Halal Guard
Swap-free account Review the conditions ▾
Removing overnight swap addresses one possible riba concern, but does not by itself establish that the full transaction is Sharia-compliant. Ownership, possession, contract structure (CFD or real asset) and leverage still need review, and the broker may replace swap with an equivalent administration fee.
Basis: Islamic-finance principles: riba, ownership, possession (qabd)
Administrative fees Read the swap-free terms ▾
Some brokers charge a flat holding fee on swap-free accounts. A transparent, cost-based fee may be acceptable; a fee scaled to position size/time can mimic interest.
Basis: Contract transparency (gharar) considerations
⚠️ ShaFX provides educational and screening information based on published Islamic-finance principles and available product information. It does not issue personal fatwas or guarantee that every account, instrument, broker, or transaction is Sharia-compliant. Contract structures and individual circumstances can differ. Users seeking a definitive personal ruling should consult a qualified scholar specializing in Islamic finance. Learn more →
