XM App Download in Kenya (Step-by-Step): Step-by-Step
- 1
Choose the right XM app for your phone
XM offers its own branded trading app on the Google Play Store for Android phones and the Apple App Store for iPhone. Search for "XM" and confirm the developer is listed as Trading Point before installing, since Kenyan search results often surface unofficial look-alike apps. If you prefer, XM also supports the standalone MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 apps, but the XM app itself bundles account management and trading in one place.

Install the app on your device
Tap Install on Google Play or Get on the App Store. On most Kenyan networks the XM app is a light download, so it completes quickly on 4G. If you are on a data-saving plan, connecting to Wi-Fi first avoids using bundles. Grant only the standard permissions the app requests during setup.

Open the app and select your login path
When you launch the app you will be asked whether you already have an XM account or want to create one. If you registered on the XM website, choose the existing-account option and enter your XM login ID and password. New Kenyan users can open a real or demo account directly inside the app.

Complete verification if you are a new client
As an XM client in Kenya you will need to verify your identity before you can deposit and trade real funds. Have a valid Kenyan ID, passport, or driving licence ready, plus a proof-of-address document such as a utility bill or bank statement. Upload these through the app's account section; XM reviews documents and confirms once approved.

Log in and check your account is live
After logging in, confirm your account currency and type on the dashboard, and check that live quotes are streaming. From here you can fund the account, place trades, and monitor positions. Keep the app updated through your store so you always have the latest security patches and features.
Regulatory Notice — Kenya
Regulator: Capital Markets Authority (CMA Kenya)

Frequently Asked Questions About XM
Is the XM app free to download in Kenya?
Yes. Both the XM app and the MetaTrader apps are free to download from Google Play and the Apple App Store. You only need funds to make a deposit and trade; the app itself carries no download charge, though you will use mobile data or Wi-Fi to install and run it.
Which documents do I need to verify my XM account from the app in Kenya?
You typically need a government-issued proof of identity such as a Kenyan national ID, passport, or driving licence, plus a recent proof of address like a utility bill or bank statement. You can photograph and upload these inside the app, and XM confirms once the documents are reviewed.
Can I use the same XM login on the app and the website?
Yes. Your XM account credentials work across the website, the XM app, and the MetaTrader apps. Once your account is created, log in on the app with the same ID and password rather than registering a second time.
What should I do if I cannot find the XM app on my phone's store?
Make sure your device software and store app are up to date, and search for XM while checking that Trading Point is listed as the developer. If it still does not appear, you can log in through the XM website in a mobile browser, or download MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5 and connect using XM's server details from your account confirmation email.
