FxPro Raw+ account (South Africa): commission, funding, vs Standard
Raw+ is the commission account. FxPro's FAQ (read September 2026) prices FX and metals from 0 pip plus $3.50 per side per standard lot, charged when you open. About $7 round-turn plus the live spread. Other symbols on that account are usually spread-only. Type map: account types. SA routes here often sit under FSCA FSP 45052. If Direct shows a different rate, use Direct.

What you actually pay
| Item | Raw+ (this desk, September 2026) | Standard |
|---|---|---|
| FX and metals spread print | From 0 pip (not an average) | Spread-led, often from about 1.2 pips on majors in calm prints |
| Commission | About $3.50 per side per standard lot (~$7 round-turn), charged when you open | No separate commission line |
| Other instruments | Usually floating spread, zero commission | Spread only |
| Funding indication on this desk | About USD 1,000 common; confirm cashier | No fixed Wallet minimum stated; cards and e-wallets often ~$100 or ZAR equivalent |
"From 0.0" is a starting print. News, rollover and thin books still widen. Verify on a demo in the session you trade. Illustrative numbers, not a live ticket.
When Standard is still cheaper
Two EURUSD lots a month and the $7 round-turn is smaller than a typical ZAR card markup. Scalping London overlap is the other case: you pay commission because the bid-ask is tighter. Same hour, same size, two demos. Keep the cheaper all-in.
cTrader tickets often use the same commission shape. The platform page is still platforms / cTrader. Switching later can mean a second account, so don't treat this as a free toggle.
FSCA route, not a UK page
This desk's SA onboarding is usually FxPro under FSCA FSP 45052. Leverage and the cashier follow that name. Read FSCA licence before you send rand. Rails: ZAR deposits.
This desk treats about USD 1,000 as a common Raw+ Wallet indication. Cards can still floor near $100 or ZAR equivalent. Elite is a different pile (about USD 30,000 in the notes we have). Raw+ does not "unlock" Elite.
