CFD rebates

Earn monthly cash rebates when CFD trading with CMC Markets on these asset classes:

Monthly CFD rebates structure

If you trade in high volumes, you can qualify for competitive monthly cash rebates^. Once you meet the minimum monthly notional value (NV) threshold in any asset class, you will receive rebates on the trades you make across all asset classes. Rebates are calculated on the volume traded in each asset class.

As an ongoing reward for traders, your rebates will now be calculated on the highest tier you qualify for, across all of your trading volume in that asset class.

FX

How it works: Your total monthly CFD trade value for forex will need to be at least $25M to qualify for rebates. When you reach this level, you can earn either 5%, 10%, 15% or 20% depending on the tier you achieve.

Trading volume rebate example
Your total trade value in the month is $250m. You therefore achieve tier 3. The tier 3 rebate rate is 15% of the spread you have paid in the month. If you paid $1,000 in spread costs your monthly volume rebate = $150 ($1,000 x 15%).

^These terms and conditions are effective from 15 December 2022 and are to be read in conjunction with CMC Markets’ Product Disclosure Statement (“PDS”) and related legal documents. Unless defined in these terms and conditions, capitalised terms have the meaning set out in the PDS.

In order to trigger a monthly rebate, the Level 1 threshold set out in the current rebate schedule advised to you from time to time (“Schedule”) must be exceeded in at least one asset class. If a Level 1 threshold has been exceeded in the month, rebates are paid across all asset classes in accordance with the monthly turnover thresholds shown in the Schedule.

For each calendar month that we offer the rebate to you we will calculate the total value of trades that you place on the Platform during that month and following the end of the month will credit your Account a rebate amount calculated in accordance with these Terms and Conditions and the Schedule.

The rebate amount will be tiered according to the total value of trades as shown in the Schedule. Rebates will be calculated in US Dollars in accordance with the Schedule, converted to your Account Currency using the last posted CMC Currency Conversion Rate for the applicable month and credited to your Account during the month following the calculation period.
