An Islamic (swap-free) account does not charge or pay overnight financing (swap/rollover), aligning with principles that avoid interest (riba). Availability and exact terms vary by broker and region.

Instead of daily swap marks, some brokers apply an alternative fee structure (e.g. wider spreads or an admin fee) to remain compliant. Confirm the exact model, as 'swap-free' does not always mean zero cost.

Most brokers let you open a standard account and then request Islamic/swap-free status (often by selecting it at sign-up or contacting support). Eligibility and documentation may apply.
