Professional Clients
How to become a Professional Client?
What is a
Professional client?
A professional client is deemed capable of making his or her own investment decisions, and understanding the risks involved, with greater autonomy than retail clients.
Some clients may be eligible to classify themselves as professional clients. If you’re eligible, you can apply via the client area.

How can I become a
Professional Client?
To qualify as a Professional Client, you must meet at least two of the three criteria below:
-
1 |
You have carried out transactions, of a significant size, on the relevant market at an average frequency of 10 trades per quarter over the previous four quarters (with Tickmill and other providers).
-
2 |
The size of your financial instrument portfolio, including cash deposits and financial instruments, exceeds €500,000.
-
3 |
You work or have worked in the financial sector for at least one year in a professional position, which requires knowledge of leveraged products such as CFDs.
Clients will be requested to provide supporting documentation as evidence to ensure the above requirements are met as part of the client re-classification process. Please note that you will be responsible for keeping Tickmill informed about any changes that could affect your current categorisation.
