Steps to register your account in ADX:

To start trading in the UAE market, you need to be over 18 years old so we can register you with ADX.

Note: Registration usually takes 1 working day to be completed.

All documents must be captured live within the Thndr app. Screenshots, scans, or photos of photos will not be accepted.

Note: All documents must be valid and all text must be clearly legible. Ensure documents are well-lit when capturing them in the app.

To complete your account opening without delays, please note that your personal mobile number will need to be verified.

Note: A bank IBAN for dividends is required as a separate step after your account is approved, before you can start trading on ADX. See the article on how to upload your IBAN statement for details.
