Editorial summary

Tickmill lists FCA-, CySEC-, FSA-Seychelles- and FSCA-regulated group entities; its Dubai DFSA registration is a representative office, not a trading licence. It offers over 600 CFDs and over 60 currency pairs across MT4, MT5, TradingView, Tickmill Trader, WebTrader and the mobile app.

The contracting company, client protections, leverage and product range depend on the client's country of residence. The Dubai office (DFSA reference F007663) is a representative office rather than a trading entity.
