Troubleshooting SMS Verification Code Issues

Updated yesterday

If you're unable to receive SMS verification codes for your FXTRADING.com account, this may be due to regulatory restrictions that prevent SMS delivery to specific regions. This article explains the key factors and provides alternative solutions.

Understanding Regulatory Restrictions on SMS Delivery

FXTRADING.com complies with international regulations and geo-permissions, which may limit SMS delivery to certain regions. As part of these compliance requirements:

  • Phone numbers with specific country codes may be unable to receive SMS verification codes

  • These restrictions are in place due to regulatory compliance requirements and geo-regulatory constraints

  • SMS delivery limitations help ensure adherence to international financial regulations

Known Affected Regions

Currently, users with phone numbers from certain regulated regions cannot use SMS-based verification. Specific examples include:

  • Syria (Country Code +963): SMS delivery to this region is blocked to adhere to regulatory guidelines

  • Other regions may also be affected based on evolving international compliance requirements

Note: The list of affected regions may change based on regulatory updates and international compliance standards.
