Registration
Signing up was quick and easy.  The whole process took me about 1 minute from the second I clicked the register button until I completed the form.

Security
Optimarkets is big on security. They are protected by a 256-bit Secure Sockets Layer encryption. This means they are in line with standard industry norms and practices and this was seen very clearly when I received a phone verification call from their staff double-checking my ID. I felt totally safe and started executing trades immediately.

Ease of Use
This broker has definitely made it easy for traders to get around. The platform is extremely user-friendly and highly intuitive. You don’t need to have years of experience trading in order to get started and take positions.

Customer Support
The service was immaculate and probably one of the most professional & responsive I have yet to encounter. I asked about the various bonuses and Erica was kind enough to walk me through the benefit plans and various depositing options available.

VIPs
The VIP program starts kicking in when you make a  $/€/£ 1,000 deposit. After that it’s a different ball game altogether. Simply put, you get whatever you want any time (almost). I personally inquired about a trading demo with the chief analyst and I had him on the phone in a matter of minutes.

Platform
The platform is powered by Tradologic, a veteran of the binary options industry and considered by many to offer a top tier trading arena. It is usually most acknowledged for it’s simplicity, speed, and ease-of-use that are probably the most important at the end of the day.

Banking
For depositing, Optimarkets accepts all major credit cards including Visa, Mastercard/Eurocard, American Express (Amex), Diners Club, and JCB. Also accepted are debit cards, prepaid, and Visa Electron.
E-wallets: Moneybookers (Skrill), Netteller and Liberty Reserve are in the process of being integrated but for the time being no alternative payment solutions are offered.
Wire/Bank Transfers: This is the way money is usually withdrawn or cashed out. Once all the details are provided the money is sent immediately. Optimarkets has a lightning-fast cashing out policy.

* Recently there have been complaints about withdrawals, please make sure to ask about the withdrawal policies before investing.

Summary
All together Optimarkets seems like they have done a wonderful job of putting everything together. This broker accepts US traders and understands what clients are looking for and provides them with a fantastic trading environment and a rich asset index. There are two issues that I would consider before investing, the first has to do with the fact that the platform is only available in English, (and so is the support), and the second has to do with the fact that they need to have more depositing options available in the form of E-wallets. Other than that they offer a great product and outstanding customer service. Overall score is 9.4/10.
