The checkout checklist

Ten lines to confirm on the firm’s site the day you pay. None of them are optional because a guide mentioned them last month.

A comparison record is a dated reading of a page. Your card statement is a new event. Run this list on the firm’s site, not on a recap.

The programme name matches the record, including the step count and the size.
The daily loss, the maximum loss, and whether the floor is static, end-of-day trailing, or intraday.
Whether a best-day rule applies, and the denominator.
Minimum days, if any, and what counts as a day.
News, weekend, and overnight, in the evaluation and after a pass. They are often different.
Expert advisors, copiers, and hedging, including hedging across your own accounts.
The price, the currency, the reset, the activation, and any subscription.
Whether your country is on the allowed or the prohibited list.
The legal name on the checkout, and whether it matches the brand.
The refund trigger, if one is printed. A banner that says refundable is not the trigger.
