HFM Rebate: Cashback on Every Lot, Paid the Next Day

A rebate is cash that comes back to you on every trade you close. When you open your HFM trading account through ForexFanClub, HFM pays the rebate into your MyWallet, with nothing to apply for.

The $13.50 rebate on gold comes from a current HFM campaign on the Premium, Top Up and Copy Trade accounts. HFM has not announced an end date, and when the campaign ends, the gold rebate can go back to $10.80 a lot.

The amount depends on both the instrument and the account. Choose your account and lot size in the table below to see the rebate on your instrument. For a month of your own trading, our forex rebate calculator adds up the rebate for you.

The panel below shows the spread, the rebate and the net cost, which is your trading cost minus the rebate.

On 1 lot of gold, a Premium account gets back $13.50, but its spread costs about $35. An Unlimited account (InfinityX in India, KATANA in Japan) gets back only $2.70, and its spread costs about $10. So the spread decides which account is cheaper, not the size of the rebate.

HFM sorts its partners into five levels, Amber, Red, Silver, Gold and Platinum, and pays more per lot at each level. So the rebate you can get through a partner depends on that partner’s level, as well as the share the partner passes on.

1 lot of AUD/CAD on a Premium account

Partner level	HFM pays the partner	Your rebate at 90%
Amber	$4.00	$3.60
Red	$6.00	$5.40
Silver	$7.00	$6.30
Gold	$8.00	$7.20
Platinum (ForexFanClub)	$9.00	$8.10

At Amber, HFM pays the partner $4.00 on this trade. That is less than the $8.10 you receive through ForexFanClub, so a partner at that level could not match this rebate even if it passed its whole commission to you. Every instrument works the same way.

First time with HFM

The link in the button tells HFM that ForexFanClub is your partner, so start from the button and not from the HFM website.

Already have an HFM account

If you opened your HFM trading account through a ForexFanClub link or button, that trading account already earns the rebate. Any trading account that you add later needs Campaign ID 314605 too, as in step 3.

If your trading account has another partner, or no partner, keep your HFM Client Area login and add one more trading account in it. HFM keeps each existing trading account with the partner it was opened under, so only the new trading account earns the rebate.

If you open the trading account through the button below instead, HFM records ForexFanClub as its partner from the link. If your browser blocks cookies, enter Campaign ID 314605 as in step 3.

Then add the trading account to ForexFanClub

HFM pays the rebate whether you add the trading account to ForexFanClub or not. On ForexFanClub, you see every payment in one place and get the member rewards.

1. Register at the ForexFanClub member area (opens in a new tab) with your email address.
2. Open Dashboard, choose HFM and enter the number of the trading account you have just opened.
3. Approval takes 15 minutes at most. Your rebate history then appears under Auto Rebate History.

Only trading accounts opened through a ForexFanClub link can be added, so add the new trading account straight after you open it.

HFM adds up your rebate at midnight server time, so the trades you close today are paid tomorrow. Monday’s payment covers Friday to Sunday, because the markets are shut at the weekend.

HFM makes a payment once your total reaches $1, and a smaller total is carried over to the next day, so nothing is lost. That $1 comes quickly. A single 0.1-lot gold trade on a Premium account brings back $1.35.

To see your payments, open MyWallet › Wallet Actions › Wallet Finances in the HFM Client Area. Each one is listed as Rebates from 314605.

Small differences from the table come from currency conversion. From MyWallet, you can move the money to a trading account or withdraw it in the usual way. Our guide to withdrawing money from HFM shows how long each payment method takes.

A trade closed within 2 minutes earns no rebate, because HFM pays no partner commission on it. Hold the trade for 2 minutes or longer and the full rebate comes back.

Bonus credit lowers the rebate by its share of the margin. For example, if bonus credit covers half the margin on 1 lot of gold on a Top Up account, you receive $6.75 instead of $13.50. The margin from your own deposit earns the full rebate. Our HFM bonus guide shows which bonus you can get in your country and how it changes your rebate.

If you hold a buy and a sell on the same instrument, HFM pays the rebate on the larger position only. So if the buy and the sell are the same size, only one of them earns the rebate. These rules come from HFM’s partner agreement, and ForexFanClub adds none of its own.

Is a rebate the same as forex cashback?

“Forex cashback” and “forex rebate” describe the same thing, part of your trading cost paid back on every trade. The HFM version is automatic, so the money arrives on its own.

Can I take an HFM bonus and the rebate at the same time?

Yes. You can trade with an HFM bonus and still receive the rebate, but the part of a trade’s margin that the bonus covers earns no rebate. So the larger the bonus is against your own deposit, the smaller your rebate is.

Our HFM bonus guide shows which bonus HFM offers in your country. HFM’s promotions page (opens in a new tab) lists the offers that are running now.

Which partner code gives the ForexFanClub rebate at HFM?

The ForexFanClub partner code at HFM is 314605, which HFM also calls the Campaign ID.

When you register through a ForexFanClub button, the link passes 314605 to HFM for you. If your form shows a Partner Code or Campaign ID field, enter 314605 there.

When you open another trading account later, type 314605 in the Campaign ID box and tap Add.

Do I pay tax on the rebate?

In most countries, a rebate counts as income and may be taxable. The rules differ by country and change, so check your own position with a qualified tax adviser.
