SPREAD CO

SPREAD CO discloses spread betting and CFD accounts. The supplied corporate record identifies one UK legal entity, Spread Co Limited, founded on 7 November 2005; the brand and legal entity should not be treated as interchangeable. Its website describes the Spread Betting account as covering more than 1,000 markets across indices, FX, commodities and equities, with spreads from 0.6, although the quoted unit and reference instrument are unspecified. It also advertises minimum stakes from 0.01/1p and retail margins from 3.33% on major FX and 5% on indices. The CFD account covers shares, commodities, forex and other markets. Its “No commissions” headline is qualified by disclosed FTSE 100 equity charges starting at 0.05%, so it is not evidence of universally commission-free trading.

The company describes web and mobile platforms, individual CFD position management and a free charting package for spread betting. No separately identified software or terminal records establish platform specifications or performance. Our site's approved check against the FCA's official register matched Spread Co Limited and number 446677 on 8 October 2026. The supplied authorisation record is active and dates from 6 October 2006. Observed permissions include receiving and transmitting orders, executing orders, dealing as principal and agent, and managing investments. A financial-promotion requirement is also recorded, without further detail. This supports the named entity's regulatory registration and observed permissions, not a blanket endorsement of every advertised product or service.

The account extracts do not identify their contracting entity, eligible jurisdictions or client classifications. Consequently, the registration cannot by itself establish which terms and protections apply to a particular customer. Negative balance protection is advertised for spread betting, while the regulator-level data lists investor protection and segregated accounts; customer-specific coverage and conditions remain unestablished. Both account descriptions advertise zero financing on short index positions, but the CFD text says futures financing is embedded in prices and other products can incur charges. The evidence therefore supports a registered entity and disclosed account choices, while leaving contractual applicability, complete costs and operational service quality insufficiently documented.
