Forex Rebate Calculator — Cashback Per Lot

The forex rebate calculator helps active traders quantify exactly how much cashback they earn through broker rebate programs. Rebate programs (also called cashback programs) pay you a fixed amount per lot traded, regardless of whether your trade wins or loses. This turns trading volume into a reliable income stream that reduces your effective spread cost. Popular rebate providers pay between $2–$8 per standard lot on major pairs. Enter your average monthly volume and rebate rate to see how much you could earn monthly and annually — and compare whether a high-rebate broker is worth switching to.

Rebate Calculator — Frequently Asked Questions

Q.What is a forex rebate?

A forex rebate is a cashback payment you receive for every lot you trade, paid by your broker or a third-party rebate provider. The rebate comes from the broker's spread or commission and is paid to you regardless of whether your trade was profitable. It is essentially a discount on your trading costs.

Q.How much can I earn from forex rebates?

It depends on your volume and rebate rate. A trader doing 100 lots per month at $5 per lot earns $500/month or $6,000/year. A high-volume trader doing 1,000 lots/month at $5 per lot earns $5,000/month. Rebates can meaningfully offset spread costs for active traders.

Q.What brokers offer the best rebates?

Popular rebate brokers and programs include IC Markets, Pepperstone, FP Markets, and third-party providers like CashBackForex and ForexRebates.com. Rates vary by pair, account type, and volume tier. Always compare the total cost (spread + commission − rebate) rather than just the rebate rate alone.

Q.Are forex rebates taxable?

In most countries, forex rebates are considered a reduction in trading costs (not income), so they reduce your cost basis rather than being taxed separately. However, tax treatment varies by jurisdiction. Consult a tax professional familiar with trading income in your country for advice specific to your situation.

Q.Are forex rebates worth it and how much can I earn?

Yes — rebates are free money on every trade. A typical rebate is $2–$7 per standard lot round-trip. An active trader doing 20 lots per week earns $40–$140/week ($2,080–$7,280/year) in cash back. Even a part-time trader doing 5 lots per week can earn $500–$1,800/year. Rebates are paid regardless of whether trades are profitable. Use this calculator to see your exact annual rebate potential.
