How can I withdraw my profits?

Profits can be withdrawn using the Bank Wire option only once all other payment options have been refunded. It is our policy that any credit/debit card deposits should be withdrawn to the card in question first, before refunding to any other method, even if other methods were used for funding.

Please bear in mind that we will require a bank statement as proof that you are the bank account holder, before the withdrawal approval. For more details about how to withdraw using the Bank wire option, see: How can I withdraw funds using the Bank Wire option?

Please note that The Raptor Market charges a fixed fee of 10 EUR or trading account currency equivalent from bank wire withdrawals below or equal to 100 EUR or trading account currency equivalent.

‍

Which method can I use to withdraw my funds? What is the withdrawal order?

It is our policy that any credit/debit card deposits should be withdrawn to the card in question first, before refunding to any other method, even if other methods were used for funding.

Kindly note that after withdrawing via credit card, any e-wallet deposits that were made should be refunded via this method too. Once all deposits from the above mentioned payment methods are fully refunded, you will then be able to withdraw to any other payment method of your choice (such as bank transfer), to an account under your name.

‍

How long does it take for you to process my withdrawal request?

During normal working hours, withdrawals are usually processed within a few hours (if not immediately), provided everything is in order and no additional information or documents are required from you.

If the withdrawal request is received outside working hours, it will be processed the next working day. Our Funding Team works Monday to Friday: 08:00-21:00 (GMT+2/GMT+3 during Daylight Saving Time).

*Please note that although credit/debit card deposits are processed immediately, this does not mean that funds have already been received in our bank account as the bank clearing procedure usually takes a few days. However, we credit your funds immediately in order to be able to trade instantly and protect open positions. Unlike deposits, the withdrawal procedure does take longer. For more information please see:‘’How long should I wait for a withdrawal to reflect on my bank account?’’

‍

How long should I wait for a withdrawal to reflect on my bank account?

Withdrawal requests are usually processed by our Funding Team within one working day. However, the time needed for the funds to be transferred to your account will vary, depending on your payment method.

The below time frames are purely indicative:

International Bank Wire withdrawals may take 3-5 working days.

SEPA and local bank transfers may take up to 2 working days.

Card withdrawals may take 2-7 working days; however, in some cases they can take as long as 10 working days*.

E-wallet withdrawals may take anything from 10 minutes to a few hours to reflect on your wallet.

All other withdrawal methods are usually received within 1 working day.

*It is important to note that there are payment processors that may take up to 15 working days for the card refund to reflect on your bank account (depending on your country of residence).

You will be notified via email once the processing of your withdrawal request has been completed by our Funding team. Alternatively, you can check the status of your withdrawal on your dashboard under the Fund section.

‍

What is the minimum withdrawal amount?

Except for bank wire withdrawals, The Raptor Market does not require a minimum withdrawal amount. However, it should be noted that withdrawals that are below 2EUR cannot be processed as the requested withdrawal amount is lower than the fees The Raptor Market incurs for processing such withdrawals.

That being said, please note that a 10 EUR fee will apply to any bank wire withdrawals below or equal to 100 EUR.
If you need further clarification, please contact our Support Team via opening a ticket in the Helpdesk section of your Client Dashboard.

‍

How can I cancel a withdrawal?

If during the withdrawal process, you wish to return your money back to your The Raptor Market account, you have the option to cancel your withdrawal by contacting our customer support team. This is helpful, especially if making a withdrawal would cause you to have limited funds in your account and you still want to place certain trades or keep positions open.

Please inform our support team the soonest, as once the withdrawal is approved, it will not be possible to cancel the request.

‍

What is SWIFT and IBAN?

These terms relate to the Bank Wire payment option:

A SWIFT code – also known as a BIC – is made up of 8 characters and is used to identify a particular bank (e.g. HEBACY2N).

An IBAN stands for International Bank Account Number and helps banks identify your specific account for payments (e.g. of IBAN format: DE00 0000 0000 0000 0000 00) IBANs are not used in all countries. If you are requesting a withdrawal to a bank account which does not have an IBAN, you may put your account number in the IBAN field and your branch code in the Comments field on the withdrawal page.

Your SWIFT code and IBAN can usually be found on your bank statement or online banking portal.

Please note that we require IBAN and SWIFT code for all SEPA transfers; without these details we won’t be able to execute your withdrawal.

‍

How can I withdraw funds using the Bank Wire option?

It is a common practice that after the cancellation of a card, banks are obliged to allow limited transaction types to take place, including refunds, usually for at least 6 months. You should therefore withdraw funds to the card you used to deposit, even if this card has been cancelled. You will receive these funds to your new card which is connected to the same bank account as your previous, cancelled card.

If the bank account linked to the card is completely closed, you will need to send proof of account closure to our Support Team via opening a ticket in the Helpdesk section of your Client Dashboard. This document must clearly indicate the card number and state that the bank account link to it has been closed

‍

Do I need to provide any additional documents to withdraw funds from my account?

Before you can withdraw funds from your account, you need to ensure that your The Raptor Market account has been fully verified. In addition, you may be requested to provide additional documentation to verify the source of funds (depending on your deposit option) to ensure the withdrawal is credited to the same source where the funds have been received from. You will be contacted by our Support Team in case additional documents or information are required. However, we do suggest that you provide us with proof of payment document in advance, to ensure the smooth processing of your withdrawal request.

How can I withdraw funds if the card that I have used for deposit has been cancelled / replaced or has expired?

Before you can withdraw funds from your account, you need to ensure that your The Raptor Market account has been fully verified.

In order to withdraw your funds, you need to move the desired amount to be withdrawn from the trading account to the fiat account. Go to the ‘Funds’ Section in the dashboard and click on ‘Transfer’. Then select the wallets from/to and specify the amount.

You can then click on Withdraw and select the option you want to use in order to collect the funds.

‍

I have deposited using a virtual card (e.g. MBWAY, Multibanco or other). How can I withdraw?

You should withdraw back to the same card number that you have deposited from. In the majority of cases, virtual cards are refundable as they are linked with your actual credit/debit card. A virtual credit card number is a randomly-generated card number associated with your actual credit card. In case of a refund, the processing is identical, since transactions always have the underlying banking card associated with the Virtual Card (MB NET or other) and your account will be subsequently credited. You can always contact your card issuer and confirm this as well.

I have deposited using a virtual card (e.g. MBWAY, Multibanco or other). What additional documents are required from my side for deposit verification?

To verify the source of your deposits, please provide us with a screenshot of your virtual card and the (online) source account statement to which is the card connected to, showing the transaction/s made to The Raptor Market and your name.You can also send using the Helpdesk section in the Client Dashboard.

Why was my credit/debit card deposit declined?

There are a number of reasons why your Credit/Debit card may have been declined:

● Your transaction may have been rejected by your card’s issuing bank, please check with your bank;
● You may have gone over your daily transaction limit or exceeded the card’s available credit/debit;
● You may have entered an incorrect digit for the card number, expiry date or CVV code, please verify that these are correct;
● Your transaction may have been refused due to insufficient funds in your card.

You may not have provided the 3D verification code and/or did not complete the 3D Security steps for the transaction to be completed.

Finally, please check with your card issuer to ensure that your card has been authorized for online transactions and that there are not any protections in place that are preventing us from charging it.

If your transaction is rejected by your card issuer, then you should contact them to find out the exact reason.

If you, however; believe that your payment method is valid and everything is in order, please try redepositing again. You may also try depositing using a different card or a different payment method.

In case you do not manage to successfully deposit, please contact our Support Team via opening a ticket in the Helpdesk section of your Client Dashboard.

‍

Where is my deposit? Why is my deposit held/ pending?

Your deposit may be withheld for one of the following possible reasons:
● You did not submit your verification documents;
● Your documents have expired and updated documents are required;
● Your total deposits exceed 2,000 EUR and your account was not yet fully verified;
● You have duplicate profiles within The Raptor Market;
● You have failed to provide us with additional verification documents for your payment (such as card copies, source of payment screenshot, etc.)
● You have deposited using a relative’s or friend’s card / account and additional verification documents are required.

In case you are already trading with these funds, you have up to 10 days from the date of the deposit to provide us with the necessary documentation, otherwise your account will be suspended from trading (irrespective of whether there are open positions or not).

You will then need to complete an Appropriateness Test to ensure that you understand all the risks involved in trading derivative products and submit basic information on your Economic profile.

In order to have your account fully verified you will be required to send the below documentation:

Proof of identity

You can upload the documents through the The Raptor Market dashboard and upload them on our system. It is a very simple and straightforward process. We partner up with a third-party provider for automatic verifications of your documents, in order to have a quick and smooth onboarding experience.

To avoid any account limitations including, but not limited to, trading, withdrawal of funds and account closure, all clients should be verified as soon as possible.
