ZKTrade Review

About ZKTrade

ZKTrade, formerly promoted via the domain zkmt4.com, is not regulated by any recognized financial authority. The platform claims an Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL 246943), which actually belongs to an unrelated entity, Zank Capital Pty Ltd, and has no connection to ZKTrade; the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) contains no record of ZKTrade or related entities. Regulatory investigations and comparisons to credible registries confirm the absence of authorization. ()

The German financial regulator BaFin issued warnings on August 22, 2025 and September 23, 2025, noting that ZKTrade Pro—promoted through WhatsApp groups and the app “ZKTRADEPRO”—is not connected to the legitimate ZacksTrade Advisory LLC and is a case of identity theft. Consumers were explicitly cautioned that financial or banking services offered under that name were conducted without permission. The domain zkmt4.com is currently inactive; investigations revealed no valid WHOIS record or DNS entries, signaling its deregistration or suspension. ()
