Axi refreshes its brand identity with the launch of a new website. August 24, 2026 SYDNEY, Aug. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Axi, a global online trading broker, today announces the launch of its refreshed brand identity, including a new website with a fully updated visual system designed to reflect the broker's position as a dedicated partner to traders across every market. The refresh marks an evolution of Axi's identity, not a departure from it. The logo retains its recognised form, and the brand's signature red remains central to the new visual language. What has changed is the precision and cohesion with which every element comes together. The new visual system introduces refined typography, a sharper and more modern design language, and a globally scalable character system that reflects the diversity of the markets and communities Axi serves. The updated website is the clearest expression of the new brand in action. The refresh will extend across Axi's full product ecosystem. The Axi app and client portal will carry the updated visual identity, giving traders a consistent brand experience across every platform they use. "A lot changed with this refresh, and that was intentional.", said Julie Sharova, Global Head of Marketing at Axi, "But our DNA stays - the logo, the elements that make us us. It was about making sure our DNA speaks to more people, in more places. We wanted to feel modern and relatable across different audiences - because we believe you can be globally consistent and locally connected at the same time." Axi operates across multiple regions globally, serving retail and professional traders with access to forex, stocks, indices, and commodities. The brand refresh reflects the broker's continued investment in the trader experience, across every touchpoint, in every market.

Axi becomes DP World Tour's first online trading partner. Thu, 30th Jul 2026 (Today) Axi has been named the Official Online Trading Partner of the DP World Tour, becoming the first online trading company to partner with a professional golf tour. The agreement gives the trading provider a presence at selected DP World Tour events and across the tour's digital channels during the season. It forms part of Axi's broader international sponsorship strategy as it seeks to raise its profile in key markets. The deal links a retail trading brand with one of golf's global competitions at a time when brokers are increasingly turning to sport to reach potential customers. For Axi, the partnership offers exposure to the tour's international audience as competition in online trading remains intense. Axi provides trading services in foreign exchange, indices, commodities and digital assets, and says it serves clients in more than 100 countries. It operates under the Axi brand across multiple entities within the group. The arrangement will also include Fantasy DP World Tour Powered by Axi. Financial terms were not disclosed. Sponsorship push Sports partnerships have become a common marketing route for trading and financial services brands seeking broader name recognition. Golf, with its international schedule and affluent audience, has attracted interest from companies targeting investors and higher-income consumers. Rajesh Yohannan, Chief Executive Officer at Axi, said the company saw a close fit between the sport and trading. "Golf and trading share the same DNA: success comes down to preparation, discipline, and the fine margins that separate good from great. That's what Axi's Edge is all about. Partnering with the DP World Tour - a truly global Tour with a truly global audience - allows us to tell that story on one of the biggest stages in sport. We're proud to be the first online trading company to partner with a professional golf tour, and we can't wait to bring fans and our clients closer to the game through innovations like Fantasy DP World Tour Powered by Axi," said Rajesh Yohannan, Chief Executive Officer at Axi. The DP World Tour said the tie-up gives Axi access to an audience it sees as attractive for its marketing efforts. It also highlighted the geographic spread of its events and spectators. "Axi are a global platform with big ambition, and we're delighted that they have chosen the DP World Tour for their first partnership in golf. Our audience is affluent, financially savvy and come from all four corners of the globe-giving Axi the perfect marketing platform to build from. Together, we will create compelling multi-channel brand campaigns and networking opportunities that elevate their presence in priority markets as we travel around the world each season," said Guy Kinnings, Chief Executive Officer at the DP World Tour. The partnership adds to a broader trend of financial trading brands using sport to build visibility beyond traditional advertising. Similar deals have appeared across football, motor racing and other global sports as firms seek new routes to retail audiences. For the DP World Tour, the agreement brings in a partner from a category not previously attached to a professional golf tour in this way. For Axi, it marks a further step into sports marketing as it expands its international brand activity. Axi said it combines trading technology, education and partnership initiatives as part of its offering to clients worldwide. It says it supports traders in more than 100 countries.
Axi acquires license from the Financial Services Commission of Mauritius, opening up the world's fastest-growing markets to regulated trading. Jun 17, 2026, 16:35 ET Axi has obtained a license issued by the Financial Services Commission of Mauritius, which allows it to expand its regulated trading platform to high-growth markets and offer more traders access to a globally recognized broker. SYDNEY, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Axi, a global broker specializing in online trading of currencies and contracts for difference, has been granted a license by the Financial Services Commission of Mauritius.

For traders, this means they benefit from the same accountability framework that governs any regulated entity of Axi. This license builds on more than 18 years of experience in over 100 countries, and on Axi's belief that regulation is not just a box to check, but the foundation on which every trader should be able to rely before committing their capital. "Acquiring our license in Mauritius is an important milestone for Axi's growth, as well as for traders who will be able to access our platform through this reliable regulatory framework. As we continue our international expansion, adherence to rigorous regulatory standards remains at the core of how we operate.

Axi launches Trading Triumphs: the stories behind the traders who earned their Axi Select funding. Jun 02, 2026, 07:11 ET SYDNEY, June 2, 2026 /CNW/ - Most funded trading programmes focus on outcomes. Trading Triumphs focuses on the people behind them. Axi today announces the launch of Trading Triumphs, a content series from Axi Select dedicated to the real stories of traders who have earned their funding through discipline, process and persistence. Trading Triumphs sits alongside The Strategy Room by Axi Select hosted by renowned FX strategist Kathy Lien of BK Forex as part of Axi's commitment to content that serves traders. Where The Strategy Room asks how traders approach markets, Trading Triumphs asks who they are and what it cost them to get here. The series features traders from around the world who have progressed through Axi Select and earned access to funded capital through consistent performance, disciplined risk management and long-term commitment to their process. Each story combines a long-form written profile, original video content and supporting social media assets. Greg Rubin, Head of Axi Select at Axi, said: "Behind every funding milestone is a story that rarely gets told. People see the outcome, the capital, the payouts, the success. What they don't see are the years of learning, discipline, setbacks and persistence that came before it. Trading Triumphs gives our traders the opportunity to tell those stories in their own words. It reflects what Axi Select is designed to do: support talented traders, help them develop their skills, and provide opportunities for growth based on performance." The first story features Yoleny.G, a mother who built her trading career around family life. Through discipline, consistency and long-term commitment to her process, she progressed through Axi Select to reach Pro M the programme's highest funding tier and achieved the goal that had driven her from the beginning: buying a home for her family. Future editions will feature traders from different countries, professions and backgrounds - from parents balancing trading with family life to entrepreneurs, professionals and self-taught market participants. The series launches with Yoleny's story. Read and Watch Axi is a global online FX and CFD trading brand with thousands of clients in 100+ countries.
