In my experience trading with a variety of brokers, I’ve learned to always closely examine fee structures before selecting a platform. With Kontakperkasa Futures, I found that they do indeed charge a per-lot commission on trades. Specifically, their commission is $15 per side, or $30 per round-turn lot, with an additional 11% VAT on top of that. This fee applies broadly to their instruments, but based on publicly available details, Kontakperkasa Futures does not explicitly mention account types such as "ECN" or "raw spread accounts" in the way international forex brokers might. Instead, their accounts are categorized as individual or institutional, and all real accounts seem subject to this commission structure. For me, a flat per-lot fee can provide pricing clarity, but these costs are notably higher than what I encounter at many international brokers, especially those offering raw spreads. Higher commissions directly impact my trading costs, so it’s something I weigh carefully. In addition, overnight fees apply, and the relatively narrow target market—primarily Indonesian clients—could be a consideration for those outside the region. As with any broker, I proceed cautiously and always recommend verifying all costs and withdrawal processes, since one user report did mention some difficulty withdrawing funds. Ultimately, for traders who are comfortable with the domestic regulatory environment and fee structure, Kontakperkasa Futures is a legitimate, regulated option, but transparency regarding account models and total trading costs remains essential for risk management.
