FXCM's Affiliate Program is offering CPA Commissions. For each qualified client you bring to FXCM, you can get a fixed commission based on our commission plan. For more details, please see our Commission Plan.

A qualified client is:

• either a new client who doesn't hold any other accounts with FXCM;
• or an existing client who has only closed account(s) with FXCM and they have been closed for at least 6 months prior to the referral date and doesn't hold any other active accounts.

In order for the client to be considered as qualified, deposits should be equivalent to or greater than the amount displayed on the Commission Plan per the different groups and has executed 10 closed trades.

The minimum payout is US$150.

The payment method is with Bank wire.

The commission will be paid 20 (twenty) calendar days after the month during which the commissions were earned.

Please note that domestic bank wires take about one to two business days and international bank wires take about three to five business days, often less, to arrive.
