XTB launches in-app emergency lock offering investors a new level of account security


(MENAFN- Your Mind Media ) UAE – Dubai 10th March 2026
Today, the XTB investment app launched emergency lock, a new security feature that helps clients protect their assets quickly. If a login looks suspicious or something feels off, clients can now block withdrawals, card payments, and asset sales with a single tap to keep their money safe.
Financial scams and data breaches are now more common than ever, as fraud networks become more advanced and personal information is often exposed by third parties. Because of these growing threats, investors are at greater risk of phishing, identity theft, and unauthorized access. This makes it even more important to have stronger security features that users can control.
The in-app emergency lock feature allows XTB users to secure their accounts instantly if they suspect unauthorized access. With one action, clients can block the sale and purchase of financial instruments, fund withdrawals for all currency accounts, and disable all eWallet transactions. After changing the password, the client can reactivate account functionality by scanning their face, ensuring only the rightful owner can unlock the account.
Digital and cybersecurity threats are rising fast, and still, too many people feel powerless when something looks wrong. We wanted to give our clients a way to take back control in seconds. Emergency lock protects their money instantly and gives them the peace of mind that their money works securely for them, says Omar Arnaout, CEO at XTB.
Emergency Lock reinforces XTB’s commitment to building a safer investing experience where clients feel confident and protected at all times.
The feature is now available to all users of XTB investment app.
