Commission rates and account currency

MetaTrader 4/5

The commission is calculated on the transaction volume. Depending on the account's deposit currency, the rates may vary slightly.

In the table below we present the values ​​collected by IC Markets in a given currency, which they already include a discount for Forex Club customers.

cTrader

The currency of the bill does not matter. The commission for Forex Club clients is USD 27,50 for 1 million USD turnover, compared to the standard USD 30 per page. The commission rate is converted based on the generated turnover of the position - for the opening and closing of a 1.0 lot USD transaction, the commission is 5,5 USD (compared to the standard 6 USD).

CFD instruments

On CFDs, the cost is always calculated in its entirety in the transaction spread. To find out how spreads for individual instruments are shaped, the best option is to set up a demo account (quotes identical to the real account) or use the following subpage.

Payment and withdrawal of funds

Fund management operations are available from the Client Area.

The most popular methods:

• traditional bank transfer (Without payments!),
• credit / debit card,
• Skrill
• Neteller,
• PayPal,
• Bitcoin wallet.

Transactions are available in up to 10 currencies: USD, EUR, CHF, GBP, AUD, NZD, JPY, HKG, CAD, SGD.

Payments

IC Markets does not charge, but also does not cover, costs related to the transfer of funds. In the case of a transfer transaction, the customer bears the SWIFT / SEPA transfer costs according to his bank's price list. The duration of such an operation is usually 1-3 business days.

If you want to quickly top-up your account, the best deals are credit card / debit card transactions or on-line payment operators, such as Skrill, Neteller or PayPal. The funds on the account are posted on the same day.

The withdrawal of funds is ordered after logging in to the Customer Area (tab Withdraw Funds), where we can also monitor the status of our transactions.
