Access is checked separately for each product. Country and access conditions come first, then the source score determines the order. A high score does not establish eligibility.

How to choose a platform for residents of United States

Use your actual country of residence when reading the account conditions. Check the legal entity, client type and product named in each source. A working website or registration form does not establish permission for every account or product.

Compare the underlying instrument as well as the country. Brokerage shares and ETFs, tokenized exposure and CFDs do not grant the same ownership or account rights. Read the product and account description before using a platform's headline price as a comparison.

Access by product

Charles Schwab · Stocks

Accepts residents, conditions apply

Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. This route is for an individual adult brokerage account, available from age 18; teen and custodial accounts are separate products. The domestic brokerage guide asks for a Social Security number, driver licence, employment details and information on assets or cash to transfer. Complete the applicable identity checks and account-opening requirements. This route covers underlying stocks and ETFs. Options, margin, futures and forex require separate permissions; a brokerage account alone does not grant them.

Country access: common questions

How many platforms have confirmed access for residents of United States?

The current catalog records 33 confirmed or conditional provider decisions out of 63 tracked in this market. Account approval and the stated conditions still apply. Special accounts are separated in the list, and not every product at a confirmed provider is necessarily available.

Does an available trading account always mean direct ownership of shares?

No. Read whether the product is a brokerage share, an ETF, a tokenized exposure or a CFD, and which entity holds the account. Permission for one instrument or account type must not be transferred to another.

Does unconfirmed access mean a provider is prohibited?

No. There are 11 providers with an unknown country decision in this catalog. Research may exist while the applicable entity, account or product remains unresolved. “Check before applying” is also separate from confirmed access: it means no explicit restriction was found in the reviewed scope, without confirmation of account opening.

How we verify country access and source scores

All 254 countries and territories →
How we check and rate

We check the applicable general account admission and each product’s own terms, then apply actual country, entity and client-category exceptions. A country need not be named individually when covered by a general grant. Missing evidence is neither a ban nor an approval.

The score combines published ratings from CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, ForexBrokers.com, StockBrokers.com and BrokerChooser with equal weight per publisher. It is not our own safety assessment and doesn't affect who is listed.
