Before You Begin — Read This First

Prepare these three things before starting the registration process.

  • Remove any existing Exness app from your mobile phone before starting. A clean install using our referral link is required for the partnership to register correctly.
  • Have your National ID Card ready — front and back photos must be clear, well-lit, and with all four corners fully visible. Blurry or cropped IDs will fail verification.
  • Use a new, dedicated Gmail or Yahoo email that has never been registered with Exness before. A fresh account avoids registration conflicts and keeps your trading separate.

30 Steps to Your Live Trading Account

Follow every screenshot in sequence. The entire process from registration to first login takes approximately 20 minutes. Do not skip steps — each one builds on the last.

1

Register Your Account

Open the registration page through our official referral link, enter your email, choose your country, create a password, and verify your email address. This is the foundation of your trading account.

Steps 1 – 8
01
Registration

Open the Official Registration Link

Tap the referral link provided by Z Trade University — do not search for Exness directly. The link is pre-coded with our referral ID, which unlocks all your premium benefits automatically.

You must use our link — not the Exness homepage — for your benefits to activate.
Step 1 — Open the Exness registration link

Referral Code: 5dogk171n8

Use this referral code if Exness asks for a partner or invite code during the registration process.

02

Enter Your Email Address

Type your new, dedicated Gmail or Yahoo email address into the registration form. This becomes your permanent Exness login — keep it accessible and secure.

Step 2 — Enter email address
03
Registration

Select Your Country of Residence

Choose your country from the dropdown. This determines the deposit methods, local currency options, and regulatory framework that applies to your account. Select accurately.

Step 3 — Select your country
04
Registration

Create a Secure Password

Set a strong password — use at least 8 characters combining uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and a symbol. Store it safely; Exness support cannot recover lost passwords.

Open your email inbox and look for a verification message from Exness. If it doesn't appear within two minutes, check your spam or junk folder — it sometimes lands there.

Step 6 — Check email inbox
07
Registration

Enter the Email Verification Code

Copy the 6-digit code from the Exness email and enter it on the verification screen. Do not close the app while switching to your email — the code expires in a few minutes.

Steps 9 – 14
09
Personal Info

Enter Your Full Legal Name

Type your first and last name exactly as they appear on your National ID Card. Even minor spelling differences can delay verification. No nicknames or shortened forms.

Name must be an exact match to your government-issued ID.

Enter the SMS Verification Code

Exness will send a one-time password (OTP) to your phone number via SMS. Enter this code on the verification screen to confirm your mobile number.

The OTP is valid for a limited time — enter it promptly.

Step 14 — Confirm address
3

Complete Your KYC Verification

Upload your identity documents for Exness's Know Your Customer (KYC) verification. This is a regulatory requirement. Clear, high-quality photos are essential — poor photos are the most common cause of delays.

Steps 15 – 20
15

Navigate to the Verification Section

From your Personal Area, go to the Profile or Verification section. Exness requires identity verification to unlock full deposit, withdrawal, and trading capabilities.

Step 15 — Start KYC verification

17
KYC

Upload ID Card — Front Side

Take or upload a clear photo of the front of your National ID Card. All four corners must be visible. The card should be on a plain dark background with good natural lighting.

No glare, no shadows, no cut corners — the full card must be clearly visible.
Step 17 — Upload ID front side
18
KYC

Upload ID Card — Back Side

Upload a clear photo of the back of your National ID Card with the same quality requirements. Both sides are mandatory for successful ID verification.

Step 18 — Upload ID back side
19
KYC

Take Your Selfie Photo

Follow the on-screen instructions to take a selfie. Ensure good frontal lighting, a neutral background, and that your face is clearly visible. Remove sunglasses or hats.

Some regions require a selfie with your ID held next to your face.
Step 19 — Selfie photo verification
