Lirunex South Africa — quick verdict
Lirunex has traded under Mauritius FSC regulation since 2016, offering four MT4/MT5 account types — from a no-commission Standard tier to a raw-spread Pro account for high-volume traders. It suits South African traders comfortable funding a USD-denominated offshore account (FSCA does not license Lirunex locally, so factor in SARB's foreign investment allowance) and who value account flexibility over a South African deposit currency. Trustpilot feedback on withdrawals is mixed — confirm current terms before depositing.
