How we tested Nova Securities Ltd
This review is based on direct testing. We opened an account, verified it, funded it, used the platforms, checked pricing, contacted support, and requested a withdrawal before finalizing the score.
Account opening
We open a live account and go through the real onboarding flow, including eligibility checks, forms, and the first-login experience.
Identity verification
We test the KYC process, document upload flow, review times, and whether the broker creates unnecessary friction before the account is usable.
Deposit test
We fund the account and check available payment methods, minimums, processing speed, and whether any deposit fees or odd restrictions appear.
Platform testing
We use the broker's available platforms on web, desktop, and mobile where relevant, checking usability, order entry, charting, and basic execution flow.
Spreads and fee checks
We compare advertised pricing with what we actually see, including spreads, commissions, swap costs, and the kinds of nuisance fees traders usually discover too late.
Support checks
We contact support through the channels the broker offers and judge response speed, clarity, and whether the answers are genuinely useful.
Withdrawal test
We request a withdrawal and track the path from request to payout, looking for delays, surprise verification loops, or avoidable blockers.
Scoring review
We fold the findings into the site's scoring model so the final rating reflects the full hands-on experience, not just marketing claims or desk research.
Evidence labels
How to read the evidence in our Nova Securities Ltd review
This review mixes hands-on testing, broker documentation, third-party records, and visible unknowns. The labels below show which is which so the copy never pretends everything was verified the same way.
Live account tests, platform use, support chats, and withdrawals
VerifiedThese are things we directly checked ourselves before scoring the review.
Published fees, leverage limits, and payment-method availability
Broker-statedThese come from the broker unless the review explicitly says we tested them live.
Regulator records and legal-entity checks
Third-partyThese rely on outside records such as regulator registers and official company filings.
Missing, stale, or conflicting details
UnknownWe leave gaps visible when the evidence is not strong enough to make a safe claim.
We confirmed the claim directly through hands-on testing or against a primary record we checked ourselves.
Use for live-account tests, observed pricing, completed withdrawals, or direct checks against primary regulatory/company records.
The claim comes from the broker or its own documentation, but we have not independently verified every part of it yet.
Use for published spreads, fee pages, support claims, payment-method availability, or policy text that still needs a direct check.
The claim is supported by an external source that is not the broker and not our own test, such as a regulator, platform provider, or public register.
Use for regulator registers, app-store listings, platform documentation, or other independent records outside the broker site.
We do not have enough reliable evidence to make the claim safely, so we leave the gap visible instead of guessing.
Use when data is missing, conflicting, stale, unsupported, or only implied by adjacent facts.

Nova Securities Ltd Overview
This page needed a hard reset.
The reviewed official sources do not support the old MT4/MT5, ECN, leverage, and payment-method scaffold. What they do support is a much narrower and more credible picture: Nova Securities Ltd is a CySEC-regulated Cyprus investment firm presenting itself as a financial-services boutique for institutional clients and high-net-worth individuals.
What We Verified
From Nova’s official site and the CySEC register, I verified:
- Current legal name: Nova Securities Ltd
- CySEC licence: 413/22
- CySEC licence date: 10/10/2022
- Company registration number: HE 415244
- Head office location shown on the site: Steliou Masini 2, Office 102, Dali, 2548, Nicosia, Cyprus
- Telephone shown on the site: +357 22 820 060
- Contact email in the CySEC register: info@nova-securities.com
- Former names listed by CySEC: Bannxso Ltd and XF Services Ltd
That former-name trail matters. It is not automatically a red flag, but it is absolutely something a prospective client should check before sending money.
Services Listed on Official Pages
Nova’s regulation page says the firm is licensed to provide:
- reception and transmission of orders
- execution of orders on behalf of clients
It also lists ancillary services including:
- safekeeping and administration of financial instruments, including custodianship
- foreign-exchange services connected to the licensed investment services
- granting credits or loans connected to one or more financial-instrument transactions
The homepage also describes custody services such as portfolio statements, safekeeping of securities, dividend and coupon handling, and corporate-action notifications.
That is a real services profile. It is just not the same thing as a public retail CFD comparison page.
Regulation and Safety
The regulatory backbone here is clear enough:
- Nova’s own regulation page states it is regulated by CySEC under licence 413/22.
- The CySEC register independently confirms the same licence number and company registration number.
- The regulation page links a solid set of compliance documents including Risk Disclosure Notice, Investor Compensation Fund Policy, Best Execution Policy, Complaints Policy, Safeguarding of Client Assets, and Pillar III disclosures.
That is a stronger signal than generic marketing copy.
What We Could Not Verify Publicly
The reviewed official pages did not clearly publish:
- minimum deposit
- spread table
- leverage limits
- named trading platforms
- payment methods
- public fee schedule
So those fields were stripped back instead of padded with fake certainty.
Verdict
Nova Securities Ltd looks, from the reviewed official material, like a regulated Cyprus investment firm with execution and custody capabilities, not a simple retail broker template fit.
The strongest verified points are the CySEC licence 413/22, the clearly listed licensed services, and the published compliance-document set. The main weakness is public commercial transparency: the official pages reviewed did not give enough detail on pricing, platforms, or funding to support standard retail-broker comparison fields.
That makes this more of a verified firm profile than a classic spread-and-platform review.
