How to open a VT Markets account involves more than submitting a registration form. A Client Portal profile is not yet a usable MT4/MT5 trading account, and each client has one profile. If you want a particular introducing broker (IB) arrangement, choose the link before registering.
This guide covers web and app registration, VT Markets account verification, and opening a live trading account. In this article, Backcom.io compares three referral tiers by gold spread threshold and rebate, then walks through the steps in order.
How To Open A VT Markets Account: What To Prepare
How to open a VT Markets account starts with checking eligibility and gathering documents. Have these ready before opening a registration form:
| What you need | Check before you start |
|---|---|
| Email and phone number | Neither should be tied to an existing VT Markets profile. |
| Country of residence | Check the accepted and restricted countries; the cited regional page excludes residents of the US, Singapore, India and Russia. |
| Identity document | A valid government-issued ID card, passport or driving licence, photographed clearly in colour. |
| Proof of address | A bill or statement showing your address, issued within six months. |
| Password | 8–16 characters, including uppercase and lowercase letters, a number and a special character. |
| Referral link and code | Choose the STP, MVP or EXP tier before opening the form. |
| Bank account in your name | Do not fund the account from someone else’s bank account. |
Choose a link and code → Register on web or app → Verify email and phone → Submit identity and address documents → Receive MT4/MT5 credentials → Deposit and notify support
Which VT Markets Entity Handles International Clients?
VT Markets’ legal page for the cited region identified VT Markets Limited, licensed by the Financial Services Commission of Mauritius under GB23202269, as the product provider on 16 October 2026. VT Markets (Pty) Ltd, South African FSP 50865, acts as an intermediary. The entity serving you can depend on your location. Check the entity named in your own client agreement before depositing.
VT Markets Referral Code: Choosing STP, MVP Or EXP
A VT Markets referral code accompanies a registration link or goes in the optional Referrer ID field, associating your profile with an IB.
| Link tier | Referral code | Gold spread threshold | Gold and oil rebate |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP | 5rOZp2V6 | 22+ | USD 8.8/lot |
| MVP | a3FO5Sqx | 27+ | USD 10.8/lot |
| EXP | 0kpZyuRX | 32+ | USD 12.8/lot |
These are standard-lot rebates shown on the VT Markets rebate page as at 16 October 2026. Rates depend on the product and may change.
Net cost per lot = Spread cost + Commission − Rebate per lot
The prominently displayed code, 0kpZyuRX, belongs to EXP, which has the highest gold spread threshold in the table. A larger rebate alone does not establish a lower net cost: actual spread, instrument and volume matter. See how forex spreads work.
VT Markets’ PRO ECN page says IBs and clients under an IB cannot upgrade to PRO ECN. Compare product-by-product rates on the VT Markets rebate page before choosing a tier.
Backcom.io is an introducing broker of VT Markets and pays trader rebates from commission the broker pays it. See the risk disclaimer.
Ask support these two questions before funding:
- Do trades on Cent STP or Cent ECN accounts qualify for rebates?
- Does accepting a deposit promotion affect rebate eligibility?
Already Have A VT Markets Account Or Missed The Code?
Do not register again with another email. Duplicate identities can be rejected. The “Existing account” tab on the rebate page describes an IB transfer through Client Portal → Profile → IB/CPA/Account Manager Transfer. Select IB and enter the relevant new IB number: STP 26627834, MVP 26627843 or EXP 26627844.
Close all open positions, confirm that every trading account should move, and submit only one request at a time. After approval or rejection, wait 72 hours before submitting another request. VT Markets reviews each application individually.
How To Open A VT Markets Account On The Web: 7 Steps
How to open a VT Markets account on the web follows seven steps based on the VT Markets Help Centre guidance checked on 16 October 2026.
- Open your chosen tier’s link: Use a private browser tab and open STP (code 5rOZp2V6), MVP (code a3FO5Sqx) or EXP (code 0kpZyuRX).
- Select your country of residence: Use your actual country. Eligibility and account terms vary by region.
- Enter your email and password: Use an email not linked to another VT Markets profile. Your 8–16-character password needs uppercase and lowercase letters, a number and a special character; it is separate from your MT4/MT5 password.
- Check the Referrer ID field: Confirm that it contains the code matching your chosen link: 5rOZp2V6, a3FO5Sqx or 0kpZyuRX.
- Confirm residency eligibility: Tick the declaration that you are not a US resident, then select “Open a Live Account”.
- Verify email and phone: Enter the codes or follow the link VT Markets sends. If the email is missing, request it again under Profile → Security Management → Email address.
- Complete personal details: Enter your name, date of birth and phone number exactly as they appear on your verification documents.
You now have a Client Portal profile. VT Markets emails your MT4/MT5 credentials after document approval.
Common VT Markets Registration Problems And Fixes
- No email: Check Spam, Promotions and the address entered; contact 24/7 Live Chat if it still does not arrive.
- No SMS code: Check your country code and number format, then ask Live Chat. This number-format tip has not been verified specifically with VT Markets.
- Duplicate profile rejection: Sign in to the existing profile or ask support for help; another email will not fix a duplicate identity.
- Registration link will not open: Use the contact page to request the link again or get help with the next step.
VT Markets App Registration And Entering A Referral Code
VT Markets app registration begins with the correct listing. As at 16 October 2026, the iPhone app was “VT Markets-Online Trading” and the Android app was “VT Markets – Trading App”, both from VT TECHNOLOGY LIMITED. The iPhone version required iOS 13.0 or later, and Google Play showed over 1 million downloads.
Download from the App Store or Google Play. The six steps reflect VT Markets’ app FAQ:
- Check the listing: Match both app name and developer before installing.
- Choose a sign-up method: Use an email or phone number not already attached to a profile.
- Select your country: Enter your real country of residence.
- Enter the code if a field appears: Use 5rOZp2V6 for STP, a3FO5Sqx for MVP or 0kpZyuRX for EXP. If there is no referral field, register through the chosen web link in your phone browser, then sign in to the app.
- Enter the one-time code: Confirm the email or phone number used to register.
- Finish your profile: Provide personal details and verification documents before using the live account fully.
Your web profile also works in the app. Do not install APK files sent in messages; use an official app store or the broker’s website.
VT Markets Account Verification (KYC): Documents And Approval Time
VT Markets account verification means uploading proof of identity (POI) and proof of address (POA) to the Client Portal. VT Markets’ Help Centre said on 16 October 2026 that submitted documents are typically reviewed within three business hours. Go to Account → Account Verification, upload the files and select Submit.
Which Documents Does VT Markets KYC Require?
- Proof of identity: A valid government-issued ID card, passport or driving licence in a clear colour image. Your name, portrait and dates must be legible.
- Proof of address: A bill, bank statement, tax document or tenancy agreement with your name and address, issued within six months; a document from the last three months is preferable.
- Unacceptable documents: Handwritten files or blurry, cropped or black-and-white images may be rejected.
- Extra checks: VT Markets may ask for a selfie, video or source-of-funds evidence in some cases.
Approval Times And Limits Before VT Markets Account Verification
The Help Centre describes approval as taking from a few minutes to around three business hours, and up to one business day in some cases.
- After approval: Look for the email containing MT4/MT5 credentials, including in Spam.
- While approval is pending: You cannot trade or withdraw. Broker pages disagree on whether you can deposit before verification, so wait for approval before funding.
- If the app says “your account can not trade”: Check whether KYC is still incomplete.
VT Markets Account Types: Opening Standard STP, Raw ECN Or Cent On MT4/MT5
Opening a trading account means creating an MT4 or MT5 account inside your Client Portal profile. The Help Centre allows up to 20 live accounts per client.
- On the web: Go to Account → Open Account, then choose platform, account type and base currency.
- In the app: Tap the account number and select New Live Account.
VT Markets Account Types And Minimum Deposits
| Account type | Minimum deposit | Commission | Platform |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard STP | USD 100 | 0 | MT4, MT5 |
| Raw ECN | USD 100 | USD 6/lot | MT4, MT5 |
| Cent STP / Cent ECN | USD 50 (5,000 USC) | 0 / USD 6/lot | MT5 only |
| PRO ECN | Cannot be opened directly | USD 2–4/lot round trip | MT5 only; IB clients ineligible |
As at 16 October 2026, the VT Markets account table for the cited region listed USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, CAD and HKD as base currencies, with USC for Cent. Confirm the actual minimum deposit in your Client Portal.
Raw ECN lists spreads from 0.0 pip and commission of USD 6/lot. Check whether the figure is charged per side or round trip in your Portal. Compare MT4 and MT5 before choosing a platform.
Account type, base currency and server cannot be changed, according to the Help Centre. Standard STP and Raw ECN advertise leverage up to 500:1, depending on product and region. Review how forex leverage works before selecting it.
Making Your First Deposit From An Account In Your Name
After verification, go to Funds → Deposit funds and choose the receiving account, payment method and amount. VT Markets generally charges no deposit processing fee, though a payment provider may charge separately. Fast methods take roughly 30–60 minutes; international transfers take around 3–7 business days.
Fund only from an account in your name, then give support your registered email so it can check rebate tracking. Trading rules and tax treatment vary by country of residence. Check the rules where you live and consult a local tax professional before depositing or receiving a payout.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Opening A VT Markets Account
Is There A Fee To Register A VT Markets Account?
There is no account opening fee, according to the App Store and VT Markets FAQ. Trading can still incur spreads, commission and bank charges. Raw ECN lists USD 6/lot commission; check whether that applies per side or round trip. Review your account’s cost schedule and deposit method in the Client Portal before sending money.
Can I Open A VT Markets Demo Account?
Yes, the demo is free. The app lists 100,000 in virtual credit for testing orders. A demo does not replace KYC for a live account. Test the platform and leverage before using real money: an order-entry mistake on a live account can still cost you money.
How Many VT Markets Accounts Can One Person Open?
One person has one Client Portal profile linked to an email, but can open up to 20 live trading accounts within it. A duplicate identity can be rejected even with a different email. If you need another account type or base currency, open an additional trading account from the existing profile.
Can A VT Markets Referral Code Lead To PRO ECN?
No. VT Markets’ PRO ECN terms checked on 16 October 2026 exclude clients under an IB. PRO ECN is MT5-only and assesses any 30 consecutive days within 90 days: at least five closed trades totalling USD 500,000, or a balance above USD 10,000 and one closed trade. Consider that restriction before attaching a code.
Is VT Markets A Scam?
Registration steps alone cannot establish a broker’s reliability. Check the entity in your client agreement, verify the licence against its legal page, use the intended registration link and download the app from official stores. These checks help identify the service you are using, but they do not remove trading risk.
Conclusion: Choose Your Link, Verify, Then Deposit
How to open a VT Markets account follows a sequence: choose a link, create and verify a profile, then receive a trading account. Prepare your email and documents; use the web route or the app when it provides a referral field. After approval, open the MT4/MT5 account that suits your needs and fund it from an account in your name.
