What does Prime FX Holdings charge to trade forex?

Forex is priced in the spread, from 0.2 pips on majors, with no separate commission on spot FX. Spot trading in other asset classes starts at 0.10% per side and perpetual futures are 0.02% maker / 0.05% taker.

Are there deposit or withdrawal fees?

Bank transfers over SEPA, Faster Payments and ACH are free. Card deposits cost 1.5% and SWIFT withdrawals are a flat $18. There is no inactivity fee and no charge to hold an account.

How are overnight swap charges calculated?

Leveraged positions held past 21:00 UTC are financed at the relevant benchmark rate plus or minus an admin mark-up of 0.0082% per day (roughly 3% per year). Perpetual futures instead settle an eight-hourly funding payment between longs and shorts.

How our costs compare

Two costs decide what most active traders actually pay: the spread on the pairs they trade and the overnight financing on positions they hold. A 1-lot EUR/USD round trip at 0.2 pips costs about $2 in spread; holding that position for a week adds roughly $9 in financing at current benchmark rates. Card deposits are the only funding route we charge a percentage on — bank transfer is free in every supported currency.
