Tickmill is a forex & CFD broker based in United Kingdom, established in 2015. On Trust Broker Hub it holds a Trust Score of 8.4 out of 10, which we rate as Good — above the 5.3/10 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. Solid, well-regulated profile suitable for most traders.

Crucially, Tickmill is regulated by FCA, including at least one tier-1 regulator. Tier-1 regulation is the strongest sign of legitimacy: it normally requires segregated client funds, regular audits and access to a compensation scheme if the broker fails — meaningful protection for your money.

Tickmill provides access to Educational services, order tracking, trading tools, customer service. Its detailed trading conditions — minimum deposit, spreads and maximum leverage — are not publicly disclosed, which lowers transparency. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, Tickmill looks like a credible option — but always verify the licence yourself and start with a small amount.

Frequently asked

Is Tickmill a safe broker?

Tickmill scores 8.4 / 10 on our Trust Score, above the 5.3 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. It holds tier-1 regulation, which offers strong investor protection. It has no complaints on record with us. Trade only with funds you can afford to lose.

How is the Tickmill trust score calculated?

The score weighs five factors: regulation tier, transparency of disclosures, operating footprint, user sentiment, and complaint history. Each is scored out of 10 and combined into the overall figure shown at the top. Read our methodology.

What does "offshore regulated" mean?

It means the broker's licence comes from a jurisdiction with lighter requirements than tier-1 regulators like the FCA or ASIC. There's usually no compensation scheme, so recovering funds can be difficult if the broker fails.

Can I withdraw funds easily from Tickmill?

Tickmill doesn't publish detailed withdrawal terms, so we can't verify processing times or fees. Test with a small amount first and document every transaction.
