I'm trying to create an account but I'm getting an error — why is that?

Common reasons why account registration may fail at Axi, including duplicate accounts, country restrictions, age requirements, identity verification errors, and technical issues.
Updated 4 days ago

If you are unable to complete registration, one of the following is likely the cause. 

1. You already have an Axi account 

Axi allows one verified profile per person. If you are seeing a duplicate account error, or a message saying this email address is already registered, you already have an account. You do not need to create a new one. 

Log in to the Client Portal using your registered email. Not sure which email you used? Check your inbox and junk folder for any previous emails from @axi.com.

2. You have reached the maximum number of trading accounts 

Verified clients can hold a maximum of 5 trading accounts under one profile. If you have reached this limit, you cannot open additional accounts. For more information see: How many trading accounts can I have?

3. Your country is not supported 

If your country does not appear in the country list during registration, Axi is unable to onboard clients from that region. This is a hard restriction and cannot be overridden. 

4. You do not meet the minimum age requirement 

You must be 18 or older to open an Axi account. This applies globally with no exceptions. 

5. Your identity verification was rejected 

Axi uses an automated verification system to validate your identity documents. Your submission may be rejected if: 

  • Your ID is expired 

  • The document is not fully visible or is blurry 

  • The document type is not accepted in your country — each country has specific accepted document types, displayed on screen during the verification step. Ensure you upload one of the listed documents, otherwise your submission will be rejected 

If your submission is rejected, you will be notified with the reason. Resubmit with a valid, in-date document ensuring all details are clearly visible. 

6. Technical issue during registration 

If you are experiencing an error that does not relate to the above, try the following before contacting support: 

  • Clear your browser cache and cookies and try again 

  • Use incognito or private browsing mode 

  • Try a different browser or device 

Still unable to register? .

Contact Client Services via the Help Center with details of the error you are seeing.
