You can still access the external dispute resolution provider Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA), however you may be treated differently given your status as an experienced wholesale investor and your matter may be excluded at AFCA’s discretion. There’s no requirement to issue you a Product Disclosure Statement (PDS), Financial Services Guide (FSG), and disclosures, however these are available on our website for you to review. We may assume a level of knowledge and experience when assessing whether our products are appropriate for you.

Better discounts for high-volume traders.
FX | Index & Commodities * | Trading Volume Requirement (Lots) | |||
Tiers | Discount Per FX lot** | Spread reduction** | FX Lots | Commodities Lots | Index Lots |
Tier 1 | $1 | 10% | < 200 | < 400 | < 2,000 |
Tier 2 | $2 | 20% | 200 < 1,500 | 400 < 3,000 | 2,000 < 15,000 |
Tier 3 | $3 | 30% | > 1,501 | > 3,001 | > 15,001 |
In a trading month, if you meet the trading volume of one symbol or asset class, you will receive trading cost discounts of the tier.
*Index & Commodities - discounts are applied to a select list of Indices & commodities based on minimum spreads. List of eligible Commodities and Indices instruments here.
**We calculate the Volume-based Discount as a percentage of our commission or spread, based on the volume of trades that you make. To remain a member of the Active Trader program, you need to meet the volume requirements over a 3-month period. You can find the full Terms and Conditions of our Active Trader program here.
Trading Volume rebate example:
If your total FX volume traded in a month is 500 lots, this falls under Tier 2. Tier 2 receives $2 per lot of FX, 20% spread reduction for Indices & Commodities* even if your trading volume does not meet the minimum requirement of the other two asset classes
