The payment systems

 

The choice of a payment system for Forex brokers is one of the crucial moments for traders in Forex trading.  Let's have an in-depth consideration of this issue.

The algorithm of payment system work

 

The customer conducts a money transfer to the payment system account from the get-go and receives a certain amount of electronic money in return; this is the equivalent of the money transfer. The payment system becomes a kind of debtor of the client and has financial obligations to him/her, undertaking to perform a reverse transaction, if necessary.

 

With the help of electronic money, the client replenishes his/her deposit or investor account by logging into a personal account linked to the platform of the brokerage company. Then, using virtual money, the trader performs some speculations and increases the deposit at his conceit.

The brokerage company returns the electronic money to the payment system and receives real money in return.

This method is profitable for all three parties: trader, brokerage company and payment system.
