Frequently asked questions
General
When you open a broker account through our referral link, the broker pays us a commission based on your trading. We pass most of that commission back to you. That money is your rebate. It is a share of what the broker pays us, not a refund of your trading costs.
Brokers pay introducing brokers and affiliates for sending them new clients. It is part of their marketing budget. We choose to give most of our share back to the traders we refer.
No. There are no sign-up or membership fees, and we never take money out of your trading account.
No. You get the same spreads and commissions as signing up directly. The broker pays us out of its own revenue, not from your account.
Accounts
Often you can't. Most brokers only pay commission on accounts opened through our link. Some let you move an existing account under our referral. Check the broker's page for the steps, if it allows this.
A UID is your unique user ID or account number at the broker. We use it to match your trading to your rebate. You can usually find it in your profile or account settings. Each broker page tells you exactly where to look.
Payouts
It depends on the broker. Some pay daily, others weekly or monthly. Each broker page shows its payout frequency. We can only pay you after the broker has paid us.
Depending on the broker, rebates go straight into your trading account or are sent to you in USDT. Each broker page shows which method applies.
Safety
Never. We will never ask for your broker password, API keys or 2FA codes. If someone asks for these and says they are from TradesBack, do not share them.
No. Rebates lower your trading costs, but trading leveraged products and crypto is still high risk and you can lose money. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.
