These Terms & Conditions govern participation in the Company's VIP status program (Gold, Platinum and VIP tiers). By holding any of these statuses, the Client agrees to all terms set out below.
1. Eligibility and status acquisition
1.1. To participate in the program, the Client must hold a real trading account with the Company.
1.2. A status is assigned automatically once the Client's qualifying deposit balance reaches the threshold for the corresponding tier. No application is required.
1.3. Status thresholds are based on net deposits (deposits minus withdrawals) and not on equity. Floating profits, realised profits and bonus credits do not count toward the threshold.
2. Status tiers
- Gold — qualifying deposit of USD 50,000.
- Platinum — qualifying deposit of USD 100,000.
- VIP — qualifying deposit of USD 150,000.
2.1. Benefits are applied at the level of the highest qualifying tier. The Client cannot hold more than one status simultaneously.
3. Trading activity requirement
3.1. To remain eligible for the benefits of an assigned status and to qualify for the monthly interest accrual described in section 7, the Client must trade a minimum monthly volume:
- Gold — minimum 20 standard lots per calendar month.
- Platinum — minimum 35 standard lots per calendar month.
- VIP — minimum 50 standard lots per calendar month.
3.2. Volume is measured on closed positions only. Open or unrealised positions do not count.
3.3. Volume is counted across all eligible asset classes — FX, metals, indices, energies and other CFDs. Cryptocurrencies and equities (stocks) are excluded and do not contribute to the monthly volume requirement.
4. Trading bonus
4.1. Upon reaching a status, the Client is eligible for a one-time trading bonus credited to the trading account:
- Gold — 50% of the qualifying deposit.
- Platinum — 100% of the qualifying deposit.
- VIP — 150% of the qualifying deposit.
4.2. The trading bonus is non-withdrawable; it is credited to the account as additional margin only. The bonus is automatically removed when either of the following occurs:
- the Client makes any withdrawal of funds from the trading account; or
- the account's equity falls to the bonus amount — the bonus does not absorb trading losses (no drawdown protection).
4.3. The bonus may not be transferred between accounts and is forfeited upon account closure or downgrade.
5. Swap-free
5.1. All three statuses (Gold, Platinum, VIP) are swap-free: no overnight swap charges or credits are applied to positions held overnight.
5.2. The Company reserves the right to apply standard swap charges to positions that show evidence of swap arbitrage or other abusive practices.
6. Spread rebate
6.1. Platinum and VIP clients are entitled to a monthly spread rebate calculated as a percentage of the spread paid on qualifying closed transactions:
- Platinum — 10% of the spread.
- VIP — 25% of the spread.
6.2. The rebate is paid in cash, in real funds, and is credited to the Client's trading account between the 1st and 5th day of the month following the reporting period. Once credited, the rebate is immediately available for withdrawal.
6.3. Only closed transactions on FX and Metals qualify for the rebate, and only where:
- the trade duration is at least 5 minutes, and
- the difference between the opening price and the closing price is at least 30 points.
6.4. Trades that do not meet the above conditions, or that are flagged as scalping, latency arbitrage or hedge-and-close abuse, are excluded from the rebate calculation.
6.5. Withdrawing the rebate does not, on its own, affect the Client's qualifying deposit balance. However, any withdrawal that reduces the deposit balance below the tier threshold may trigger a downgrade as described in section 12, and any withdrawal during the 12-month qualifying period for the interest on balance (section 7) will forfeit that benefit.
7. Interest on balance (VIP only)
7.1. VIP clients are eligible for an annual interest accrual of 5% on the qualifying deposit balance.
7.2. Interest is accrued once per year, calculated at the close of the last day of the 12th month following the program start date.
7.3. The eligible balance consists exclusively of the Client's deposits, net of withdrawals, remaining in the account on the calculation date, subject to the following adjustments:
- any equity arising from positive trading profits — whether realised or unrealised — is expressly excluded;
- negative unrealised floating positions (drawdowns) on the calculation date are included and reduce the eligible balance;
- positive trading profits do not increase the eligible balance under any circumstances.
7.4. Interest is calculated as: Annual Interest Rate × Sum of Qualified Deposit Balances.
7.5. No withdrawals may be made from the account during the entire 12-month qualifying period. Any withdrawal — partial or full — during this period forfeits the interest accrual for that period in full.
7.6. The Client must continue to meet the trading activity requirement set out in section 3 throughout the qualifying period. Failure to meet the minimum monthly volume in any month of the qualifying period forfeits the interest accrual for that period.
8. Structured products
8.1. Gold and Platinum clients have access to the Company's Standard structured products offering.
8.2. VIP clients have access to the Enhanced structured products offering, which includes additional product types, larger ticket sizes and priority allocation on capacity-limited products.
8.3. Each structured product is governed by its own term sheet, which prevails over this document with respect to that product.
9. VPS compensation
9.1. Platinum and VIP clients are entitled to reimbursement of annual VPS server hosting costs (VPS Compensation). The maximum compensation is determined based on average annual VPS rental costs and is set as follows:
- Platinum — up to USD 300 per year.
- VIP — up to USD 500 per year.
9.2. The compensation is credited to the Client's trading account upon submission of a payment receipt confirming annual VPS server rental to the Client's Personal Manager.
9.3. The compensation amount is limited to the Client's actual rental expenses and shall not exceed the maximum limit established for the respective status.
9.4. VPS Compensation is not paid retroactively for periods prior to the Client reaching Platinum or VIP status.
10. Weekly market reports
10.1. Platinum and VIP clients receive the Company's weekly market report, distributed by the Personal Manager, covering market commentary, key economic events for the week ahead and trade ideas from the Company's research desk.
10.2. The report is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.
11. Weekly personal analytics (VIP only)
11.1. VIP clients receive a weekly personal analytics report prepared by the Company's analyst team, covering the Client's own trading activity for the previous week — instrument exposure, win rate, average holding time, drawdown statistics and observations on execution quality.
11.2. The personal analytics report is delivered through the Personal Manager and is provided for informational purposes only.
12. Status maintenance and downgrade
12.1. To maintain a status, the Client must continuously:
- maintain a qualifying deposit balance at or above the threshold for the assigned tier, and
- meet the minimum monthly trading volume set out in section 3.
12.2. If either condition is not met for three consecutive calendar months, the status is automatically downgraded to the next-lower tier for which the Client qualifies, or revoked entirely if the Client no longer qualifies for any tier.
12.3. Upon downgrade, status-specific benefits (spread rebate, interest accrual, VPS compensation, weekly reports) cease at the start of the next reporting period. Benefits already credited or earned for completed periods are not clawed back.
12.4. The Client may re-qualify for a higher status at any time by meeting the deposit and activity requirements again.
13. KYC and compliance
13.1. Status assignment and the payment of any program benefit are conditional upon successful completion of the Company's Know-Your-Customer (KYC) procedures.
13.2. The Company reserves the right to suspend status, withhold rebate payments and refuse interest accrual where KYC documentation is incomplete or where the Client's activity raises compliance concerns.
14. Prohibited practices
14.1. The following practices are prohibited and may result in forfeiture of program benefits and revocation of status:
- artificially inflating trading volume (wash trading, churning, hedged offsetting trades across accounts) to meet the minimum lots requirement or qualify for the spread rebate;
- opening multiple accounts to circumvent the program's per-client conditions;
- abuse of swap-free conditions, including positions that are economically equivalent to a swap arbitrage strategy;
- withdrawal of funds for the sole purpose of avoiding the qualifying period requirement under section 7 and immediate redeposit thereafter.
15. General provisions
15.1. The Company reserves the right to amend these Terms & Conditions at any time. Material changes will be communicated to existing program participants through the Personal Manager and via the Client's registered email address with reasonable notice.
15.2. In the event of any conflict between these Terms & Conditions and the Company's Client Agreement, these Terms & Conditions prevail with respect to the program.
15.3. The Company's decisions on status assignment, rebate calculation, interest accrual and disqualification are final.
15.4. Nothing in these Terms & Conditions creates an investment advisory, fiduciary or partnership relationship between the Client and the Company.
