Partner disclosure
TradeKavach is free to read, and it is funded by affiliate partnerships. This page explains exactly how that works, because you should not have to guess.
The short version
Some of the links on this site — mainly the buttons that say things like "Open an Account" or "Try the Free Demo" — are partner links. If you click one and go on to register, we may receive a commission from the platform. You pay nothing extra, your terms are not different, and nothing about your account changes because you arrived through us.
How to spot a partner link
Every commercial link on this site goes through our own redirect at /go/… and is marked rel="sponsored nofollow noopener". Editorial links — to regulators, to source documents, to other pages on this site — are ordinary links and are never paid.
What the commission does not buy
- It does not buy a verdict. No partner sees a page before it is published, approves wording, or has any right of reply built into our process.
- It does not soften the risk or the regulatory picture. We report that IQ Option appears on the RBI's Alert List of entities not authorised to deal in forex under FEMA or to run a forex electronic trading platform, that it is not registered with SEBI, and that its CySEC licence (247/14, held by IQBroker Europe Ltd, formerly IQOption Europe Ltd) covers clients in the European Economic Area rather than clients in India. Those facts sit on the same pages as the buttons.
- It does not turn "unverified" into "verified". Where an operator figure could not be confirmed on an official source, we say so, whether or not a commission depends on that page.
Risk warning
Digital options, CFDs and margined FX are high-risk products. Most retail clients lose money trading them, and you can lose the full amount you put in. Nothing on TradeKavach is financial, legal or tax advice, and no page here is a recommendation that you should trade. If you decide to fund an account from India, the responsibility under FEMA — and any tax due on gains — is yours; a chartered accountant is the right person to ask.
Questions
If you think a page reads like it was written for the commission rather than for you, say so: [email protected]. We will either fix it or explain why we disagree. Our editorial process is described on the editorial standards page.
