Spread Betting Account

Open a spread betting account with Worldspreads.com, the major UK spreadbetting company, and you could be spread betting online within a very short time. Opening a spread betting account with us is a very simple process and we even offer an interactive example of spreadbetting online, so that you quickly become familiar with the basics of UK spread betting.

Your spread betting account can be opened through our website or by calling our Trading Desk’s telephone line. A copy of your passport or Driving License will be required, as well as a copy of a utility bill, to verify your identity. Once you have deposited funds in your new account, you will be notified of your username, password and telephone account number and you can begin spread betting.

On opening your account, you will be offered a free tutorial, explaining the mechanics of the products we use and, depending on your experience, the fundamentals of UK spreadbetting. We also offer fortnightly seminars, hosted by leading spread traders, to help you develop your acumen and your strategies and to maximise your potential for profit.

For more experienced traders, we offer an Advisory Service that draws upon unbiased information on world markets, supplied to us by professional Independent Advisors.

To begin the process of opening a spread betting account with us, take a look at the ‘Getting Started’ section on our website. Here you will be presented with ‘5 Steps to Getting Started’ in clear and simple English.

Risk Warning - A spread bet is a margined product; it is possible to lose more than your initial margin deposit or credit allocation as well as any variation margin that you may be required to deposit from time to time. Therefore you should only speculate with money that you can afford to lose. Spread betting may not be suitable for all customers; therefore please ensure that you fully understand the risk involved and seek independent advice if necessary and prior to entering into such transactions. When spread betting with WorldSpreads you are merely betting on the outcome of a finance instrument, sporting or political event etc. and therefore do not take delivery of any underlying instrument, nor are you entitled to any dividends payable or any other benefits related to the same.Risk disclosure notice.
