Forex cashback is a rebate on the trading costs you already pay. Here's exactly how Pipstone.ai's rebate program works and how your cashback is credited.

What Is Forex Cashback (and Why Most Traders Don't Use It)?
Forex cashback — also called forex rebates — is a program where you earn a small payment for every lot you trade, regardless of whether that trade wins or loses. It's paid to you by an introducing broker (IB) who receives a commission from your broker for bringing you on as a client.
Most traders simply don't know this exists. Many brokers pay introducing brokers a rebate for each lot traded by their referred clients. When you trade through an IB like Pipstone.ai at one of its partner brokers, that rebate gets passed back to you as cashback.
The result: you're essentially getting paid to trade the way you already do.
How Much Cashback Will You Get?
Pipstone.ai pays cashback on every lot you trade through a linked partner-broker account. Rates vary by broker, account type and instrument, so there is no single figure that applies to everyone.
Your actual cashback is tracked trade by trade — see your earnings in your Pipstone dashboard once your broker account is linked.
Which Brokers Are Supported?
Cashback is available on accounts at our partner brokers.

Does Cashback Affect My Trading Conditions?
No. Joining a cashback program does not change your spreads, execution speed, or any other trading conditions. You trade on the same server with the same conditions as any other client. The cashback is funded by the broker's IB commission — it doesn't come out of your trading account.
Cashback + Free EAs = The Full Pipstone Advantage
The real power of Pipstone.ai is the combination of free professional trading tools and cashback. When you run an EA through your connected broker account, every lot that EA trades earns you cashback on top of any P&L the EA generates.
Your automated strategy generates trades → those trades earn cashback → cashback pays you regardless of trade outcome.
The Referral Bonus: Earn Even More
Pipstone.ai also has a multi-level referral system. When you refer other traders:
- You earn a percentage of their cashback earnings
- This extends across multiple referral levels
- There's no cap on how many traders you can refer
Frequently Asked Questions
Is forex cashback legal?
Yes. Cashback/rebate programs are completely legal and widely used across the industry. They are a standard part of the broker affiliate model.
When do I get paid?
Cashback is credited to your Pipstone wallet after the trade is settled. You can withdraw once you reach the minimum threshold.
Can I get cashback on existing broker accounts?
This depends on your broker. In most cases, existing accounts can be linked to Pipstone for cashback if you haven't been referred by another IB. Contact support to verify your situation.
