Who is Profimax?
On the surface, Profimax looks like an ordinary forex and crypto broker. Its public site is presented at https://profimax.pro/. But surface impressions are exactly what these operations rely on — the substance behind Profimax is where the problems begin.
Is Profimax regulated?
We could find no evidence that Profimax holds a valid licence from any recognised financial regulator. Trading client funds without authorisation is one of the strongest indicators of a scam — there is no regulator to complain to, and no protection for your money.
Red flags we identified
- Unrealistic profit claims and pressure to deposit more
- No credible physical address or verifiable corporate record
- Offshore or shell-company registration used to avoid oversight
- Aggressive “account managers” coaching clients to deposit
- Withdrawals reportedly blocked behind “taxes,” “fees” or account “upgrades”
Our analysis
On Nov 4, 2025, the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) issued a warning against Profimax for the lack of the required authorization. https://www.bafin.de/SharedDocs/Veroeffentlichungen/EN/Verbrauchermitteilung/unerlaubte/2025/neu/meldung_2025_10_29_profimax_pro_en.html?cms_expanded=false
