Terms

Terms of use

Everything on Mombasa Token is educational material about bitcoin (BTC/USD) trading, and none of it is advice or an offer.

Educational material, not advice

The pages on this site are educational material only and are not advice and not an offer to buy or sell anything. They explain how a market, a margin calculation or a broker's terms work; they do not tell a reader what to do with their money. Mombasa Token is not a broker, not a bank and not a licensed adviser.

A reader who needs advice on their own situation should speak to someone licensed to give it. The desk can explain a formula but cannot tell you whether a trade suits you.

The risk of loss is real

CFDs on bitcoin carry a high risk of loss and most retail accounts lose money. Leverage magnifies both directions, so a position that looks small in margin terms can lose more than the amount set aside for it. The figures on this site, including the worked example of a 0.10-lot position needing about $385.00 margin at the applicable cap, illustrate mechanics and are not a suggestion to trade at that size.

Leverage is a cap, not a target. Nothing on this site is a guarantee of a result, and a reader who treats any page as one has misread it.

Changes to These Terms Are Published on This Page With the Revision Date Updated

Changes to these terms are published on this page, and the revision date at the top is updated when a new version goes live. The published version replaces earlier wording from the moment it appears, and continued use of the site after that point means you accept the revised terms. We do not send individual notices for routine edits, so if you rely on a specific clause, check this page rather than an older copy you saved or printed.

Substantive changes are described in plain words on the page itself, not buried in a version number. That includes edits to the affiliate disclosure, the limits of liability or the governing-law clause. We do not backdate revisions, and we do not quietly remove a disclosure while keeping the same date. If a change affects how the affiliate relationship is described, the updated disclosure appears in the affiliate section so a reader who starts there sees the current position.

The terms can change because the underlying facts change. Examples include a different FxPro entity serving Kenya, a change in the leverage cap that applies here, or a shift in how M-Pesa funding is handled by the broker. When that happens, the page is corrected rather than left with stale wording. We do not set a fixed review interval, because the trigger is a change in the facts or the law, and the revision date is the reliable signal of when the current text was published.

The Affiliate Relationship Is Disclosed in Full: We May Earn a Commission From FxPro Links

Mombasa Token operates an affiliate relationship with FxPro. If you click a link from this site to FxPro and then open or use an account, the site may receive a commission from FxPro. That payment comes from the broker, not from you as an extra charge on your trading account. The commission does not change the price you see on the platform, and it does not give us access to your funds, your trades or your personal account details.

The affiliate relationship does not buy influence over what we publish. We do not rank brokers by payout, we do not invent spreads, commissions, swaps or minimum deposits, and we do not promise that FxPro is cheaper or better than any other firm. Where a cost is not a fixed number we were given, we describe what it consists of and what it depends on instead of calling it low or competitive. Any example figures, such as the roughly $385.00 margin on a 0.10-lot bitcoin position at the applicable cap, are illustrative mechanics, not an offer.

You are free to reach FxPro without using our links. The affiliate arrangement is stated so you can weigh our content with that interest in mind. It does not make Mombasa Token part of FxPro, and it does not make FxPro responsible for anything written here. If you have a complaint about a trade, a deposit made via M-Pesa or an account decision, raise it with FxPro directly through its official channels, because this site cannot access, escalate or settle client-account matters.

Dated figures and affiliate links

Figures are dated and must be verified with the broker before use. A page records the date its numbers were read, and a broker's current terms may differ. Check the broker's own documents, including the terms that apply to the entity serving Kenya, before relying on anything here.

Affiliate links mean the reader's relationship is with the broker. If you open an account through a link on this site, your contract is with that broker, its regulator and its policies, not with Mombasa Token. The desk may receive a referral fee, which does not change what you pay the broker.

What You Should Verify With FxPro Before Relying on Any Figure on This Site

Verify every number with FxPro before you trade, because this site repeats illustrative mechanics rather than live account terms. The reference price near 77000.0, the 1 BTC standard lot size, the 1.0 pip value and the roughly $385.00 margin on a 0.10-lot position are examples used to explain how bitcoin margin works. They are not a quote, not a minimum deposit and not a promise that your account will show the same figures when you log in.

Confirm the leverage cap that applies to the FxPro entity serving Kenya, and treat it as a ceiling rather than a target. A higher cap increases both the position you can open and the speed at which losses can grow, so the sensible check is whether the margin requirement fits your own funds after allowing for M-Pesa deposit and withdrawal timing. This site does not state a spread, commission, swap or minimum deposit as a number, because those depend on the account type and market conditions at the broker.

Check the regulator position directly as well. FxPro is licensed by the FCA (UK), CySEC and FSCA — not by the CMA of Kenya, so the protections you receive depend on which entity contracts with you. Ask FxPro in writing which entity serves Kenyan clients, which regulator supervises it and how complaints are handled. Keep records of those answers alongside your own trade history, because this site cannot confirm your account terms, retrieve your statements or act on your behalf in any dispute.

Limits of Liability: We Are Not Responsible for Trading Losses or Third-Party Platform Failures

Mombasa Token is not liable for money you lose trading bitcoin (BTC/USD) or any other instrument after reading this site. Trading involves margin, leverage and fast price movement, and losses can exceed what you expected to risk. You alone decide whether to open an account, how many lots to trade and whether to use the leverage cap available to the entity serving Kenya. Nothing on this site transfers that decision, or its financial consequences, to Mombasa Token.

We are also not responsible for how a third party performs. That includes FxPro's execution, its MT4, MT5, cTrader and app platforms, M-Pesa deposit processing, internet or device failures, and any delay in crediting funds. We do not control those systems and cannot reverse a trade, recover a deposit or compel a broker to act. If a platform outage or payment delay affects you, contact the provider directly and keep your own records, because this site has no access to client accounts or transaction data.

The information here is provided as it stands, without a warranty that every figure matches your live account. Reference prices such as the approximate 77000.0 level and the $385.00 margin example are illustrations of mechanics, not live quotes, and the leverage cap depends on the entity serving this country. To the extent the law allows, Mombasa Token accepts no liability for indirect or consequential loss arising from reliance on the content. Where Kenyan law does not permit a limit, that limit does not apply, and nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Kenyan Law Governs These Terms, With Consumer Protections That Cannot Be Contracted Away

These terms are governed by the laws of Kenya, and any dispute about the content of this site is subject to the jurisdiction of the Kenyan courts. That applies to how the site is published, how the affiliate disclosure is read and how the liability limits are interpreted. It does not govern your trading account with FxPro, which is run under the agreement and regulatory regime of the FxPro entity that serves Kenya, so read that client agreement separately before you deposit funds.

Regulation of the broker is separate from the law that governs this website. FxPro is licensed by the FCA (UK), CySEC and FSCA — not by the CMA of Kenya. That caveat matters because the CMA is the local authority readers in Kenya may expect to see named, and it is not the regulator of this broker. If you want to confirm which protections attach to your account, ask FxPro which entity contracts with you and which regulator supervises it, then verify that on the regulator's own register.

Nothing in these terms removes rights you have under Kenyan consumer law that cannot be waived by agreement. Where a clause here conflicts with a mandatory statutory protection, the statute prevails to the extent of the conflict. The governing-law clause is there to make clear which courts hear disputes about this site, not to move your broker relationship into a different legal system. For account disputes, use the complaint route in FxPro's client agreement and, where relevant, the dispute process of its regulator.

Mombasa Token Publishes Information About BTC/USD Trading, Not Personal Investment Advice

Mombasa Token is a free educational website that explains how bitcoin (BTC/USD) trading works on platforms such as MT4, MT5, cTrader and the FxPro app. Everything here is general information written for readers in Kenya, using KSh examples and M-Pesa funding references where relevant. It is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold bitcoin, and it does not take your circumstances into account. No page on this site is a personal recommendation, a signal service or a promise of any outcome, because bitcoin trading carries a real risk of losing money quickly.

This site is not a broker, a fund manager, a dealer or a licensed investment adviser. It does not execute orders, hold client money, process M-Pesa deposits or open trading accounts on your behalf. Those activities belong to FxPro, the broker referenced in our material, which is licensed by the FCA (UK), CySEC and FSCA — not by the CMA of Kenya. Before you trade, check the entity that serves Kenya and confirm the exact terms, costs and leverage cap that apply to your account directly with FxPro.

What this site is not also includes a substitute for your own judgment. It cannot tell you whether a 0.10-lot bitcoin position, which needs about $385.00 margin at the applicable cap, is right for your income, savings or family obligations. It does not know your tax position, your other debts or your experience level. Use the explanations here to understand mechanics such as lot size and margin, then verify every figure with the broker and, where needed, seek regulated advice from a professional authorised to give it in Kenya.

FAQ

Common questions

What is Mombasa Token, in legal terms?

Mombasa Token is an information website about bitcoin (BTC/USD) contracts. It is not a broker, not an exchange, not a fund manager and not an investment adviser, and it holds no client money. Nothing on the site is a personal recommendation or an offer to buy or sell any instrument.

What risk am I taking by trading bitcoin?

Trading bitcoin on leverage is high risk and you can lose more than you expect, including your entire deposit. Leverage is a cap, not a target: at the applicable cap a 0.10-lot position needs about $385.00 margin, and a small adverse move can wipe that out. Only risk money you can afford to lose.

Who is responsible if I lose money after reading this site?

You are. The site explains mechanics and formulas; it does not make decisions for you. Any trade you place is with your broker under their terms, and the loss is yours. We accept no liability for trading losses, and we cannot recover funds from a broker on your behalf.

Does the site's content apply to my broker?

Not necessarily. Figures depend on the entity serving you and its leverage cap. For Kenyan readers we cover the FxPro entity for this country, and note that FxPro is licensed by the FCA (UK), CySEC and FSCA — not by the CMA of Kenya. Confirm terms with your own broker before trading.

Can the terms on this page change?

Yes. The terms and the content they cover may be updated as the site develops, and the version published here is the one that applies. If a change affects a figure you may have relied on, we note it on the relevant page. Continued use of the site means you accept the current version.
