The account currency is MYR, USD, EUR or GBP. You choose it at your first deposit and it is locked after that. If you pay in a currency other than the account's, IQ Option charges a 4% conversion fee, so choose MYR when you pay from a Malaysian bank.

Can I change the account currency?

No, it stays locked after the first deposit. See the account currency rules.

† The first withdrawal of each calendar month is free on every method. After that the commission is 2%, up to RM125.

There is no Bitcoin withdrawal. DuitNow QR, Apple Pay and Google Pay are for deposits only.

IQ Option approves withdrawals within up to 3 business days, and the method time above starts after that. Don't count on a fixed total.

Rule: withdraw to the same method you deposited with where possible, and always to an account in your own name

To withdraw to a bank, deposit from that bank: the money goes back to your own Malaysian bank account. Crypto goes back to a wallet, and Volet to the same Volet. Card refunds come first, capped at your card deposits of the last 180 days, and the rest goes to another method. A withdrawal to a third-party account is refused.

If a card refund has not arrived after 21 days, send a stamped bank statement to docs@iqoption.com.

Verify your account before your first withdrawal

You can deposit and trade before you verify, but IQ Option pays out nothing until the account is verified. Send the documents early, so the check is already behind you when you want to withdraw.

Document What to send Requirements
Proof of identityPassport photo page, MyKad, driving licence or residence permitValid. Shows your full name, photo, date of birth, expiry date and document number.

Checking usually takes up to 3 business days. If IQ Option asks for documents, send them within 7 days. After 14 days without them, the account can be closed.

The full steps are in how to verify your account.

Common reasons for rejection

  • Blurred or cropped photo. Retake it in good light so every line of text is readable.
  • Not all four corners visible. Lay the document flat and keep all four corners in the frame.
  • Expired document. Send one that is still valid.
  • Address document older than 3 months. Send a bill or statement dated within the last 3 months.
  • Name different from your account or bank. Use documents that show the same name as your IQ Option account and your bank.

How to withdraw from IQ Option

  1. Log in to your IQ Option account.
  2. Open "Withdraw funds".
  3. Choose the withdrawal method.
  4. Enter the amount.
  5. Confirm the request.

Approval takes up to 3 business days. After that, the method time in the table above starts.

Check this before you withdraw

Each item you can't tick is a likely reason for a refusal or a delay.

Pre-withdrawal checklist

0 of 6 ticked. Tick them all before you request a withdrawal.

Withdrawal delayed or rejected: causes and fixes

The account is not verified

You can't withdraw before verification.

Fix: verify the account first. See the verification steps.

The name does not match

The bank, card or wallet is not in your name, or the name you entered does not match your online banking.

Fix: withdraw only to an account in your own name. For Help2Pay deposits, type your full name exactly as in your online banking.

A bonus is still active

You can't withdraw until the wagering is done.

Fix: finish the wagering of 40 times the bonus, or cancel the bonus and lose the profit made with it. See cancel a bonus.

The amount is below the minimum

The app refuses a request under the minimum.

Fix: withdraw at least RM10 by card or Volet, or RM50 by bank or crypto.

The card amount is above your card deposits

A card withdrawal is capped at what you deposited by card in the last 180 days.

Fix: take the card part by card and send the rest to another method, in your own name.

The card refund has not appeared after 21 days

IQ Option sends a card refund at once, but your bank can take up to 21 days to show it.

Fix: if it still has not arrived after 21 days, send a stamped bank statement to docs@iqoption.com.

A fair-usage penalty

Depositing and withdrawing 50% or more without real trading can bring a penalty of up to 5% and account suspension.

Fix: trade for real and don't use the account only to move money. If you have a penalty, ask support.

Touch 'n Go, Boost, GrabPay and PayPal

Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, GrabPay, FPX and PayPal are not in the method list on a MYR account (checked 4 October 2026). Use a method in the tables above.

Don't let anyone top up your account for you People who offer to top up your IQ Option account through their own e-wallet are making a third-party payment. IQ Option bans it, and it is a common scam route. You can lose the money and the account.

Start with the free demo

Open the $10,000 demo account first, or make your first deposit when you are ready. Deposit only money you can afford to lose: trading options and CFDs is high risk and you can lose all the money you deposit.

What is the IQ Option minimum deposit in Malaysia?

The minimum is RM42 by card (Visa or Mastercard), Apple Pay, Google Pay or Volet, RM50 by a Malaysian bank through Help2Pay, RM100 by DuitNow QR and $10 equivalent by crypto. These are the amounts shown on a MYR account on 4 October 2026.

What is the minimum withdrawal?

RM10 by card or Volet, and RM50 by Maybank, CIMB Bank, Hong Leong Bank, Public Bank, RHB Bank, AmBank or crypto.

How long does an IQ Option withdrawal take in Malaysia?

IQ Option approves a withdrawal within up to 3 business days. After that, the app shows 1 to 24 hours for Maybank, CIMB Bank, Hong Leong Bank, Public Bank, RHB Bank, Volet and crypto, and 1 to 24 business days for AmBank. A card refund is instant on IQ Option's side, but your bank can take up to 21 days to show it. Don't count on a fixed total time.

Can I deposit with Maybank or CIMB?

Yes. Maybank and CIMB Bank are in the bank list with Hong Leong Bank, Public Bank, RHB Bank and AmBank, through Help2Pay. The minimum is RM50, the maximum is RM50,000 per deposit and the money arrives in 1 to 5 minutes. Enter your full name exactly as it appears in your online banking.

How do I deposit with DuitNow QR?

Open Deposit and choose DuitNow QR. Enter the amount from RM100, then your first name, surname and a phone number that starts with 60 (11 to 12 digits). Pay the QR code and tap "I have paid". The money arrives in 1 to 2 minutes. Each QR works once, so make a new one for every payment.

Is there a withdrawal fee?

The first withdrawal each calendar month is free. After that the commission is 2%, up to RM125 on a MYR account. IQ Option charges nothing for deposits. Other costs are 5% for an expedited withdrawal, a flat $31 for a bank wire and 4% for currency conversion.

Can I use Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost or PayPal?

No. Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, GrabPay, FPX and PayPal are not in the method list on a MYR account (checked 4 October 2026). Anyone who offers to top up your account through their own e-wallet is making a third-party payment, which IQ Option bans, and it is a common scam route.

Why is my withdrawal delayed or rejected?

The usual causes are an unverified account, a name that does not match, an active bonus, an amount below the minimum, a card withdrawal above your card deposits of the last 180 days and the fair-usage rule. IQ Option also takes up to 3 business days to approve a withdrawal before the method time starts.

Can I withdraw while a bonus is active?

No, not until you finish the wagering of 40 times the bonus, unless you cancel the bonus. Cancelling removes the bonus and the profit made with it.

Can I change my account currency to MYR later?

No. The account currency is locked after the first deposit, and a payment in a different currency carries a 4% conversion fee. You can have one account only, so a second account in MYR is not an option.
