As someone who has evaluated a range of brokers over the years, I found that FFG Securities structures its offerings into two primary account experiences rather than a suite of customizable account types. In my review, I noticed the core distinction lies in how investors interact with the platform—either via face-to-face/hybrid service or through online-only accounts. For me, the key difference is cost structure. Face-to-face or hybrid accounts benefit from personal guidance, but come with noticeably higher transaction fees. For example, domestic stock trades incur a minimum commission of ¥2,750 in-person, compared to just ¥275 for online-only trading after a significant digital discount. As an active trader conscious of costs, this makes the online-only approach far more economical if I’m comfortable managing everything myself. However, it’s important to highlight that online-only account holders are responsible for their own deposit transfer fees—unlike hybrid clients, for whom FFG absorbs this cost. The other point that stands out for me is that FFG Securities does not offer demo or Islamic accounts, and the account opening process itself is not fully digitalized, which could complicate things for non-local or international traders. As someone who values efficient onboarding, this feels limiting. Ultimately, FFG’s "accounts" mainly differ in their servicing method and fee structure, rather than in the typical tiered features I’ve seen with other brokers. Personally, if fee minimization and online independence are my priorities, the online-only option is most appealing—though I’d proceed with caution and be certain I’m comfortable with the bank transfer logistics and absence of support for platforms like MT4/MT5.
