At Valorstead you know the possible costs before you start. We state the opening deposit, the main charges, trading costs and the terms for depositing and withdrawing, all in Australian dollars.

There is no monthly platform fee. The amount shown on each plan is the starting capital allocated to trading, not a membership or subscription charge.

Important: we do not charge a monthly fee for access to the platform. The amount in each plan is the initial capital allocated to trading activity, not a membership fee or subscription. Trading commissions and other applicable costs are disclosed separately below.

Network feesMay apply to operations involving crypto-assets, and are paid to the network, not to us.
Payment provider feesMay be charged by a third-party payment provider, such as a card issuer or wallet.

Individual assets or servicesMay be charged by brokers or other partners, depending on the asset or service you choose.

Depositing, withdrawing, timelines and limits

Deposits and withdrawals

We charge nothing for deposits or withdrawals on any supported method. Your own bank or card provider may apply its own charges, so it is worth checking with them if you pay in a foreign currency. The full list of methods is on the deposit and withdrawal methods page.

Timelines

Deposits are normally credited instantly. Withdrawals take from within 24 hours to five business days depending on the method, after our checks are complete. The withdrawal policy explains what can cause a delay.

Limits

The minimum starting amount is set by your plan. Transaction limits depend on your verification level and on the payment method, and the limit that applies to you is shown in your account before you confirm.

Important notes

Fees reduce the result of any trade, and a profitable strategy can still be outweighed by costs. Fees may change, and any change is published here before it applies. Trading can lead to losses.
