reduce the risk of misdirected payments or fraud.
This helps to protect both you as the customer and TabTrade as the broker.
How do I add my credit card details?
Card details are captured securely when you make your first deposit by card through the Secure Account Portal .client portal. We do not store full card numbers but use secure tokenisation. You can choose to save your card details within the Secure Account Portal.
Why was my card deposit declined?

insufficient funds or a bank block;
incorrect card details or expiry date;
bank restrictions on international or trading-related transactions;
security checks or mismatches in name/address.
If a deposit fails, you should check with your bank and then contact support with any error messages so we can help identify and solve the issue quickly for you.
Best Practices for Future Transactions
Verify Payment Details: Double-check all payment details before initiating a deposit to avoid errors.
Monitor Your Account: Keep track of your account balance and transaction history to identify any discrepancies early.
Use Secure Methods: Opt for secure and reliable payment methods to minimize the risk of transaction failures. If the failed transaction amount has not been returned to your account, wait until the funds are refunded before attempting a new deposit. Once the issue is resolved and the refund is received, you can proceed with a new deposit. Ensure that you use the correct details and a reliable payment method.
How do I know if my payment went through?
You can confirm a successful payment by:
checking the “transactions” section in your Secure Account Portal ;
checking whether your account balance has updated;
reviewing any confirmation emails or notifications.
If the funds have left your bank but haven’t appeared after the normal processing time, contact support with your transaction reference so we can followup quickly for you. You can also track the status of your withdrawal in the Secure Account Portal under the "Withdrawals History" section. The status will indicate whether the withdrawal is pending or processed.
How do I withdraw funds?
To withdraw fund from TabTrade, you need to:
Log into your Secure Account Portal.
Go to the withdrawals section.
Choose your preferred method.
Enter the amount and submit your request. If you encounter issues with withdrawals not being processed or remaining pending, refer to the troubleshooting section below for common reasons and resolutions.
How do I withdraw funds from my MT5 account?
Withdrawals can be requested from within the Secure Account Portal rather than inside MT5. The process is typically:
Visit your Secure Account Portal
View your current balance that is available for transfer on the account.
Transfer it back to your wallet.
Withdraw to your external account.
Please note that you can withdraw 90% of your free margin from the account. This means you don't strictly need to close any positions if you have enough free margin. You can't withdraw all of the free margin because we need to maintain a buffer to prevent you going straight into a margin call. This is an important risk management step. If you have insufficient free margin, close open trades to free up margin before resubmitting the withdrawal request.
Common Reasons for Pending Withdrawals
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Not Enabled
If MFA is not enabled on your account, withdrawals may remain pending until you confirm them via an email sent to your registered address.
Resolution: Open the confirmation email and follow the instructions to approve the withdrawal. Once confirmed, the request will proceed according to the payout method’s timeline.
Troubleshooting Withdrawal Failures
Insufficient Free Margin
A withdrawal cannot be processed if there is no free margin available in your account. Free margin is the amount of funds available for withdrawal after accounting for open trades.
Resolution: Close open trades to free up margin, then resubmit the withdrawal request.
Additional Tips
Always ensure your account settings are up-to-date and compliant with TabTrade’s withdrawal requirements.
Check your email inbox (and spam folder) for any confirmation emails related to pending withdrawals.
Review your account balance and free margin before initiating a withdrawal to avoid delays.
By following these steps, you can address most common withdrawal issues and ensure a smoother transaction process.
What is your card withdrawal policy?
Withdrawals must be sent back to the same card used for deposits up to the original deposit amount, with any profits sent by alternative methods. If you have any questions, please contact support and we will assist you right away.
What is the processing time frame for each withdrawal method?
Withdrawal times vary depending on the payout method and region. Below are the typical timelines:

Cards (Visa/Mastercard), Google Pay/Apple Pay: 1–3 business days

To view the full list of withdrawal times for each method, please refer to the Deposits and Withdrawals page on our website.
Factors Affecting Processing Times
Several factors can influence the time it takes for withdrawals to be processed:

Region: Regional banking systems and regulations may impact processing times.
Network Conditions: For cryptocurrency transactions, network congestion can cause delays.
Important Notes:
The timelines mentioned above refer to business days (Monday to Friday). Weekends are not included in the processing time for bank transfers.
Withdrawals to cards are processed as refunds up to the deposited amount. Any profit exceeding the original deposit is paid out via an alternative method.
Can I deposit/withdraw different currencies to/from a trading account?
With TabTrade’s wallet system you can hold multiple currencies and choose when to convert between them, so you can take advantage of favourable exchange rates rather than being forced to convert every time you move money.
You can mix and match:
the currency you deposit in
the currency of your wallet
the base currency of your trading accounts
Whenever a conversion is needed, we’ll show you:
the live exchange rate being used
the exact amount you’ll receive after conversion
You can then confirm or cancel the conversion before anything is processed. We don’t need to show the exact spread we add, but the final amount you see is what will be credited.
Your balances are always displayed in the currency of that wallet or trading account, so it’s clear what you hold in each currency at any time.
What are “funds in transit” and how might they affect my account equity?
“Funds in transit” refers to deposits or withdrawals that have been initiated but not fully processed or cleared.
During this period:
deposits may not yet be available as usable margin;
withdrawals may still show as part of your balance until processed, or as pending reductions.
Managing your positions with an awareness of funds in transit helps avoid unintended margin calls.
We will show you a change in balance when you process a withdrawal so you are aware of what is actually available to trade with. There may be a slight delay in requesting the withdrawal and receiving the money as we have various processing times. Please refer to the Deposits and Withdrawals page on our website to view processing times.
