Deriv affiliate programme: how it works and what to know
Deriv's partner programme pays people who refer new clients. Deriv describes several plans, including revenue share on options, commission on turnover, and payouts on CFD volume, paid monthly. The published rates differ between Deriv's own pages, so the figure that applies is the one in your partner dashboard. A partner earns from the trading of the people they refer.
The plans Deriv describes
| Plan | Paid on | What Deriv's pages say |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue share | Net revenue from referred clients' options trades | A percentage, quoted differently on different Deriv pages |
| Turnover | Each contract a referred client buys | Up to 1.5% per contract |
| CFD commission | Trading volume on CFDs | A payout per amount of turnover on selected instruments |
| CPA | A referred client's first deposits | A fixed amount, for EU accounts only |
| Partner referrals | Partners you introduce | A further percentage |
Deriv's partner material says revenue share is calculated on net revenue, that commissions are paid monthly, and that tier bonuses apply. Confirm every rate in the partner dashboard before planning around it.
What a partner should understand
- Revenue share is a share of what referred clients lose, net. Your income rises when they lose and falls when they win.
- Turnover commission is paid on activity, win or lose, so it rewards volume.
- Either way, the partner's interest and the client's are not the same.
Promoting responsibly
- Say plainly that you earn from referrals.
- Never promise profits or show selected screenshots as typical results.
- Do not give a bot or signals as a hook without explaining the risk.
- Do not manage clients' accounts or take their logins.
- Follow the advertising rules of the countries you promote in, and Deriv's partner terms.
If you are on the other side
When someone recommends a broker, a bot or a strategy with a sign-up link, they are very likely a partner. That does not make their advice wrong. It does mean their income does not depend on your results, and may improve when you trade more. Judge the advice on whether you can test it on a demo account.
FXNOD's partner programme is separate
FXNOD has its own partner programme, described on its Partner page. It is run by FXNOD, has its own terms, and is not part of Deriv's partner programme.
