Why did you change your name?
We’ve become one of the fastest-growing forex brokers in the US1. Along the way, we’ve found that our traders require a custom-made experience committed to forex. So, we’re aligning with the product you trust us to provide—forex—and that starts with our name.

tastyfx will be a forex-focused, US-specific source of forex trading and entertainment. Our core technology and pricing will not change, but you will continue to have access to a top-tier forex trading experience.

We will be sending out communications from our new email domain from now on.
Mobile App: Our award-winning app2 will now be rebranded to tastyfx, but the core experience and your account information will not change.

However, if you haven't yet downloaded the app, you can easily find it available for download on both the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store to take advantage of the convenience and features it offers.
What has not changed?
The forex trading platform you know and trust is not changing. Once you log into your account, you’ll find yourself in the familiar surroundings of the IG platform—a testament to our commitment to consistency and reliability in your trading experience—with our new tastyfx look. Despite the enhancements you’ll see on our site, our core platform remains unchanged in its foundation.
