Guide
Reviews can be bought and registers can be copied. A withdrawal cannot be faked: the platform either returns your money, on time, minus published costs — or it shows you, at test size, exactly what would have happened at full size.

This protocol is the paid heart of our Kit, printed here in outline because it protects people who never buy anything: make the platform prove the exit before you fund the entrance.
Deposit the smallest amount you would still care about losing — for most readers, the viable-minimum fraction, not the advertised minimum. Make one or two small, ordinary trades so the account behaves like a real one (some platforms treat a no-trade withdrawal differently). Then withdraw everything, to the same rail the deposit came from, and start a clock.
Clean: money arrives within the published timeframe, the amount matches the published fees, no human had to 'approve' anything unusual. Yellow: delays explained by a document request that the platform's own terms actually list. Red: new fees appear, the withdrawal is converted into 'bonus' conditions, support goes quiet, or a manager calls to talk you out of it. Red at test size is the whole answer — there is no version of the story where it improves at ten times the money.
Deposits are checked by machines; withdrawals are where residency, entity and liquidity problems surface — the industry pattern behind 'the withdrawal gap', the most common complaint category against offshore platforms. Residency mismatches in particular are often enforced at withdrawal, not deposit: the account that was easy to open becomes 'unsupported country' exactly when money tries to leave.
A platform that 'rewards' your test withdrawal with a deposit bonus for topping up is marketing at the exact moment of maximum information. Take the information. Leave the bonus.
The free check gives you the verdict for one country and one broker. The Deposit Safety Kit gives you the complete walkthroughs: how to verify the entity in the broker's own legal footer, where on your regulator's site the register and the warning lists live, how to read a compensation scheme, and the first-withdrawal test protocol — deposit small, withdraw first, then decide.
