How to confirm you're on the real IC Markets

  1. Check the exact domain in your browser's address bar. Scam sites use near-identical names (extra letter, swapped TLD, different hyphenation) — compare it character by character against the broker's official URL.
  2. Confirm the HTTPS lock is valid. A legitimate broker never serves a login page over plain HTTP, and any certificate warning is a hard stop.
  3. Never follow a login link from an unsolicited email, ad, or chat message. If you're already a IC Markets client, type the URL you know by hand or use the broker's mobile app.
  4. Verify the regulator licence number on the broker's own regulator-of-record website rather than trusting a logo on the broker site itself. Imposter sites often copy real regulator logos.

Common questions

How many fake IC Markets sites exist?

Third-party monitors have identified 2 look-alike brands copying IC Markets's brand as of October 2026. The list changes over time — new copycats appear and old ones are taken down — so always verify the URL against the broker's official domain before depositing.

How do I know I'm on the real IC Markets site?

Check the domain in your browser's address bar against IC Markets's official site, confirm there's a valid HTTPS lock, and never follow a login link from an unsolicited email or ad. The "Visit IC Markets" link on this page is BrokerAnalysis's tracked partner link to IC Markets's sign-up; verify the address bar either way.

What should I do if I've already deposited with a fake IC Markets?

Stop any further deposits immediately. Document everything (screenshots of the site, transaction IDs, chat logs), contact your card issuer or bank for a chargeback within their window, and report the site to your country's financial regulator. If the imposter copied a regulated broker, the real broker's compliance team may also help.
