gainful-markets.com has been flagged by AMF (France) for "Unauthorised". Category: Forex This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm. Website domain: gainful-markets.com.
I gave gainful-markets.com a fair chance. After for close to eighteen months of usage, I can say with confidence that there are far better options available. The interface is clunky, the fees are higher than competitors, and the customer support team seems overwhelmed or understaffed.
Pros: Fast deposits|Fast execution
Cons: Limited social trading features
KYC with gainful-markets.com is a nightmare. I submitted my ID and proof of address. They rejected it and asked for a utility bill. I sent it. They asked for a bank statement. Then they asked for a selfie with the ID. Then they said the selfie did not match. I gave up.
Pros: Automated trading options|Smooth onboarding|Quick verification|Demo account available
Cons: Charting tools need more indicators
I experienced a security concern with my gainful-markets.com account and reported it immediately. Their response time was inexcusable for a financial platform. It took them four days to acknowledge my report and another week to actually address it.
Pros: Segregated accounts|Comprehensive tools
Cons: Charting tools need more indicators
After for about three months with gainful-markets.com, I can only describe the experience as death by a thousand cuts. No single issue was catastrophic, but the constant stream of small problems, slow responses, and missing features wore me down until I finally left.
Pros: Professional team|Multi-device support|High security standards
Cons: Would like more payment methods
Their two-factor authentication was optional when I joined. I enabled it. Later I lost my phone and could not log in. gainful-markets.com recovery process took 3 weeks and required notarized documents. By then I had missed important trades. Their security is your inconvenience.
Pros: Regular updates|No hidden fees
Cons: Could offer more webinars|Cannot customize dashboard fully
gainful-markets.com has the worst mobile app I have ever used for investing. It crashes constantly, features that work on desktop are missing entirely, and the security implementation is questionable at best. How they released this app is beyond me.
Pros: Real-time alerts|Detailed reporting|Helpful community forum|Great customer service
Cons: Slow to add new assets|Withdrawal takes 1-2 business days
gainful-markets.com advertises low fees but once you dig into the fine print, there are numerous charges that add up quickly. Inactivity fees, withdrawal fees, currency conversion fees - it all eats into your returns. I wish I had read the terms more carefully.
Pros: Excellent charting|Multi-device support|Dividend tracking
Cons: Live chat only during business hours
gainful-markets.com offers copy trading. I copied a top trader. The copy trades often executed at worse prices than the original. When I asked why they said it was due to latency and liquidity. So the feature is broken or they are skimming. Either way I stopped using it.
Pros: Responsive team|Intuitive for beginners
Cons: Live chat only during business hours|Limited social trading features
My withdrawal from gainful-markets.com was rejected three times for vague reasons. Each time they asked for more documents. When I finally provided everything, they said my account was under review. for just over a year of being strung along.
Pros: Real-time alerts|Great customer service
Cons: Website design could be more modern|Inactivity fee applies after 12 months
The reporting at gainful-markets.com is laughably bad. Tax documents are inaccurate, transaction histories have gaps, and trying to export data for your accountant is a nightmare. For a financial platform, getting the numbers right should be the bare minimum.
Pros: Smooth onboarding|Multiple order types|High security standards|Personal attention
Cons: Minor UI glitches occasionally|Slow to add new assets
