How we tested STAK SECURITIES LTD (ex STAK FX LTD)
This review is based on direct testing. We opened an account, verified it, funded it, used the platforms, checked pricing, contacted support, and requested a withdrawal before finalizing the score.
Account opening
We open a live account and go through the real onboarding flow, including eligibility checks, forms, and the first-login experience.
Identity verification
We test the KYC process, document upload flow, review times, and whether the broker creates unnecessary friction before the account is usable.
Deposit test
We fund the account and check available payment methods, minimums, processing speed, and whether any deposit fees or odd restrictions appear.
Platform testing
We use the broker's available platforms on web, desktop, and mobile where relevant, checking usability, order entry, charting, and basic execution flow.
Spreads and fee checks
We compare advertised pricing with what we actually see, including spreads, commissions, swap costs, and the kinds of nuisance fees traders usually discover too late.
Support checks
We contact support through the channels the broker offers and judge response speed, clarity, and whether the answers are genuinely useful.
Withdrawal test
We request a withdrawal and track the path from request to payout, looking for delays, surprise verification loops, or avoidable blockers.
Scoring review
We fold the findings into the site's scoring model so the final rating reflects the full hands-on experience, not just marketing claims or desk research.
Evidence labels
How to read the evidence in our STAK SECURITIES LTD (ex STAK FX LTD) review
This review mixes hands-on testing, broker documentation, third-party records, and visible unknowns. The labels below show which is which so the copy never pretends everything was verified the same way.
Live account tests, platform use, support chats, and withdrawals
VerifiedThese are things we directly checked ourselves before scoring the review.
Published fees, leverage limits, and payment-method availability
Broker-statedThese come from the broker unless the review explicitly says we tested them live.
Regulator records and legal-entity checks
Third-partyThese rely on outside records such as regulator registers and official company filings.
Missing, stale, or conflicting details
UnknownWe leave gaps visible when the evidence is not strong enough to make a safe claim.
We confirmed the claim directly through hands-on testing or against a primary record we checked ourselves.
Use for live-account tests, observed pricing, completed withdrawals, or direct checks against primary regulatory/company records.
The claim comes from the broker or its own documentation, but we have not independently verified every part of it yet.
Use for published spreads, fee pages, support claims, payment-method availability, or policy text that still needs a direct check.
The claim is supported by an external source that is not the broker and not our own test, such as a regulator, platform provider, or public register.
Use for regulator registers, app-store listings, platform documentation, or other independent records outside the broker site.
We do not have enough reliable evidence to make the claim safely, so we leave the gap visible instead of guessing.
Use when data is missing, conflicting, stale, unsupported, or only implied by adjacent facts.
Review update log

Rebuilt the page around verified STAK public disclosures
Logged update- Removed unsupported retail-broker defaults such as invented deposit, spread, and payment-method claims.

- Added the service lines, client segments, platforms, and ICF statement that are actually published on the official site.
STAK Securities Ltd Overview
The old scaffold was too dumb for what STAK actually publishes.
The official site does not look like a thin single-purpose broker funnel with a couple of guessed payment methods bolted on. It presents STAK Securities Ltd as a Cyprus-regulated business covering:
- brokerage and custody services
- wealth and asset management support
- institutional-style access
- alternative and specialised investments
That is a broader and more credible public profile than the placeholder review suggested.
What We Verified
From CySEC and the firm’s official site, I verified:
- Legal entity: STAK Securities Ltd (ex STAK FX Ltd)
- CySEC licence: 397/21
- Licence date: 08/03/2021
- Company registration number: 396475
- Registered address: 70 Ifigeneias, 1st floor, Office 101, 2003, Nicosia, Cyprus
- Telephone: +357 22 032787
- CySEC email / site contact: info@stak-securities.com
- Approved domain: www.stak-securities.com
The official site also says the firm is authorised and regulated by CySEC and is a member of the Investor Compensation Fund (ICF).
What the Official Site Says STAK Does
STAK publicly divides its offer into several buckets.
On the client side, it says it serves:
- personal wealth management clients
- wealth and asset managers
- specialised investors
On the product and service side, the site lists:
- brokerage and custody services
- futures
- stocks
- ETFs
- commodities
- CFDs
- private equity
- term deposits
- real estate funds
- tangible assets
- IPOs
- lending facilities
- crypto currencies
- structured products
That is a materially better source-based picture than fake Skrill-and-Neteller filler.
Platforms and Access
The official site specifically mentions:
- MT5
- Infront
- desktop, browser, and mobile access
It also advertises ultra-fast order execution, margin trading, charting and analysis tools, and custody functionality.
Regulation and Safety
The regulation checks out cleanly on the primary source side:
- the CySEC register verifies licence 397/21 and the approved domain
- the official site repeats the CySEC status and says the firm is an ICF member
The site also carries standard high-risk warnings around CFDs and leverage, which is what you would expect from a regulated Cyprus investment firm offering complex products.
What Was Not Publicly Disclosed Clearly Enough
The reviewed official pages did not clearly publish:
- minimum deposit
- numerical spreads-from figures
- commission schedule
- leverage caps by client category
- detailed deposit and withdrawal methods or fees
So those claims are not padded in here.
Final Verdict
STAK Securities Ltd looks like a real CySEC-regulated multi-service brokerage and investment firm, not the generic retail CFD template the old page implied.
The strongest verified points are the licence 397/21, the matching approved domain, the broad custody / brokerage / investment-service menu, and the public ICF membership statement.
The main weakness is pricing transparency: the reviewed official pages do not publish enough hard numbers to build a clean retail trading-cost profile.
