Monthly rebates structure

If you spread bet in high volumes, you can qualify for competitive monthly cash rebates on forex, indices and commodities. When you meet our monthly trade value requirements for one asset class, you automatically qualify for rebates from your first trade placed on other asset classes. Rebates are not generally available on shares and treasuries.

Forex

How it works:

The total monthly value of your spread bets on forex will need to be at least £50m to qualify for rebates. When you reach this level, you earn either £5, £7 or £10 depending on the tier you achieve, for every £1m you trade, from your very first trade in the month. You also receive holding cost adjustment rebates if you reach at least tier 1.

Conditions

Our monthly rebates are not available to all clients. In order to qualify for our monthly rebates you must be an eligible client and meet the minimum monthly trade value requirements outlined above.

CMC Markets retains the right to withdraw or amend its monthly rebates at any time, without prior notice and at its sole discretion. Payment of any rebate does not represent a commitment to provide a rebate in the future.

Although our monthly rebates will usually be credited by close of business on the second London business day of the following calendar month, there may be occasions where it takes longer to process the payment and CMC Markets will not be liable for any such delay or for any (direct or indirect) loss caused by such delay. CMC Markets will also not be liable for any (direct or indirect) loss caused by a missed rebate payment.

Payment of a rebate should not form the basis of any decisions you make in relation to your account activity. Furthermore, a rebate payment is not intended to limit your liability in respect of your trades and may not be used to set-off any payment obligation you have to us.

A rebate payment cannot be used to satisfy your total margin requirement, until such a time as the rebate payment has been credited to your account. Please note that normal rules and procedures in relation to account close-out will continue to apply and you should not rely on a rebate payment to prevent an account close-out.

The rebate is subject to, and contingent upon, your compliance with CMC Markets’ Terms of Business. In addition to any other rights and remedies we may have, any breach or suspected breach of the Terms of Business will entitle CMC Markets to stop paying the rebate immediately and without prior written notice, and/or reclaim payments previously paid pursuant to these terms.

The rebate will not be payable in respect of any trades that are subsequently voided, reversed or cancelled by CMC Markets in accordance with the Terms of Business and related documentation. If the rebate has already been paid in respect of any trades that are subsequently voided, reversed or cancelled by CMC Markets, CMC Markets will deduct the rebate paid in respect of such trades from your Account.
