Eightcap’s UK entity, Eightcap Group Ltd (Companies House 12448314, registered office 40 Gracechurch Street, London), is the firm the FCA’s clone warning of 2 January 2024 names as the genuine authorised firm under Firm Reference Number 921296. That page was read on 19 September 2026; the FS Register itself was not, so confirm 921296 there before opening an account.
Is Eightcap FCA regulated? What the two records say
The Companies House entry for 12448314, read on 19 September 2026, gives Eightcap Group Ltd as Active, incorporated on 7 February 2020, accounts filed to 30 June 2025, confirmation statement dated 1 September 2026.
The regulatory half is a warning notice. The FCA’s warning about Eightcap VIP, published 2 January 2024, names the genuine firm being cloned by eightcap.vip: Eightcap Group Ltd, FRN 921296, 40 Gracechurch Street, website eightcap.com/en-uk/traders/. Name, number and address match Companies House exactly. As this desk has said before, a warning is not the Register.
Which Eightcap entity would a UK reader contract with?
On 19 September 2026 the firm’s site did not serve this desk a UK page. Requests for eightcap.com/uk/ and for /en-uk/traders/, the address the FCA lists, both landed on the Bangladesh page, /bn/traders/. Its footer names three companies, with the firm’s own “regulated by” lines: Eightcap Global Limited (Securities Commission of The Bahamas, SIA-F220), Eightcap International Ltd (Seychelles FSA, SD100) and Eightcap International Trading (Mauritius FSC, GB25204603). The legal-documents page, also routed to /bn/, adds CLMarkets Limited of St Vincent. None was checked against the regulator it names.
Neither page names Eightcap Group Ltd, the FRN or the FSCS: a statement about two pages served to one desk on one day, not about what a UK visitor sees, and the firm was not asked to comment. As with Exness and Vantage, the counterparty is whichever company the account terms name.
Is Eightcap covered by the FSCS?
The scheme answers for an authorised firm’s failure, for eligible claimants, up to a limit, never for a losing trade; whether an Eightcap client would be eligible, no document read here says. The FSCS investments page, read on 19 September 2026, gives up to 85,000 pounds per eligible person, per firm, where the firm failed after 1 April 2019. The 120,000 pounds in one review site’s snippet is the deposit limit rising from December 2025, per the same site’s navigation.

Bottom line
Eightcap in the UK is Eightcap Group Ltd: one company, one number, four offshore namesakes. The record is clean; the Register entry remains the reader’s search to run.
The customary footing: FX and CFDs carry substantial risk of loss, most retail accounts lose money on them, a warning notice is not the Register, and nothing above is advice.
