“JustMarkets has zero deposit/withdrawal fees” is a line that shows up on nearly every broker-review aggregator site. It’s not exactly wrong, but it isn’t fully accurate the way many people interpret it either. This article works through each common misconception about fees and withdrawals at JustMarkets, one by one, and checks it against how things actually operate.
Myth 1: “Withdrawals at JustMarkets are completely free”
The truth: JustMarkets doesn’t charge a withdrawal processing fee on its side for most supported payment methods — this is a clearly published and accurate policy. However, “JustMarkets doesn’t charge a fee” doesn’t mean “you receive 100% of your requested withdrawal amount” in every case. The card-issuing bank, an intermediary e-wallet, or the receiving international bank can absolutely apply their own fees, especially with cross-border SWIFT transfers, where an intermediary bank commonly deducts a processing fee before the money reaches the destination account. That fee sits outside JustMarkets’ control but still directly affects the amount you actually receive.
Myth 2: “Withdrawals are always instant”
The truth: Withdrawal speed depends entirely on the method chosen, not a single fixed figure for every case. E-wallets and crypto are usually processed in under an hour — the fastest group. Bank transfers and card payments, by contrast, can take 1 to 3 business days to complete, depending on the intermediary bank. JustMarkets states it processes withdrawal requests the same business day if submitted during business hours, or rolls over to the next business day if submitted outside those hours or within an hour of the processing cutoff — this is the INTERNAL processing time, not counting the time for funds to actually arrive in your account via the relevant payment channel.
Myth 3: “You can withdraw any amount, with no limit”
The truth: JustMarkets applies both a minimum and a maximum limit. The minimum withdrawal starts around $10 depending on method, while the maximum per withdrawal transaction is set at $100,000. For most retail traders, this maximum is rarely a practical issue, but it’s still worth knowing if you’re managing a large-scale account or need to withdraw an unusually large amount in one go.
Myth 4: “You can withdraw to any bank account or wallet you want”
The truth: This is the most common misconception, and also the leading cause of rejected withdrawal requests. JustMarkets, like most seriously regulated brokers, applies anti-money-laundering (AML) rules requiring withdrawals to go back to the same method and account used to deposit — at minimum matching the amount deposited through that channel — before any additional profit can be withdrawn through a different channel. This isn’t a JustMarkets-specific inconvenience; it’s a compliance requirement applied industry-wide.
Myth 5: “The only cost of trading is the spread”
The truth: Depending on account type, two other cost categories can apply beyond the spread: a fixed commission (only on the Raw Spread account, charged per lot) and overnight swap fees (applying to most instruments if positions are held overnight, unless the account has swap-free enabled for a specific instrument like gold under specific conditions). Traders who only look at the spread and ignore these two costs often misjudge the real total cost of their strategy, especially with long-term holding strategies, where accumulated swap can far exceed the initial spread cost.
Myth 6: “JustMarkets hides fees in the currency-conversion rate”
The truth: This is a reasonable concern in principle — many international financial platforms genuinely do apply uncompetitive conversion rates as a form of hidden fee. However, there’s no specific evidence that JustMarkets applies this tactic more than is typical industry-wide. What a trader should do isn’t default to believing or disbelieving this, but actively compare the conversion rate shown at the time of deposit/withdrawal against a reference market rate (e.g., Google or XE.com) to judge the real gap for themselves, rather than relying on generic claims without specific figures.
Myth 7: “An inactive account loses money to a maintenance fee”
The truth: There’s no widely published evidence that JustMarkets charges an inactivity fee or a monthly account-maintenance fee the way some other brokers in the industry do. However, this policy can change over time and can differ by entity — always check the latest Terms & Conditions that apply directly to your own account rather than relying on aggregated information that may be outdated.
Myth 8: “A deposit bonus/promotion doesn’t affect withdrawals”
The truth: This is one of the costliest misconceptions if you don’t read the terms carefully. Deposit promotions or welcome bonuses at most forex brokers, including JustMarkets, typically come with a minimum trading-volume requirement before the bonus or any profit generated from it can be withdrawn. If you withdraw before meeting that volume condition, the bonus (and sometimes related profit) can be forfeited under the campaign’s terms. Always read a promotion’s specific terms carefully before joining, rather than assuming every bonus is as freely withdrawable as your original deposit.
Myth 9: “An Islamic/swap-free account is completely free of all costs”
The truth: A swap-free account removes only the overnight interest fee (swap) to comply with Islamic finance principles, but it doesn’t remove other costs like the spread or commission (if any) of the underlying account type. Some brokers — though there’s no specific evidence JustMarkets does this — compensate for waiving swap by slightly widening the spread on the swap-free version compared with the equivalent regular account. Traders interested in this account type should directly compare spreads between the regular and swap-free versions before activating it.
A note for traders withdrawing to Vietnam
For traders based in Vietnam, international bank transfer is usually the most accessible method due to limited access to certain international e-wallets. The receiving bank in Vietnam usually applies its own fee for receiving international transfers, on top of a possible deduction along the way through an intermediary SWIFT bank — the total fees on the Vietnam side should be confirmed directly with your own bank before estimating the actual amount you’ll receive, since this cost sits entirely outside JustMarkets’ control.

How do you find the exact fees that apply to your account? The most reliable way is to check the deposit/withdrawal section directly inside JustMarkets’ Personal Area — the system shows the exact fees and limits that apply specifically to your payment method and account region.
What should you do if a withdrawal request is rejected? The most common cause is incomplete KYC or a withdrawal method that doesn’t match the deposit method. Contacting support directly via live chat with your specific request ID is usually faster than submitting a new withdrawal request.
Summary table: fact vs. myth
- No withdrawal fee from JustMarkets — partly true (intermediary banks/wallets can still apply their own fees).
- Withdrawals are always instant — false (depends on method, from under an hour to a few days).
- No limit on withdrawal amount — false (there’s a specific minimum and maximum).
- Withdraw to any account you want — false (must match the deposit method under AML rules).
- The only cost is the spread — false (Raw Spread commission and overnight swap also apply).
Overall, JustMarkets‘ fee and withdrawal policy is competitive within the international forex industry, but “no direct fee charged” doesn’t mean “entirely free” once you account for intermediary factors (banks, e-wallets) and the indirect cost structure (commission, swap) depending on account type. Understanding these 9 misconceptions helps traders plan their cash flow more accurately instead of being caught off guard by unexpected fees.
