Frequently Asked Questions
Find out everything you need to know about joining our partners program and earning as you refer clients.

Getting started
-
Pepperstone was founded in 2010 in Melbourne, Australia by a team of experienced traders with a shared commitment to improve the world of online trading. Frustrated by delayed executions, expensive prices and poor customer support, we set out to provide traders around the world with superior technology, low-cost spreads and a genuine commitment to helping them master the trade.
-
It depends on the method you'll use to refer clients. If you provide your clients with any services, then the IB program would be best for you. On the other hand, the CPA program is suitable for digital marketers who rely mostly on click tracking to source their referrals. Ideally, there would be no services or relationship shared with your leads.
-
No, our Partners Program is completely free to join. Creating an account is simple and only takes a few minutes.

Absolutely! From helping you set up your advertising to discussing your strategy for referring or introducing clients, one of our dedicated Account Managers will help you every step of the way.

Once you've decided what type of program you are most suited for, simply fill out the professional fund manager, IB or affiliate application form and you'll be on your way. Your Account Manager will then review your application and will also be in touch with you to help you get started.

Payments
-
We offer several different payment structures to suit your needs. When you open your account, your Account Manager will be in touch to help you decide on the payment structure that works best for you.
-
The amount you get paid for each goal is based on the Country Tiers. There are four goals and the amounts for each goal will add together. The breakdown will be displayed next to each goal within the Offer Details section of the tracking platform. You can use any link and it'll automatically redirect to the correct tier and language for you, depending on the IP address and browser settings of the person clicking on your link.
-
The minimum payout amount is USD$500. If your fee balance is less than USD$500 for a given month, the balance will be carried over and added to your fee entitlement for the following month. Fees are due to be paid within 15 days of the end of each calendar month, provided that your fee balance is over USD$500.
-
IB rebates are paid the day after a client closes an FX trade. For example, if the client closes their FX trade on Monday, the IB rebate would be paid on Tuesday.

Please be aware, if someone doesn’t register using your tracking link, we won’t be able to associate them with your program afterwards.
