Referral terms vary by region and account state.

HTX does not publish a single headline fee, so this page collects the terms it does publish and links every claim to its source (last checked July 31, 2026). HTX accepts sign-ups from South Africa at the time of our last check. Verification rules are summarised below straight from the official help pages, so you know what the platform asks for before you commit an email address. Reserve transparency is part of the score here: the table notes what the platform publishes about its holdings. The service has operated since 2013, which we treat as track record, not as an endorsement. South African users usually have full access to global venues, with ZAR funding via local card or EFT rails where supported.
