Pepperstone API: questions and answers
5 questions about the Pepperstone API, each answered from the Pepperstone record on this site and nothing else. 3 of the answers rest on a record labelled unverified.
Risk warning: CFDs and spread bets are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. You can lose money on these products, and each provider publishes its own loss figure under FCA rules. You should consider whether you understand how they work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Automated and API trading can amplify losses through bugs, connectivity failures and runaway orders.
An answer here is the record's own wording, cut at the end of a sentence, or a list of names read from records. An answer that opens with the word Unverified has no dated source behind it. Where this page and the provider's own documentation differ, the documentation wins. Nothing here recommends a broker.

How do I authenticate with the Pepperstone API?
Unverified beyond one phrase. Pepperstone's API trading page, re-read 12 Oct 2026, says only that the Standard API uses an API key generated after approval. It names no header, signature or token lifetime, and nothing at all for the FIX route.
