| 30% / 20% / 15% | $1,000 | New & Active | Margin Support |
IST Markets structures its promotional bonuses as capital support tools under a transparent credit vs. reward model. Rather than marketing these incentives as 'free money,' the broker designs them under clear, published rules explicitly to support your margin resilience and capital efficiency.
All trading bonuses are issued as non-withdrawable trading credits to protect your account equity, while any profits you generate using the credit remain fully withdrawable at any time.
IST Markets allows clients to accumulate promotional capital across consecutive funding phases, mapping out maximum credit ceilings based on your deposit sequence.
| Funding Phase | Bonus Rate | Maximum Credit Cap |
|---|---|---|
| First Deposit | 30% Bonus | Up to $500 USD |
| Next Deposits | 20% Bonus | Up to $4,500 USD |
| Ongoing Tier | 15% Bonus | Up to $6,000 USD |
| Condition Parameter | Operational Detail |
|---|---|
| Bonus Type | Non-withdrawable trading credit deployed entirely for margin support. |
| Minimum Entry Floor | Starts from a minimum requirement of $1,000 USD (or currency equivalent). |
| Credit Schedule | Fully automated; credit is added after deposit verification. |
| Profit Withdrawals | Unrestricted. All profits generated using bonus funds are withdrawable. |
| Bonus Withdrawal | Prohibited. Bonus cannot be cashed out and is used only as trading equity. |
| Campaign Stacking | Allowed. Bonus and cashback programs can be used simultaneously. |
| Inactivity Clause | Bonus remains active while trading; long inactivity may remove credit. |
| Partner Tracking | IB and partner rewards operate separately with distinct rules. |
To help you manage your equity accurately, here is how account status adjustments impact your credit allocation:
Result: Profits Fully Liquid. Your earned profits are completely withdrawable at any time without locking restrictions, though the core credit remains attached to the account.
Result: Potential Credit Removal. While the credits don't carry a fixed expiration date under active trading, extended account inactivity triggers a review under the broker's terms, which can result in the bonus being removed.
