content was among the pages available to check. What can be said, from the pages that were checked, is that Achiever Global Markets prices its three account tiers on deposit, spread, commission and leverage alone, and backs that pricing with a withdrawal charge keyed to a 5-lot trading threshold rather than to any promotional credit.

Opening an Account

Achiever Global Markets, trading as Achiever FX, offers three account tiers rather than a single sign-up path, and the entry point a new client lands on depends on how much money they are prepared to put down first. The firm’s own account page lists a Standard account requiring a $250 minimum deposit, spreads “from 1.4 pips,” no commission, leverage up to 1:500 and swap-free trading on MT5; a VIP account at a $10,000 minimum, spreads “from 0.9 pips,” no commission, leverage up to 1:200 and swap-free trading marked with an asterisk; and an ECN Pro account at a $25,000 minimum, spreads “from 0.2 pips,” a $7-per-lot commission, leverage up to 1:100 and swaps applied. Trading itself runs on MetaTrader 5, available on Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and a browser-based Web Trader, according to the firm’s platforms page. The site’s navigation also lists an “Achiever App” and an “RTX5 App” as separate platform items, but we did not fetch a page describing either, so we cannot say what account type or verification either requires.

Who Achiever Global Markets says it will not take on

The root page states the firm provides no services to citizens or residents of the United States, Cuba, Iraq, Myanmar, North Korea, the UAE or Sudan. Separately, the terms and conditions state that the website is not directed at, and not intended for use by, residents of the United States or the United Arab Emirates, or anyone in a jurisdiction where such use would be contrary to local law. Both restrictions come from the firm’s own pages, not from a regulator; the register entry we found for the company confirms only that it exists as an International Business Company in Saint Lucia, not that it holds a licence to deal in forex or CFDs, or that it is licensed to serve any particular class of client.

The entity behind the brand is registered in Saint Lucia. The Saint Lucia Registry of International Business Companies’ free name search lists “Achiever Global Markets LTD. (IBC)” as an International Business Company, confirming the company exists, but that search publishes no registration number, incorporation date or status, since those sit behind a paid, account-only search. The number the firm quotes, 2023-00255, was not itself verified against that register, and an IBC registration is a company filing, not a licence to deal in forex or CFDs. A new client opening an account is therefore contracting with a company confirmed to be registered offshore, not with an entity confirmed to hold trading permission from any financial regulator we checked.

Funding an Achiever Global Markets account and getting money back out

The published fee page names two funding routes: debit/credit card and bank wire transfer. Card deposits are returned to the same card on withdrawal, and profit withdrawals, or card withdrawals made after the card issuer’s refund window has closed, go out by wire transfer instead. In practice this means a client cannot choose a different destination for a refund of their own deposit; the fee page states withdrawals are only executed “to the same source the Company received the deposits from.”

The same page sets out an inactivity charge that applies specifically around the withdrawal step: if a deposit was successfully made but no trading followed, or if a client withdraws after trading less than 5 standard lots since depositing, Achiever Global Markets charges the equivalent of any banking fees incurred, or 3% of the total withdrawal amount. A client who deposits, decides not to trade, and asks for the money back is charged for that decision under the same clause that covers simple inactivity.

The withdrawal procedure section of that fee page also gives the firm “the right in its absolute discretion” to request further information or documents before releasing a withdrawal, and states it may cancel or hold a withdrawal request “without prior notification” pending that further information. No list of documents is set out in the material we read, so we cannot say what a client will actually be asked to produce; what the page establishes is that the request, and any delay that comes with it, is entirely at the firm’s discretion rather than tied to a fixed checklist.

The terms a new client is agreeing to

Section 11 of the terms and conditions, headed Amendments, states that Achiever Global Markets LTD “reserves the right to revise and update these Terms and Conditions at any time at its sole discretion,” that changes “are effective immediately when published,” and that a client’s “continued use” of the site after that point “means that you accept and agree to the changes.” There is no separate notice step described; opening an account means accepting whatever version of the terms is live at the time, and continuing to use the account later means accepting whatever the firm has since changed them to.

Sections 8 and 9 of the same document set the governing law as Saint Lucia and route any dispute that survives negotiation to “the competent courts of Saint Lucia.” A client anywhere else in the world who opens an account is agreeing, from the outset, to pursue a claim only in that one offshore jurisdiction. Section 7 further caps the firm’s liability for “negligence, breach of contract or contravention of any law” at, by its own wording, resupplying the website or paying for that resupply, regardless of what the client actually lost. And the firm’s separate risk disclosure, at section 3, states that client funds “may” be passed to a third party and held in an omnibus account that “may not be possible to separate” from that third party’s own money, with no liability accepted by Achiever Global Markets for losses arising from that third party’s insolvency, a term that sits at odds with the “fully segregated accounts” claim made on the same site’s marketing page. None of this is a step in the sign-up flow itself, but it is what a client is bound by the moment the account is opened.

Deposits & Withdrawals

How money moves in: Achiever Global Markets’ deposit rails

The firm’s own account-types page lists three tiers by minimum deposit: Standard at $250, VIP at $10,000, and ECN Pro at $25,000, each running on MT5 with its own spread and commission structure. The fee page names two channels for moving money: debit/credit card and bank wire transfer. Card deposits are tied to the card used: the fee page states that deposits made by card are withdrawn back to the same card. Bank wire is used for processing profit withdrawals, and for card withdrawals where the card issuer’s time limit for accepting a refund has expired. There is no third channel listed in the pages we fetched, so a client funding by card is routed through that card for the return of principal, with wire transfer reserved for profit and for the cases where the card can no longer take a refund.

What Achiever Global Markets charges to withdraw

The fee page sets out a specific inactivity charge tied to withdrawals rather than to the account generally: it applies if there was a successful deposit but no trading activity, or if the client withdraws after trading less than 5 standard lots since that deposit. The amount charged is the equivalent of any banking fees incurred, or 3% of the total withdrawal amount, per the fee page. That 5-lot threshold is a specific, checkable trading requirement standing between a deposit and a withdrawal free of that charge, and it applies on top of whatever the client’s bank or card issuer charges for moving the money in the first place, since the fee page does not describe absorbing those banking costs itself.

Terms that put withdrawal timing in the firm’s hands

The Withdrawal Procedure section of the fee page gives the Company “the right in its absolute discretion” to request further information or documents before a withdrawal, and states it may, “without prior notification,” cancel or hold a withdrawal request pending that further information. Read together with the routing rule above, a client’s withdrawal request can be held open-endedly on a documentation request the firm is not obliged to flag in advance, and even once cleared, the funds go only “to the same source the Company received the deposits from” rather than to a destination of the client’s choosing. Card deposits go back to the card; profit can go out by wire. The fee page does state a cap of five Business Days to process the withdrawal request, but that clock runs only from the date the Company is satisfied with the request, not from the date of the request itself or the start of any hold for further information.

Where the deposited funds actually sit

The root marketing page states: “Your funds are held in fully segregated accounts, completely separate from company operational funds.” The firm’s own Risk Disclosure, section 3 (Third Party Risk), says something different: “Achiever Global Markets LTD may pass funds received from the Client to a third party,” that the third party “may hold it in an omnibus account and it may not be possible to separate it from the Client’s money, or the third party’s money,” and the firm disclaims liability for losses arising from that third party’s insolvency. Those two statements, both on the firm’s own site, do not describe the same arrangement, and it is the Risk Disclosure, not the marketing copy, that sets out what happens if the third party holding the money fails.

On the regulatory side of who is handling these funds, the Saint Lucia Registry of International Business Companies name search (via Pinnacle St. Lucia) lists “Achiever Global Markets LTD. (IBC)” as registered, but that free search does not publish a registration number, incorporation date or status, and an IBC registration is a company registration rather than a licence to deal in forex or CFDs. The 2023-00255 number quoted on the firm’s site was not verified against that register. We also searched 1,441 warning-list entries mirrored from CYSEC, the FCA and the FSC Mauritius, and Achiever Global Markets appears on none of them, though that check covers only those three lists, not every regulator that might have an interest.

Our previous score for this broker was 3.7/10; this review scores it 4.9/10. That change is this review’s own assessment against the current evidence, not a change at the firm: the withdrawal terms above (the 3%/banking-fee charge, the discretionary hold, the single-destination routing) feed the fees score of 6.2/10, while the unverifiable IBC registration and the gap between the marketing segregation claim and the Risk Disclosure’s own wording keep the regulation score at 1/10.

Customer Support

Achiever Global Markets publishes two contact channels: an email address, support@achieverfx.com, and a phone number, +1 758 572 5128, both given on the firm’s Contact page. The same page lists an office address, Suite 4, Mall Road, Rodney Bay, Gros Islet, Saint Lucia, and a client portal at portal.achieverfx.com for logging in to manage an account.

What Achiever Global Markets actually publishes for hours, against what it advertises

The Contact page states support hours of Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 18:00, with Saturday and Sunday both marked Closed. That published schedule sits alongside marketing on the root page that promises “24/7 Support” and “24/7 Live Support, Real humans, always on.” The two firsthand pages contradict each other: one is a fixed five day, ten hour window, the other claims round the clock coverage. A client who reaches out on a Saturday, or after 18:00 on a weekday, is contacting a channel the firm’s own Contact page says is closed, whatever the homepage banner claims.

Terms that shape what happens when a client complains or asks for money back

The firm’s own terms and conditions, section 7, Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability, cap what Achiever Global Markets owes a client who has a complaint about the website or service: liability is limited, at our option… to resupplying this website or any part of it to you, or to paying for the resupply of this website. That is the ceiling on any claim routed through support, regardless of the actual loss involved.

If a complaint or dispute is not resolved through that channel, sections 8 and 9 send it to negotiation first, then to “the competent courts of Saint Lucia.” A client anywhere else in the world who wants to escalate past customer support has to do so in an offshore court, not a venue local to them.

Section 11, Amendments, lets the firm change the terms a client agreed to at any time: Achiever Global Markets LTD reserves the right to revise and update these Terms and Conditions at any time at its sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when published… Your continued use… means that you accept and agree to the changes. A client does not get direct notice of a change to the terms governing their account; continuing to use the site is treated as acceptance.

The fee page’s Withdrawal Procedure clause also bears directly on complaints about slow or refused withdrawals: the firm has “the right in its absolute discretion” to request more information before paying out, and may cancel or hold a withdrawal request “without prior notification” while it does. Separately, withdrawals are only paid “to the same source the Company received the deposits from,” so a client cannot redirect a payout to a different account and raise that as a service issue; the fee page treats it as the fixed procedure. Card deposits return to the same card, and profit may instead be paid by bank wire.

Why the score on support moved

Our previous review of Achiever Global Markets scored 3.7 out of 10 overall; this review scores 4.9 out of 10, with support scored separately at 5.8. That is a restated score built from the evidence gathered this time, not a claim that the firm’s support has changed, and the underlying material cuts both ways. In its favour, the firm publishes a named email, a phone number, a street address and a client portal, which is more than a bare contact form. Against it, the published hours are a fraction of what the site’s own marketing promises, and every contractual lever that governs what support can actually do for an aggrieved client, the liability cap, the Saint Lucia forum, the discretion to hold or cancel a withdrawal without notice, and the right to change the terms with no direct notice, sits on the firm’s side of the table.

Prohibited Countries

Achiever Global Markets LTD, trading as “Achiever FX” through achieverfx.com and registered in Saint Lucia, publishes two separate lists of who it will not deal with, and the two lists do not match each other.

The exclusions on Achiever Global Markets’ root page

The firm’s homepage states that no services are provided to citizens or residents of seven countries: the United States, Cuba, Iraq, Myanmar, North Korea, the United Arab Emirates and Sudan. That is the fuller list in our evidence, and it groups five countries under long-standing international sanctions regimes (Cuba, Iraq, Myanmar, North Korea, Sudan) alongside the United States and the UAE.

What Achiever Global Markets’ terms and conditions add

The firm’s terms and conditions, a separate document from the homepage, state that the website is not directed to, or intended for use by, any person in any jurisdiction where the use of the website… would be contrary to applicable law, and separately says the site is not directed at or for use by residents of the United States or the United Arab Emirates. Read on its own, the terms and conditions name only two countries outright, the US and the UAE, and rely on a general catch-all clause covering any jurisdiction where use would be contrary to local law for everywhere else. That catch-all does not name Cuba, Iraq, Myanmar, North Korea or Sudan, even though the homepage lists all five by name as places where the firm says it provides no services at all. A reader relying only on the terms and conditions, rather than the homepage, would not see those five countries named anywhere.

No stated exception process

Neither the homepage restriction nor the terms and conditions clause describes any process for a resident of an excluded country to seek an exception, nor do they explain how the firm verifies a client’s country of residence before or after opening an account. The fee page’s withdrawal procedure does give the firm “the right in its absolute discretion” to request further information or documents before releasing a withdrawal, and to cancel or hold a withdrawal request “without prior notification” pending that information, but nothing in our evidence ties that discretionary check specifically to verifying country eligibility.

Where this sits against the Saint Lucia registration

The Saint Lucia Registry of International Business Companies name search confirms “Achiever Global Markets LTD. (IBC)” as an International Business Company, which is a company registration rather than a licence to deal in forex or CFDs, and the free search does not publish a registration number, incorporation date or status. The quoted registration number 2023-00255 was not independently verified through that search. Nothing in the register record or in our evidence sets out a licensed territory or a regulator-approved client base for the firm; the only stated limits on who can be served are the homepage’s seven-country list and the terms and conditions’ narrower two-country list with its general catch-all.

Conclusion

Achiever Global Markets scores 4.9 out of 10 in this review, up from the 3.7 we gave it previously. The move is ours, not the firm’s: this review rests on a fresh read of the firm’s own terms and fee page, plus a register search and a warning list check that the previous score did not draw on, and those checks land closer to the middle of the scale than the bottom. That is not the same as a clean bill of health, and the regulation score of 1 out of 10 says why.

Why the regulation score is a 1

The Saint Lucia Registry of International Business Companies name search shows “Achiever Global Markets LTD. (IBC)” listed as an International Business Company. That is a company registration, not a licence to deal in forex or CFDs, and the free search does not publish a registration number, incorporation date or status behind that listing. The number the firm quotes, 2023-00255, was not verified against the register. No licence from any financial regulator appears anywhere in the evidence we read. A Google review reproduced on the firm’s own root page calls Achiever Global Markets “a licensed & regulated broker.” We searched 1,441 warning list entries mirrored from CYSEC, the FCA and the FSC Mauritius, and this firm matched none of them, which rules out an active fraud alert on those three lists without adding any regulatory standing of its own.

What Achiever Global Markets charges and offers

The account page sets out three tiers: Standard at a $250 minimum with spreads from 1.4 pips and no commission, VIP at $10,000 with spreads from 0.9 pips, and ECN Pro at $25,000 with spreads from 0.2 pips plus a $7 per lot commission. All three run on MT5, and all three carry leverage up to 1:500, 1:200 or 1:100 depending on tier. The fee page also sets an inactivity charge: any banking fees incurred, or 3% of the total withdrawal, applied if a client deposited but never traded, or withdraws after trading less than 5 standard lots since depositing.

Terms that bind a client here

The firm’s terms and conditions cap its own liability at, in its words, “resupplying this website or any part of it to you, or to paying for the resupply of this website,” under section 7. Section 8 and 9 set Saint Lucia as governing law and route unresolved disputes to “the competent courts of Saint Lucia,” an offshore forum for a client based elsewhere. Section 11 lets the firm revise the terms “at any time at its sole discretion,” with continued use of the site counted as acceptance. On withdrawals, the fee page gives the firm “the right in its absolute discretion” to request further documents and to cancel or hold a withdrawal “without prior notification,” and funds can only be returned “to the same source the Company received the deposits from,” so a client cannot redirect a payout to a different account.

The clearest problem in our evidence is a direct contradiction inside the firm’s own material. The root page advertises funds “held in fully segregated accounts, completely separate from company operational funds,” while the Risk Disclosure, section 3, states that client funds may be passed to a third party and held in an omnibus account that may not be possible to separate… from the third party’s money, with no liability accepted by the firm if that third party becomes insolvent. The same Risk Disclosure warns a client “could sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and be required to deposit additional funds,” with nothing in the pages we read describing negative balance protection. The root page’s claim of “24/7 Support” and “24/7 Live Support” also sits against the Contact page’s published hours of Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 18:00, with Saturday and Sunday marked closed.

Achiever Global Markets holds a Saint Lucia company registration rather than any financial services licence, its own risk disclosure describes client funds as potentially pooled with a third party’s rather than segregated, and its marketing claims on funds and support hours conflict with its own published pages; it scores 4.9 out of 10.
