Progress Timeline
Activity Summary
E8 Markets does not offer its funded-trader programme in Syria. In September 2026 it said the restriction is not solely regulatory: its payout and verification partners impose their own geographic limits, naming RiseWorks as one, and it would support Syria once those partners allow it.
Community Updates
Note
In a follow-up message the same day, E8 Markets named RiseWorks, its payout provider, as a concrete example of a partner that restricts Syria, and linked to that provider's supported-countries page. It said it would support Syria once it is able to do so fully.
The entries that follow are part of one exchange.
Declined
E8 Markets replied that the restriction is not solely regulatory: its third-party payout processors and verification partners impose their own geographic limits, which the company says it cannot override. It concluded that it is unable to offer its services in the region at this time.
Contacted Company
A community volunteer asked E8 Markets to review its country restriction on Syria, citing the revocation of the comprehensive US sanctions programme and the rescinded state sponsor of terrorism designation. The exchange ran through the company's support channel over several days.
