People message me about partner codes all the time. Always the same thing: do you get discounted fees or free trading?
No. AvaTrade doesn't charge commission on forex. You pay the spread. That's the cost. A partner code has no impact on spreads.
Partner code 128979 gets you access to the deposit bonus. Additional trading capital depending on your deposit. Simple as that.
How much do you get?
A $1,000 deposit gets you $200.
Put in $2,000, get $400.
Deposits between $5,000 and $9,999 get $1,000.
Top tier is $14,000 on deposits over $100,000. Not many traders reach that level.
UK accounts start at £160 for £800 deposited. Top tier reaches £11,200.
You can open an account with $100. Minimum for any bonus is $1,000.
Finding the partner code field
When you're signing up. Once you've filled in your phone number, you'll see small text reading "Have a Partner Code?". Click the arrow. A field drops down. Type **128979**.
People overlook it constantly because it's hidden.
If the system rejects it, don't panic. Complete your registration. Contact support before funding. Ask them to add code 128979. They do this manually all the time.
Bonus withdrawal conditions
You need to trade a certain volume.
About 10,000 units for every dollar of bonus. A $200 bonus means trading 2,000,000 units before that $200 unlocks. Slower if you're trading micro lots. Happens faster than you'd think if you're active.
Your deposit is yours. Withdraw it whenever you want. The bonus stays locked until you hit the volume.
One thing worth knowing: the bonus adds to your available margin even when locked. This lets you take bigger positions. Newer traders benefit from that extra cushion.
