Bonuses
I got a bonus. How do I use it to trade?
You need to collect enough trader points to release a bonus and use it for trading. Trader points are added to your account every time you open a position, depending on the instrument’s trade value.
What are Rebates?
Rebates are rewards that you get based on your trading activity and according to the rebates terms and conditions. You are automatically added to the rebates programme within 12 days of your first deposit - no additional effort is required from you. Once in the programme, you start accumulating rebates for every trade you make! At the end of each week, you may collect the rebates that you have accumulated by clicking the ‘Collect’ button under ‘Rebates’ (Menu → Funds Management → Rebates), and the amount will be added to your account as a bonus. You can also check your accumulated rebates, as well as the terms for their collection and expiry dates in your Rebates Account. Full T&Cs can be found in the trading platform under Funds → Rebates → Learn More.
Where can I find information regarding my bonuses?
After receiving a bonus, you can access the Bonus Account (through “Funds Management” → “Bonus Account") for further details about the bonus, such as: the bonus amount, the amount of accumulated Trader Points, the bonus issuing date, etc.
Which bonuses do you offer?
We offer a number of bonuses such as bonuses for your “Initial Deposit”. Each bonus has conditions for eligibility and availability for trading and/or withdrawal, such as certain minimum trading volumes (represented by Trader Points), within a specified time period. From time to time, Plus500 may offer additional bonus promotions, which will be offered to you based on certain pre-defined criteria and at Plus500’s sole discretion. If you are eligible to receive such a bonus, a message with the bonus details will appear in your Plus500 Account.
Why didn’t I receive my first deposit bonus?
All bonuses have conditions for eligibility, and occasionally a limited promotion period after which the bonus expires if the required minimum trading volumes are not satisfied.
If the deposited amount is less than 100 EUR (or the equivalent amount in your currency), or if the bonus code wasn’t inserted during the depositing process, a bonus will not be added to your trading account. Please contact us for further assistance on this matter by clicking on the “Email Us” link. In relation to the first deposit bonus, you provide your consent to the terms and conditions associated with this bonus by entering the relevant bonus code in the deposit field.
