New Monthly Rebate to Help Reduce Your Trading Costs
Stock-Markets / Spread Betting Aug 09, 2017 - 09:17 AM GMTFinancial Spreads have started a new monthly rebate scheme called 'Trader Rebate'.
This gives clients a rebate, up to 20%, on their trading costs every month.
Do Rebates Help?
Trading rebates are there to reduce your trading costs and can work well for higher volume traders and/or investors who trade in large sizes.
If you trade infrequently then you are unlikely to earn a rebate.
This new Trader Rebate is useful because you don't need to claim it, if you earn a rebate then Financial Spreads will put the money in your trading account and you can withdraw it.
What About Low Volume Traders?
Financial Spreads offer competitive spreads e.g. 0.7pt on EUR/USD and 0.8pt on the FTSE 100, and they don't charge commissions to get in/out of trades.
Therefore many spread betters and CFD traders will find Financial Spreads a reasonably low cost option irrespective of the rebate.

Monthly Trader Rebate Example 1
- 100 closed trades on the Germany 30 (1pt spread) with a £5 stake creates £500 in spread costs and releases a Trader Rebate of £500 x 5% = £25 rebate
The following creates £1140 in spread costs and so gives a Trader Rebate of £1140 x 10% = £114:
- 25 closed trades on Brent Crude oil (3pt spread) with a £10 stake (£750 in Spread), and
- 100 closed trades on EUR/USD (0.7pt spread) with a £5 stake (£350 in Spread), and
- 25 closed trades on the UK 100 (0.8pt spread) with a £2 stake (£40 in Spread)
Spread betting and CFDs are leveraged products which carry a high level of risk to your capital. You can lose more than your initial deposit so you should ensure spread betting and CFDs meet your investment objectives and, if necessary, seek independent advice.
