Exness deposit methods for Pakistan
Exness does not publish a fixed list of methods for each country. Per Exness, shown only in the Personal Area; depends on registered region.
This means we cannot give you a complete list for Pakistan. The methods you see can depend on:
- the country you registered from;
- your verification status;
- whether a payment provider is available at that moment.
The general types of payment are explained on separate pages:
These pages describe how each type works in general. They do not confirm that a given method is open to your account. Only your Personal Area shows that.
Also check the withdrawal side before you deposit. Per Exness, funds can be withdrawn to own personal payment accounts only. Use a payment account in your own name. See Withdrawal methods.
Exness minimum deposit
The minimum depends on the account type, and also on your region and payment method.
| Account type | Minimum deposit per Exness |
|---|---|
| Standard | From 10 USD; may vary by location or payment method |
| Standard Cent | Minimum deposit applicable; may vary based on payment method or geographic location |
| Pro, Raw Spread, Zero | At least 200 USD (depending on regional requirements) |
Exness also says that Standard and Standard Cent accounts have a minimum deposit that is low; depends on payment method and/or location.
The amount that applies to you appears in the Personal Area when you select a method. A minimum deposit is the smallest amount the system accepts. It is not a recommended trading balance. With leverage, a small balance can be lost in a few moves. Read Risk management before you trade, and compare accounts on Account types.

Currency conversion
Every trading account has an account currency. If you pay in a different currency, the amount is converted at some point between your bank or provider and your trading account.
- The Standard account's listed currencies include PKR. The full list is: AED, BND, EUR, INR, KZT, OMR, THB, XOF, ARS, BRL, GBP, JOD, MAD, PHP, UAH, ZAR, AUD, CAD, GHS, JPY, MXN, PKR, UGX, MBT, AZN, CHF, HKD, KES, MYR, QAR, USD, BDT, CNY, HUF, KRW, NGN, SAR, UZS, BHD, EGP, IDR, KWD, NZD, SGD, VND.
- Standard Cent accounts use cent currencies: USC, EUC, GBC, CHC, AUC, CAC, JPC (MT5/Exness only), IDC (MT5/Exness only), THC (MT5/Exness only), VNC (MT5/Exness only). For example, a 5 USD deposit gives a balance of 500 USC.
When the payment currency and the account currency differ, ask two questions:
- Who converts? It may be your bank, the payment provider, or the broker side.
- At what rate?
Exness's own sources here do not say which applies to each method. Check this in the Personal Area before you confirm, and check with your bank. If conversion happens twice, you may lose value on both steps. See Currency conversion and SBP exchange rates for reference rates.
Fees
Exness states: Exness covers third-party costs; some deposit fees may apply on specific methods.
Your own bank or provider can still charge you, for example for international or currency transactions. Check the fee shown in the Personal Area, and ask your bank. More detail is on Payment fees.
When the funds appear
Per Exness, deposits and withdrawals can be made 24/7.
Exness also says that if a deposit or withdrawal is not instant, it will be processed within 24 hours if not instant.
How long the money takes to arrive also depends on the method and on your bank or provider. "Processed" on the Exness side is not always the same as "arrived". See Payment processing hours.
What to do if a deposit is delayed
- Check the status. Look at the transaction history in your Personal Area. Make sure you funded the right trading account.
- Check the method's time. Some methods are not instant. Wait for the processing period stated above before you assume a problem.
- Check your bank or provider. Confirm the payment actually left your account and was not blocked or reversed. Banks in Pakistan may block transfers of this type, given the SBP position described at the top of this page.
- Keep the records. Save the transaction reference, the date, the amount, and a screenshot of the confirmation.
- Contact Exness support. Use only the official channels listed on the Exness site or inside the Personal Area. Do not share your password or one-time codes with anyone who contacts you first.
- Do not send the payment again. A repeated payment can lead to two charges.
For security measures, Exness lists segregated accounts, OTP, PCI DSS, 3D Secure. See Payment security for what these terms mean.
