Every figure on this page links to the Exness page it came from. Where Exness publishes nothing, we say so and score it zero.
One benchmark instrument per market, in Exness's own units and on its own basis. Metals are below.
Every exness.com and get.exness.help page still answers with a Cloudflare block on 27 September 2026, so everything here is from the Internet Archive's copies of Exness's own pages. Market pages are snapshots of 11 March 2026 (indices), 18 January 2026 (stocks), 25 May 2026 (commodities, pro accounts) and 31 July 2026 (forex); help-centre instrument specifications are snapshots of 8 August and 9 September 2025 (articles last updated June–August 2025). No crypto market page was archived. Exness's spread and swap tables are drawn in the browser from a live feed and are empty in every archived copy.

Leverage on gold is set by the company you are actually onboarded to, not by the brand. A broker can offer 1:1000 through one entity and a fraction of that through another, for the same instrument on the same day.
Exness also advertises 1:Unlimited on gold below $5,000 of equity — metals are not on its exclusion list, where energies are. The ladder is keyed to your account equity, not to position size: 1:1000 from $5,000 and 1:500 from $30,000. Read it with the leverage windows below, which cut gold to 1:1000 or less around every news release and every weekend.
“USD 0 - 999.99: 1:Unlimited (if eligible) / 1:2000 (available by default); USD 1 000 - 4 999.9: 1:2000; USD 5 000 - 29 999.99: 1:1000; USD 30 000 or more: 1:500”
“Unlimited leverage is the highest available leverage setting for all trading account types . ... The trading account must have funds (equity) of less than 5,000 USD . ... Instruments unavailable for unlimited leverage: Exotic (currency pairs), Cryptocurrencies, Commodities (Energies), Stocks, Indices, XPD (currency pairs)”
No gold leverage, because there is no retail client to give it to: Exness states this entity does not offer services to retail clients.
“Exness (Cy) Ltd is a Cyprus Investment Firm, authorized and regulated by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) with license number 178/12. Exness (Cy) Ltd does not offer services to retail clients.”
As with the Cyprus entity, Exness states this one does not serve retail clients either.
“Exness (UK) Ltd ... does not offer services to retail clients.”
A broker is holding your own money rather than paying you a share of profit, so the only question is how easily it comes back.
Exness itself charges no withdrawal fee; some Electronic Payment Systems impose their own, shown per method in the Personal Area.
“No, we do not charge fees on a deposit or withdrawal action. However, certain Electronic Payment Systems (EPS) have their own transaction fees so it is always best to read more about our payment systems to avoid any surprises.”
“The vast majority of withdrawals by Electronic Payment Systems (EPS) are performed instantly, understood to mean that the transaction is reviewed within a few seconds (up to a maximum of 24 hours) without manual processing. You can find the withdrawal processing time for each payment method in the Withdrawal section of your Personal Area.”
“The region provided upon registration of your Exness account dictates which payment methods are available for withdrawals in your Personal Area. As such, you can find out which payment methods are available to you by simply logging into your Personal Area. Your PA will show the available payment methods along with the processing time and commission fee.”
“Each withdrawal method shows its projected processing time, fee (if applicable), and minimum/maximum withdrawal limit.”
“At Exness, we aim to offer quick withdrawals and numerous payment systems to choose from. Our advantage is that you can withdraw funds at any time of any day, including weekends and public holidays. ... Withdrawals can be made any day, any time giving you round-the-clock access to your funds.”
“Verification documents include both proof of identity (POI) and proof of residence (POR) documents. Document verification can take up to 24 hours. ... It must still be valid for six months from the date of upload... The POR must be officially issued by a legitimate authority, certifying residence in the same country registered to the Exness account... Date of issue (must have been issued within the past six months).”
How easily your own money comes back, scored separately from what gold costs here.
The client pays.
the vast majority of EPS withdrawals instant (reviewed within seconds), up to a maximum of 24 hours
The broker does not publish a list of withdrawal methods.
The broker publishes nothing either way.
4.7 from 32,348 reviews.
Ways to withdraw and Charges for leaving the account alone score zero because the firm publishes nothing we could read. Nothing is filled in with a guess.
This score is about getting paid, not about trading rules. It is never averaged into the Freedom Score: a firm can have the most generous rules on the board and still be the hardest place to get money out of.
Every figure comes from Exness’ own pages, quoted above with a link. Tracked since 20 Sep 2026.
These are the Internet Archive's copies of Exness's own pages, mostly snapshots from 2026. Exness's current gold spread, swap and per-instrument commission are drawn in the browser from a live table and could not be read at all: nothing on this page claims to be a live gold price.
