Compare fees, spreads, minimum deposits, platforms and regulatory information side by side. Conditions vary by country and legal entity.
Quick verdict
Exness has the higher Brokeradar score
Exness leads this comparison with an editorial score of 4.8/5. JustMarkets has the lowest recorded entry deposit at $1, while Exness offers the broadest platform selection in our current dataset. The right choice still depends on the entity available in your country and the account type you use.
Exness and JustMarkets compete for the same trader: someone outside the EU, UK and North America who wants a small first deposit, MetaTrader, very high leverage and tight spreads. Both are recorded as hybrid A/B-book market makers. The meaningful differences are in the legal entities behind each brand, execution transparency, and account minimums. This page sets out those differences and gives an original verdict based on the Brokeradar dataset.

Exness vs JustMarkets: category-by-category winners
Last checked 2026-09-03
| Category | Winner | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Trading costs (spread + commission) | Exness | Spread-only: Exness records EUR/USD from 0.2 pips against 0.3 pips at JustMarkets. Raw: JustMarkets records $6 round turn against $7 at Exness, both from 0.0 pips, so the raw tier is marginally cheaper at JustMarkets in our data. Overall Exness edges it because the spread-only account is where most clients of both brokers trade. |
| Platforms | Exness | Exness adds its own Exness Terminal to MT4 and MT5. JustMarkets is recorded with MT4 and MT5 only. Neither offers cTrader or TradingView. |
| Regulation and safety by entity | Exness | Exness holds FSA Seychelles, CySEC, FCA and FSCA authorisations with Financial Commission membership. JustMarkets records FSA Seychelles (SD088), CySEC (401/21), FSCA, FSC Mauritius and FSC BVI authorisations, but its CySEC entity does not onboard the retail clients this comparison targets and our dataset records no investor compensation scheme for the offshore entities. Both exclude EU, UK, US, Australian and Canadian residents from their offshore entities. |
| Deposits and withdrawals | Exness | Exness records instant withdrawals and over 60 base currencies. JustMarkets records a broader mix of crypto and local-transfer funding for Asia and Africa, ten base currencies, and a later inactivity fee (after five months versus three at Exness). |
| Account minimums | JustMarkets | JustMarkets' Standard Cent account is recorded from $1, its Standard from $10. Exness Standard starts at $10. JustMarkets records $100 for its Raw Spread account against $200 at Exness. |
| Beginner-friendliness | JustMarkets | The Standard Cent account lets a new trader practise with real money at a fraction of standard lot sizes, and the recorded 40% margin call / 20% stop-out closes losing trades earlier than Exness' 0% stop-out. The weaker regulatory profile is the trade-off. |
| Scalping and EA suitability | Exness | Exness records a 10 ms execution figure and four named liquidity providers with unlimited volume. JustMarkets names two liquidity providers (IS Prime, Sucden Financial) but records no execution-speed figure and a 100-lot cap on Standard. |

Legal entities and country differences
Last checked 2026-09-03
Exness: group headquarters in Seychelles with entities authorised by FSA Seychelles, CySEC (Cyprus), the FCA (UK) and FSCA (South Africa). Financial Commission membership provides an external dispute channel. The UK, EU, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia and the US are among the restricted regions recorded, so retail onboarding happens mainly through the Seychelles entity.
JustMarkets: the Seychelles entity (Just Global Markets Ltd, FSA SD088) serves most international clients, with further licences recorded in Cyprus (CySEC 401/21), South Africa (FSCA), Mauritius (FSC GB22200881) and the BVI. No investor compensation scheme is recorded for the offshore entities. Restricted regions include the EU, UK, US, Australia, Canada and Japan. Leverage up to 1:3000 is available on the offshore entity only.
In practice: a client in, say, Nigeria, Pakistan or Indonesia can open an account with either brand, but the Exness client contracts with a group that also holds FCA and CySEC authorisations, while the JustMarkets client contracts with an entity licensed only in Mauritius. That difference does not change execution quality directly, but it does change what recourse exists if something goes wrong.
Final verdict: Exness vs JustMarkets
Last checked 2026-09-03
Exness is the Brokeradar pick (4.8 vs 4.7). It wins on regulatory depth, withdrawal speed, spread-only pricing and recorded execution metrics, and those are the categories that matter most over a long trading career. JustMarkets is a legitimate alternative for traders who want a cent account, crypto or local funding, or the lower raw commission, and its earlier stop-out is actually a safer default for inexperienced traders. If you choose JustMarkets, do so knowing that your counterparty is a Mauritius-licensed entity with no compensation scheme recorded.
Exness vs JustMarkets: frequently asked questions
Last checked 2026-09-03
Is JustMarkets regulated?
Our dataset records FSA Seychelles, CySEC, FSCA, FSC Mauritius and FSC BVI licences for JustMarkets, but no investor compensation scheme for the offshore entities that serve most clients. Exness, by comparison, holds FSA Seychelles, CySEC, FCA and FSCA authorisations, with the same caveat that its CySEC and FCA entities do not serve retail clients.
Which broker has tighter spreads?
Exness on the spread-only account (EUR/USD from 0.2 pips vs 0.3 pips recorded). On raw accounts both record 0.0 pips; JustMarkets' $6 round-turn commission is $1 lower than Exness' $7.
Which broker offers higher leverage?
JustMarkets records up to 1:3000; Exness records an unlimited-leverage option on its offshore entity. Both figures are for non-EU/UK entities only and both carry the risk of very fast losses.
Which is better for a $1 to $10 first deposit?
JustMarkets' Standard Cent account is recorded from $1 and its Standard from $10; Exness Standard starts at $10. For a genuinely tiny first deposit the cent account at JustMarkets is the more practical option.
Which has faster withdrawals?
