Our verdict on each
FP Markets
FP Markets suits traders who want a regulated broker with a real protection scheme behind the money, not the lowest entry cost. It is regulated in Australia and the US, and the US entity carries SIPC cover of SIPC up to USD 500,000. The catch is the entry hurdle: a minimum deposit of AUD 100.
Wealthify
Wealthify suits UK beginners who want a managed portfolio rather than a dealing account, with a minimum investment of £1,000 to £5,000. The appeal is the managed approach and the ISA and SIPP choice; the drawback is a starting amount well above most rivals.

Pros and cons
FP Markets
Pros
- Regulated in Australia and the US, with the US entity covered by SIPC up to USD 500,000.
- A single, named legal entity, RB INTERNATIONAL MARKETS (USA) LLC, holds the SIPC membership, licence SIPC member 71021.
- A focused product: forex and cfds, without a wider asset mix to learn.
Cons
- The minimum deposit of AUD 100 is well above the site median of €4.64.
- A limited market list, forex and cfds, so it does not cover shares, ETFs or crypto.
- The cost score is 3.1, one of the weaker parts of the profile.
Wealthify
Pros
- A management fee of 0.6% sits below the 0.5% to 1.5% charged on Vivid Standard business plans.
- The whole account is reachable through Web, iOS app and Android app, so a phone and a browser cover it end to end.
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, putting phone and chat help alongside email.
Cons
- The minimum investment of £1,000 to £5,000 is well above the $100 entry point at Axos Invest, and Wealthify ranks 68 of 82 brands on this measure.
- The management fee of 0.6% is not the lowest available, since eToro charges a management fee of 0%.
- The account line-up covers isa and sipp only, with no joint, corporate or general investment account in the range.
Who each suits
FP Markets
Who it suits
- Traders who weight regulator and protection scheme above a low starting amount
- Anyone happy to trade a single market pair of products, forex and cfds
- US clients who want the SIPC scheme, SIPC up to USD 500,000, behind the account
Who should look elsewhere
- Small starters, who will find AUD 100 a high way in
- Investors wanting shares, ETFs or crypto, since forex and cfds covers neither
- eToro users who want a much wider asset list, stocks, etfs and forex
Wealthify
Who it suits
- Beginners who want a portfolio chosen for them and an app in their hand, with Web, iOS app and Android app and an audience of beginners.
- Savers building an ISA or SIPP through isa and sipp who can clear a £1,000 to £5,000 minimum and prefer one recurring charge.
- Readers who value being able to ask a question, with email, chat and phone available across phone, chat and email.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone starting below £1,000 to £5,000: Axos Invest takes a managed portfolio minimum of $100, quoted in US dollars.
- Readers whose first question is the smallest ongoing charge: eToro's management fee is 0%.
- Traders who want to place their own orders: Wealthify runs the low fees managed model around portfolios in esg and cash rather than self-directed dealing.
Questions about each
FP Markets
What is the minimum deposit at FP Markets?+
The minimum deposit is AUD 100. That is a high way in, and it sits well above the site median of €4.64. Anyone starting with a small amount should look at a broker with a lower entry figure before committing.
Is my money protected at FP Markets?+
The US-facing entity, RB INTERNATIONAL MARKETS (USA) LLC, is covered by SIPC up to USD 500,000. That protection belongs to the US entity, so clients of other entities in the group should check which scheme applies to them before depositing.
Wealthify
What does Wealthify charge?+
Wealthify charges a single management fee of 0.6% on the portfolio it manages, and the same fee applies to both account types in the range. Deposits, withdrawals and transfers are not charged either, so the recurring percentage is the number to hold on to when you compare. There is no order ticket to price on this account.
How much do I need to start with Wealthify?+
The minimum investment runs £1,000 to £5,000, and the minimum deposit is £1,000. That is a high starting point for a robo-advisor: Axos Invest quotes a managed portfolio minimum of $100 in US dollars, and the median minimum across the brands compared is €25. Anyone starting below Wealthify's threshold needs a different provider.
