Why does IG offer a cash rebate?
We believe valuable clients deserve valuable benefits – and we show our gratitude to high-volume traders with cash rebates on the spread they’ve paid. If you meet certain thresholds of notional value in forex,1 indices or commodities each month, you’ll receive a percentage of your spread back.
You’re free to withdraw the cash rebate, or use it to open new trades.
How do I qualify for a cash rebate?
As you’re a professional client with IG Europe you’ll automatically be part of the rebate scheme by trading on your CFD account in the relevant asset classes.

How will the rebates work?
Example A: forex
If your notional trade value on forex is €250 million for the month, you would qualify for a rebate of 15% of the spread paid on forex in that month.
If that notional volume was all traded on EUR/USD and you paid an average spread of 1pt, your rebate would be €1704. That’s because €250m notional on EUR/USD equates to 2500 Standard contracts – or €11363 in spread paid,* of which 15% is £1704.
*Using a EUR/USD price of 1.10
Example B: indices
If your notional trade value on indices is €100 million for the month, you would qualify for a rebate of 5% of the spread paid on indices in that month.
If that notional volume was all traded on the Germany 40, your rebate would be €192. That’s because €100m notional on the Germany 40 equates to 307 standard contracts or €7692 per point, or €3846 in spread paid,* of which 5% is €192.
*Using a Germany 40 price of 13000. Please note all index spread rebates are based on the cash market, in-hours spread.
When will I receive my rebate?
Rebates for each month will be paid into your IG account on or about tenth calendar day of the following month. Your personal account manager will be in touch in advance to confirm the amount.
Please note that each asset class has its own thresholds, so meeting the requirements for one asset class won’t qualify you for a rebate in the others. Once you’ve successfully reached the threshold, you'll be paid a rebate based on all turnover generated in that asset class – not just for the amount beyond the threshold level.
1 Please note that Forex DMA trades are excluded from the rebate scheme.
