Live Chat – The Fastest Method
Live chat is integrated directly into the EC Markets client portal. Indian traders find it efficient because it shows real‑time availability. This tool works best for urgent questions about trading platforms or account access. Agents respond quickly during business hours. You can also attach files directly in the chat window.
How to Start a Live Chat Session
Follow these steps to connect with a support agent instantly. The process takes less than one minute from login.
- Log in to the EC Markets client portal using your registered email and password.
- Look for the speech‑bubble icon in the bottom‑right corner of the dashboard.
- Click the icon and type your question (for example: “How do I deposit via UPI?”).
- A support agent will respond within 1–3 minutes during business hours.
- If no agent is online, the system automatically converts your message into a support ticket.
The chat window supports file attachments (screenshots, PDFs) up to 10 MB. You can also request a transcript of the conversation. This method is available 24/5 from Monday to Friday. It works on both desktop and mobile browsers.
Email Support for Detailed Inquiries
Email remains the preferred channel for Indian traders who need to send documents. Our support team reads messages in English. Using clear, short sentences reduces reply time significantly. Include your account number in every message. This method works well for non‑urgent complex issues.
Email Addresses and Subject Line Guidelines
Use [email protected] for all general inquiries. For account‑specific matters, include your trading account number in the subject line. Example subject: “Pending KYC Verification – Account 12345678 – India”. Emails sent before 2:00 PM IST are typically answered the same business day. Attachments must be in PDF or JPG format, each under 5 MB.
What to Include in Your Email to Speed Up the Process
- Your full name and date of birth as registered on the portal
- Client portal email address used for login
- Trading account number (if already opened)
- Clear description of the issue or request
- Supporting documents (proof of identity, address, bank statement)
Our team reads emails in English only. Avoid using regional languages for faster processing. Always include your account number in the subject line. This reduces back‑and‑forth and speeds up resolution.
Phone Callback Request
EC Markets does not publish a direct inbound phone number for India. Instead, we offer a callback service. This method works best for urgent issues requiring verbal explanation. Failed deposits or platform errors are common reasons to request a call. The service is free for all EC Markets clients.

- Click “Request Callback” and choose your preferred time slot (9:00 AM – 6:00 PM IST).

- Submit the request. You will receive a call from a support agent within 30 minutes.
Phone callback requests submitted outside working hours will be processed the next business day. You will receive an OTP on your registered mobile number for verification. This method supports all Indian mobile networks without extra charges.
Client Portal Ticket System

This method is ideal for non‑urgent requests requiring attachments. Average first response is 2–4 hours on business days. The system shows real‑time status updates for each ticket.
