FxPro is one of the forex and CFD brokers that offer a swap-free account, often marketed as an Islamic account, alongside its standard account types. As with swap-free accounts across the industry, the idea is to remove the overnight swap (rollover) interest that would otherwise be charged or credited on a leveraged position held past the daily rollover, since ongoing interest is the element many consider incompatible with Sharia. FxPro applies swap-free status on request to eligible account types, may restrict it to certain instruments, and may add a fixed administration fee on some positions once they pass a grace period, in place of standard swap. Exact eligibility, instrument coverage and fee rules can change, so confirm the current terms directly with FxPro support before applying. Weighing a swap-free account on cost alone is not enough — check the spread, commission and swap policy together, since an account with no swap but a wider spread can still cost more over a long-held position than one with a small swap and a tight spread.

What to check on the FxPro swap-free (Islamic) account

Frequently asked questions

Does FxPro offer an Islamic account?
FxPro is among the brokers that offer a swap-free account option, commonly called an Islamic account, which removes standard overnight swap interest on eligible positions. Confirm the current eligibility and instrument coverage directly with FxPro before opening one.
Is an FxPro Islamic account completely free of extra charges?
Not necessarily. Swap-free accounts, including FxPro's Islamic account, can carry a fixed administration fee on some instruments after a grace period, instead of standard swap. Check the exact fee schedule with FxPro support.
How does a swap-free Islamic account differ from a standard account?
The main difference is that a standard account is charged or credited swap interest for holding a leveraged position overnight, while a swap-free (Islamic) account removes that interest on eligible positions. Spreads, commissions and other trading conditions are otherwise usually the same or similar.
Which FxPro account types can go swap-free?
FxPro offers swap-free (Islamic) status on eligible account types on request, with no overnight swap interest and a possible administration fee on certain instruments after a grace period — see our FxPro swap rates page for how swap is charged on a standard account.
What should I compare before choosing a swap-free account?
Look beyond the swap-free label: compare the spread, any commission, which instruments and account types qualify, and whether an administration fee applies after a grace period. A tight spread with a small swap can sometimes cost less overall than a swap-free account with a wider spread.
Is trading with a swap-free account automatically halal?
Removing overnight interest addresses one concern some traders have about Sharia compliance, but it does not by itself certify that trading CFDs is permissible for you. Whether trading is suitable for you is a personal matter — consult a qualified scholar.
