| Feb 7, 2018 at 15:59 | comment | added | user662852 | A long time ago, an online brokerage gave me a paper checkbook that draws on the cash settlement account (and the margin, technically, which is a weird exploit to make personal interest tax deductible). I hardly ever used it myself but maybe you can find a brokerage that offers it if you need it. | |

| Feb 6, 2018 at 21:51 | comment | added | rackandboneman | "winnings" might be a mistranslation from German or similar language: "Gewinn" can be both profit and winnings. | |

| Feb 6, 2018 at 10:24 | comment | added | TripeHound | Anti-money-laundering regulations probably play a large part. If they only send/receive money through one (well-vetted) conduit, it probably saves them a lot of bureaucratic headaches. | |
| Feb 6, 2018 at 8:50 | comment | added | RonJohn | I din't hint that they're possibly scams. And why do you avoid naming names? | |
| Feb 6, 2018 at 8:41 | comment | added | kevin | @RonJohn these are online trading platforms with CFD products. IDs and documents are required to open an account, and I've traded real money on them, so I'd say they are valid and not a scam. I'd avoid mentioning specific names here. | |
| Feb 6, 2018 at 8:37 | comment | added | RonJohn | It probably makes it simpler to defend against identity theft/hijacking. What platforms are those? | |
