Pros and cons
Pros
- The stock trade fee is $0 and the pricing model is commission free and low fees.
- Regulated by CySEC, Financial Services Commission (Mauritius) and Financial Services Authority (Seychelles), so each account sits with a named supervisor.
- Client money protection of EU ICS up to EUR 20,000 for EU clients.
- A market list of forex, CFDs and crypto, with crypto and mobile app on the platform.
- The audience is beginners and experienced, so the account is pitched at both ends of experience.
Cons
- Protection is EU ICS up to EUR 20,000 and covers EU clients, so an account booked with the Mauritius or Seychelles entity sits outside it.
- The market list runs to forex, CFDs and crypto, which is narrower than ActivTrades at stocks, ETFs and forex.
- Retail money losses are high across the compared brokers at 71.22%, and this account trades leveraged CFDs and crypto.
Who it suits
- Traders who want forex, CFDs, crypto and metals together without a per-trade commission.
- EU clients who prefer a CySEC-regulated entity and EU ICS up to EUR 20,000.
- Beginners and experienced traders, since the stated audience covers beginners and experienced.
Who should look elsewhere
- Share and ETF investors, since ActivTrades covers stocks, ETFs and forex.
- Traders who prefer a per-trade charge, such as eToro at $1 to $2.
- Anyone uncomfortable holding an account with the Mauritius or Seychelles entity, since protection of EU ICS up to EUR 20,000 applies to EU clients.
Who regulates it
MC Prime is authorised in the jurisdictions named in its licences. The Cyprus operation is regulated by the CySEC under licence 299/16. The Mauritius operation sits with the Financial Services Commission (Mauritius) under licence GB23201764, and the Seychelles operation is regulated by the Financial Services Authority (Seychelles) under licence SD184. The licences are held separately, so the entity named on your account documents decides the rulebook that applies to you.
How your money is protected
Client money protection is stated as EU ICS up to EUR 20,000, which covers EU clients rather than every entity in the group. The regulated entities are CySEC, Financial Services Commission (Mauritius) and Financial Services Authority (Seychelles): the Cyprus operation under the CySEC, licence 299/16, the Mauritius operation under the Financial Services Commission (Mauritius), licence GB23201764, and the Seychelles operation under the Financial Services Authority (Seychelles), licence SD184. An account held with the Mauritius or Seychelles entity sits outside that EU scheme, so the protection on offer depends on where the account is booked.
The company behind it
The brand sits under Magic Compass Group. The group holds 299/16 for its Cyprus operation, GB23201764 for its Mauritius operation and SD184 for its Seychelles operation, each licence held by a separate regulated entity. Clients are booked with the entity that matches their registration, so the account agreement should name that entity and its licence. If the paperwork is vague about the entity, ask before you fund it.

Frequently asked questions
What does it cost to trade at MC Prime?+
The stock trade fee is $0 and the pricing model is commission free and low fees, so the fee sheet carries no per-trade commission. XTB also lists a stock trade fee of €0, while eToro's runs $1 to $2. On the site, MC Prime's cost score is 9.4 against an overall 9.4.
Who regulates MC Prime?+
Regulation sits with CySEC, Financial Services Commission (Mauritius) and Financial Services Authority (Seychelles). The Cyprus operation is licensed by the CySEC under 299/16, the Mauritius operation by the Financial Services Commission (Mauritius) under GB23201764, and the Seychelles operation by the Financial Services Authority (Seychelles) under SD184. Check which of them your account is booked with before you deposit.
How is my money protected?+
Investor protection is stated as EU ICS up to EUR 20,000, which covers EU clients. Accounts opened with the Mauritius or Seychelles entities sit outside that EU scheme, and the rulebook that applies follows the licence on your paperwork: 299/16, GB23201764 or SD184.
What markets can I trade?+
The list covers forex, CFDs and crypto, and crypto and mobile app are also offered. For a wider range, ActivTrades covers stocks, ETFs and forex. MC Prime's offer score is 8.9, which reflects the instrument list and the platform features rather than the fee side.
Is MC Prime aimed at beginners or experienced traders?+
Both. The stated audience is beginners and experienced, and the account runs on a commission free and low fees model, so the same fee sheet serves a first position and a larger one. The features listed are crypto and mobile app, so check they cover the tools a beginner needs before funding.
Which company runs the brand?+
The legal entity behind MC Prime is Magic Compass Group. The group operates under 299/16 in Cyprus, GB23201764 in Mauritius and SD184 in Seychelles. The entity name on your agreement should match the licence your account runs under.
What are the odds of losing money?+
Leveraged products carry real risk, and across the brokers compared here 71.22% of retail accounts lose money. The market list of forex, CFDs and crypto mixes leveraged CFDs and crypto with forex and metals, so position size matters more than the $0 stock trade fee.
How does MC Prime score on the site?+
The overall score is 9.4, made up of 9.4 on cost, 8.9 on offer and 9.7 on trust. The trust part is the strongest of those, which lines up with the licences held and the EU ICS up to EUR 20,000 figure.
