LiteFinance in short
LiteFinance publishes three companies and this site had one. The group does hold a live CySEC licence — and it will not say who that company serves, while the St Vincent company that takes almost everybody holds no licence at all, because St Vincent issues none for this business.
What is good
- Holds a tier-1 licence that takes retail clients (CySEC)
- A statutory compensation scheme in at least one jurisdiction — ICF up to €20,000
- You can open an account with $50
- Funds and withdraws in crypto as well as by bank and card
- Copy trading is built in rather than bolted on by a third party
What it costs you
- Outside the countries the licensed entities name you sign with LiteFinance Global LLC in St Vincent & the Grenadines — no compensation scheme
- The group includes a company with no financial licence anywhere (St Vincent & the Grenadines)
- The most expensive here, at 1.30 pips all in
- Offers leverage up to 1:1000, which no tier-1 regulator allows a retail client
- Does not publish which company serves which country
- Publishes no audited group accounts
- Does not state that client funds are held separately from its own
Both lists are generated from the record on this page and from how it compares with the other nine brokers here. Nothing on either side was written to be flattering, and a correction to the data rewrites them the same day.

What we checked on LiteFinance
16 Sept 2026LiteFinance publishes three companies and this site had one. The group does hold a live CySEC licence — and it will not say who that company serves, while the St Vincent company that takes almost everybody holds no licence at all, because St Vincent issues none for this business.
Three companies, and the group will not say who gets which
LiteFinance’s own company page names three: LiteFinance Global LLC in St Vincent, registration 931 LLC 2021, with no regulator named; Liteforex (Europe) Ltd in Cyprus, HE230122, a Cyprus Investment Firm under CySEC licence 093/08; and LiteFinance Investment Limited in Mauritius, 178302, an investment dealer under FSC licence GB20025921 4. This record had the first one.
The CySEC licence is live — we read Liteforex (Europe) Ltd off the register ourselves 1. What the group does not say anywhere is which clients that company takes. The only routing statement on the page is a negative one: "LiteFinance Global LLC does not provide services to residents of the EEA countries, USA, Israel, Russia, and some other countries" 4.
Somebody must serve EEA residents if the St Vincent company does not, and the obvious candidate is the Cyprus firm. Obvious is not established, and this page does not route anyone to a licence on an inference. Both extra companies are on the entity map with no country against them, and neither scores — which is why the regulation component here is zero despite a real CySEC licence sitting in the group.
St Vincent issues no licence for this at all
The company that takes almost every client is registered in St Vincent and the Grenadines, and the number in its disclosure is a company registration.
The St Vincent Financial Services Authority and Financial Intelligence Unit say so jointly in their own advisory: "there is no regulation in place for Foreign Exchange (Forex) Trading and Cryptocurrency offerings in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Furthermore, no Forex Trading or Cryptocurrency licenses are issued in St. Vincent and the Grenadines" 2.
That correction was applied across this whole directory and it costs LiteFinance more than anyone, because unlike the others it had nothing else on its map. A jurisdiction that issues no licence cannot be scored as a weak regulator; it has to be scored as none.
The brand history, briefly
LiteForex became LiteFinance in November 2021, and from 8 November that year accounts were serviced by LiteFinance Global LLC in St Vincent 3. The Cyprus company kept the old name, which is why a CySEC search for "LiteFinance" returns nothing and a search for "Liteforex" returns a live licence.
That is worth knowing if you are trying to check this broker yourself: the name on the website and the name on the register are different words, and the register is the one that matters.
What we searched and did not find
No enforcement action against LiteFinance, LiteForex or their companies turned up in the registers and outlets we checked. The conduct component scores ten on that basis.
Read it against the rest of the page. Ten for conduct means no authority has acted; zero for regulation means there is no authority in a position to. Those two numbers together are the whole picture, and either alone is misleading.
The same caution applies to everything else on this record. The spread, the minimum, the withdrawal time and the platform list are the broker’s published figures, read by a person, and there is no supervisor anywhere who has to check that they are true. With a CySEC or an FCA firm, a published figure that turns out to be wrong is a compliance matter; here it is a marketing decision. That does not make the numbers false and it does change what they are worth.
And the copy trading, which is the reason most people arrive at this broker, is a feature rather than a protection. Following a profitable stranger does not change which company holds your money or who you complain to if it stops answering.
The figures, and where each one came from
- Companies on the broker’s own page4
- Three, in St Vincent, Cyprus and Mauritius
- What this site had4
- One — the St Vincent company
- Cyprus licence1
- Liteforex (Europe) Ltd, CySEC 093/08, active
- Who the Cyprus company serves4
- Not stated anywhere by the group
- St Vincent entity2
- 931 LLC 2021 — a company number, not a licence
- St Vincent FSA on forex licences2
- “No Forex Trading … licenses are issued”
- Rebrand from LiteForex3
- November 2021; accounts moved to the St Vincent company
Still open
- Which company an EEA resident is actually onboarded to is the central open question here, and only the broker can answer it. Until it does, the CySEC licence scores nothing on this page.
- The Mauritius company’s role is undisclosed too. Mauritius is on the list of registers this site cannot read, so its licence has not been confirmed either.

How we scoreWhat LiteFinance is
LiteFinance has been trading since 2005, which is 21 years, and runs from St Vincent & the Grenadines. It holds 3 licensed entities across FSA-SVG, CySEC and FSC-MU — which is not the same thing as being one company.
On this site it ranks 10th of 10 brokers. That puts it in the lower third of what we cover, on published weights rather than on an opinion. The weights are on the methodology page and nothing paid for the position.
Who regulates LiteFinance
LiteFinance Global LLC, incorporated in St Vincent & the Grenadines, holds FSA-SVG licence 931 LLC 2021 (unregulated) and takes everyone else. Liteforex (Europe) Ltd, incorporated in Cyprus, holds CySEC licence 093/08 (authorised) and names no country it onboards. LiteFinance Investment Limited, incorporated in Mauritius, holds FSC-MU licence GB20025921 (registered) and names no country it onboards.
One of those is a tier-A regulator — a public register you can search and a statutory compensation scheme behind it: CySEC’s ICF up to €20,000.
There is no country-by-country entity here. Everyone signs with LiteFinance Global LLC, regulated by FSA-SVG, which is not a tier-A regulator, wherever they live — so the protection a reader in London gets is the protection a reader anywhere else gets.
What trading LiteFinance costs
LiteFinance publishes a typical EUR/USD spread of 1.3 pips and charges no commission, so the spread is the whole of the cost. All in, a round turn costs about 1.30 pips.
The median across the 10 brokers ranked here is 0.90 pips, so this is the 10th-cheapest of them and above the median. A published spread is a typical spread: it widens on news and around the session close, and no broker publishes that number.
There is no swap-free account, so positions held overnight are charged swap.
Deposits and withdrawals
You can fund an account by debit and credit card, crypto and e-wallets. The stated minimum is $50, which is lower than 2 of the other 9 brokers here.
LiteFinance states that withdrawals are processed in about 24 hours. That is the broker's own figure and this site has not measured it. Processing time is also not arrival time: the payment rail adds its own, and a card refund is slower than the broker's end of it.
Platforms and execution
LiteFinance offers MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, a web terminal and a mobile app, and has copy trading built in.
Orders are filled on market execution. Leverage goes to 1:1,000, which is higher than any tier-A regulator permits a retail client — it is available through the offshore entity, not through the licensed European or Australian one.
What LiteFinance says about itself
LiteFinance publishes none of the four things this site checks for: its entity mapping, audited accounts, a segregation statement, or its ownership.
It does not publish which entity serves which country, audited accounts, any statement that client money is segregated and who owns it. That is not evidence of anything on its own — plenty of sound companies are private — and it is the difference between a claim you can check and one you have to take on trust.
Where LiteFinance is strong, and where it is not
Its best component is regulatory & legal record, at 10.0 out of 10. Its weakest is regulation & licensing, at 0.0. Those two are what the score is mostly made of, and a reader for whom regulation & licensing is the deciding factor should read that row of the breakdown rather than the total.
The short version: a tier-A licence, at a cost above the median for this list.
What this review has not checked
No editor has verified the costs and the funding terms on this record against LiteFinance's own pages. Everything above is read from what the company publishes, and this site says so rather than implying otherwise.
This page is generated from the record above it, so it cannot drift from it: correct a field and the paragraph changes with it. What it will never contain is an opinion about a support team, a platform's feel, or how a withdrawal went — those need people, and when this site has enough verified reviews to say something about them it will say it in the reviews section, with the count attached.
Written from the record on this page, not about it. Every sentence above is a reading of a field you can see here, so a correction to the data corrects the text the same day.
What customers say
0 publishedNobody has written about this one yet. The reviews component of the score is excluded until 5 reviews have been checked by an editor — excluded, not scored zero, because no reviews is not the same as bad reviews.
