Equitiz Review

About Equitiz

Equitiz offers online trading services with account tiers ranging from Basic to VIP and a stated minimum deposit of €250, with maximum leverage up to 1:50 (). The broker is based in Switzerland (Bahnhofstrasse 52, 8001 Zürich) and provides an email of support@equitiz.co (). There is no evidence of regulation: neither the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) nor the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) lists Equitiz as authorised (). The UK FCA issued a public warning on 15 September 2023 stating Equitiz offers financial services without authorisation (). The Spanish regulator CNMV also added Equitiz to its warning list on 2 October 2023 for providing investment services without authorisation ().

Numerous customer complaints report that Equitiz blocks withdrawals or delays them indefinitely, requests additional deposits, and becomes unresponsive when clients attempt to withdraw funds (). Independent fraud assessments give Equitiz a low trust rating (28.2/100), signalling high risk, with technical indicators of phishing, spam, and other suspicious activity ().
