The IB commission payments system is transparent and unified: all the rates are fixed per each account type and each trading tool. The detailed table on the exact rates is available in the Partnership section of our website.
Please note that you receive your total IB commission for all clients attached to you and attached to the Partner under your IB and all orders they executed during the day on the following day. You can check payments per client and each order separately in the Reports section of your Personal area.For example, if your client opens an order in Cent account AUDCAD with volume 1 lot at an opening price of 1.00000 and closes it at 1.00060 (or opens at 1.00060 and closes at 1.00000), you will be able to get 10 cents.
If your client opens an order in Cent account AUDCAD with volume 1 lot at an opening price of 1.00000 and closes it at 1.00059 (or opens at 1.00059 and closes at 1.00000), you will not get the commission.
If your client opens an order in Cent account AUDCAD with volume 0.1 lot at an opening price of 1.00000 and closes it at 1.00060 (or opens at 1.00060 and closes at 1.00000), you will get 1 cent.
If your client opens an order in Cent account AUDCAD with volume 0.01 lot at an opening price of 1.00000 and closes it at 1.00060 (or opens at 1.00060 and closes at 1.00000), you will not get the commission because according to the Partner Agreement:
7.3. <...> Minimum amount of Introducing Broker's Commission for "Cent" accounts to be paid is 1 cent.
Along with this, we would like to remind you that no commission is paid for orders classified as "hedged." Please, refer to the Partner's Agreement:
7.4. In case partner commission was received for Buy and Sell orders opened for the same instrument and held in the market simultaneously, the Company has ground to consider the partner's actions fraudulent and reserves the right to cancel the paid commission and to detach the involved client/s.
For example, if your client simultaneously opens a BUY GBPUSD order and a SELL GBPUSD order, these actions may be considered as a violation of the Partner's Agreement. In this case, the commission will not be paid.
