# Axi API options Independent and unofficial. Not affiliated with or endorsed by any broker or platform named here. Educational only: nothing here is advice, and nothing here recommends a broker or a trade. This is the markdown version of https://openbrokerapi.com/brokers/axi, written from the same records as that page. 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. Spread bets and CFDs on MT4, MT5 and the Axi Trading Platform. Axi is a trading name of Axi Financial Services (UK) Limited, per the regulatory disclosure on Axi's own UK site. - Kind: Platform APIs only - Newest reading: 2026-10-12 - Official documentation: [axi.com](https://www.axi.com/uk) - Everything recorded for Axi, as one JSON file: https://openbrokerapi.com/data/brokers/axi.json ## Access, authentication and streaming - How you get a key: Platform access only, on the pages opened.
