How much rebate do pro traders get?

When your trading reaches pre-defined tiers, you’ll be eligible for a rebate. Depending on how much you’ve traded in the previous calendar month, your rebate will fall into one of our three rebate tiers – see the table below for details.

Plus, if you qualify for a rebate in one asset class, you’ll also get a rebate at the same tier for all of the other asset classes you trade – regardless of whether you’ve met the notional trade volume in that asset class.

See our full terms and conditions.

How do the rebates work?

We work out your rebate using the following calculation:
(USD million notional traded) x (rebate per million traded) = your rebate

Example A: forex

If your notional trade value on forex is US$300 million for the month, you’d qualify for a tier three rebate of US$10 per million traded. So using the below calculation, your monthly rebate would be US$3000 – or AU$4100.

300 (USD million notional traded) x 10 (rebate per million traded) = US$3000 or AU$41001

Example B: indices

During the same month your notional value on indices is US$35 million. But because you met the tier three threshold on forex, you also qualify for the tier three rebate of US$7 per million on indices.

35 (USD million notional traded) x 7 (tier 3 rebate per million traded) = US$245 or AU$3301

So your total rebate for the calendar month would be AU$4100 + AU$330 = AU$44301

1 Total value is calculated based on the end-of-day FX rate on the rebate calculation date. All rebate amounts are calculated in US dollars and paid in the account currency.

When will I receive my rebate?

Your rebate will be automatically paid into your IG account on or about the eighth business day of the month – if you qualified in the previous calendar month. We’ll email you when your rebate has been processed.

How do I qualify for a cash rebate?

You will first need a Pro account. You’ll then automatically qualify for a rebate if you meet the thresholds of notional value in forex, indices, shares or commodities in the previous calendar month. However, certain investor protections are not available to Pro clients.

Check if you’re eligible for Pro.
