Credit/Debit Cards (VISA/MasterCard only)
Credit/Debit Cards (VISA/MasterCard only)
Steps:
- 1. Log in to myAlpari and go to the "Fund Deposit" section.
- 2. Select "Credit/Debit Card."
- 3. Choose your deposit currency (USD or EUR), the type of the credit/debit card (VISA or MasterCard) and enter your deposit amount. Click "Continue." Fill in the information required by the processing center and click "Submit."
- 4. After you enter your credit/debit card information, a check will automatically be run to determine if your card has been activated in the Verified by Visa or MasterCard SecureCode programs.* If your card has already been activated in either the Verified by Visa or MasterCard SecureCode program,* you can enter your personal code in the special pop-up window. This code is used at all participating online merchants (you can learn more about your personal password at your issuing bank). By entering your password, the issuing bank confirms your identity as the cardholder, allowing you to make your transaction in secure mode. If your card has not yet been authorized in the Verified by Visa or MasterCard SecureCode program,* all deposits made by credit/debit card are made normally.
- 5. Go to your Transaction History in myAlpari to check the status of your payment. If you see the status "Processing," it means that your request has been accepted.
- 6. After you see the status “Funds deposited to account,” log in to your trading platform to confirm that the funds have been posted to your account.
* Verified by Visa and MasterCard SecureCode are programs designed to improve the security and reliability of online payments.
Commission: 2.5%
Processing Time: Several hours. In some circumstances, the processing center may need to initiate an inquiry into your payment. If this happens, it may take longer for the funds to be posted to your account. If you follow the directions carefully, the chances that the processing center will need to interfere will be reduced significantly.
Note: When funds are transferred from a credit/debit card, they will automatically be deposited to a separate, secure transitory account denominated in the deposit currency (either EUR or USD), which is created automatically when a deposit from a credit/debit card is made.
Important:
- To make a deposit using a credit/debit card (for cards with an actual cardholder), you will need to provide the Payments Department with a scanned copy or photo of your passport and a scanned copy or photo of the credit/debit card (front and back). On the front, you should be able to see the cardholder's full name, the name of the bank that issued the card and the first six and the last four digits of the card number (the rest of the digits may be covered). The copy or scan of the reverse side should show the cardholder's signature. The CVC2/CVV2 code must be covered. If you are transferring funds from a prepaid or virtual credit card (one where the cardholder's name is not shown), you will need to send the Payments Department a scan of the official confirmation letter from the issuing bank verifying that you are the cardholder. You may upload scans of your passport and credit/debit card to myAlpari in the "My Profile" section, in "Documents to Upload." Upload the scan or photo of your passport/ID to "Official Proof of Citizenship" and the scan or copy of your credit/debit card to "Scanned Copy of Credit/Debit Card." If you use more than one card to make the deposit, please provide a scanned copy of each card. (Please see clause 5.4.4 in the Regulations on Non-Trading Operations for more about making transfers with a credit/debit card.)
- Deposits to Alpari accounts can only be made from a credit/debit card in the name of the account holder.
- After making a deposit to your account using a credit/debit card, you will only be able to make a withdrawal from this account to another one of your accounts at Alpari or to a bank account (via wire transfer) opened in your name.
- Credit/debit card deposits are processed by PayOnline.
- Transfers to the accounts of third parties will not be accepted. If your deposit is declined, the funds you sent to us will be returned to the credit/debit card with which you attempted to make the deposit.
- The payment agent in Azerbaijan is Irvind Global LTD, located at: BAKU, BILEJERI STQ., MEH.5035 EV 2.
Important: You will only be able to make a deposit to your account from a Visa Electron card if you know the CVC2/CVV2 code. You will also need to call your issuing bank to confirm that your card is set up for making remote payments.
