Start with attribution

Rebate tracking depends on whether the account can be attributed to the eligible partner group. If the account is already under another partner, the broker may require a transfer request or a new account.

  • Do not assume an old account can be moved automatically.
  • Ask before placing new volume that you expect to be rebate-eligible.
  • Keep broker, account number, entity, and country details ready for review.

Confirm before trading

Volume placed before attribution is confirmed may not be eligible for cashback. The safest path is to check broker eligibility before funding or trading.

What GFX needs

The Join form asks for broker, country, account status, and expected monthly lots so the support team can recommend the right account path.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can old trading volume be backdated?

In most cases, no. Eligibility generally starts after the broker confirms attribution and reports qualifying activity.

Is a new account always better?

Not always. A fresh account can be cleaner for attribution, but the right account path depends on broker rules and your current account status.
