Pepperstone is the usual second name next to IC Markets when someone wants raw-style pricing and cTrader, not only MetaTrader. Licensed entities exist in more than one country — the form wins, not the ad.
Minimums are advertised low on some entities and higher on others; read the live page. Commission on raw still has to be added to the spread. If you do not need cTrader, this is still a shortlist name, not a requirement.
Snapshot (confirm live)
Typical cost: raw-style + commission. Min. deposit: often cited $0–$200*. Regulation: ASIC / FCA / CySEC (entities vary). Platforms: MT4 / MT5 / cTrader. Withdrawals: bank and cards on licensed entities; check the client portal.
What we can actually check
- Which licensed entity is on the application.
- Whether cTrader and MetaTrader use the same gold contract spec.
- Round-turn: spread plus commission on the raw path.
- A small live clip and a withdrawal before you scale.

What we skip
Unverifiable volume and “best raw broker” slogans. Entity coverage is country-by-country.
Next: how to choose a broker, verify a licence, spread vs commission, the reviews hub, and the risk disclaimer.
This note sits in the ten-desk research index so each broker has a URL Google can crawl on its own. Use that index to pick a second name, then compare on the same account type.
