No. API markup fees are not included in your tier calculation because they are added independently by third-party developers to their own platforms and are not paid by Deriv as commission.
The CPA plan is available to affiliates with accounts registered under Deriv Investments (Europe) Limited (DIEL).

Formula (per side)
Commission = (Traded volume in USD) × (Commission rate) ÷ 100,000
To calculate traded volume in USD:
Traded volume in USD = (Volume in lots) × (Contract size) × (Execution price) × (Conversion rate to USD)
Example calculation with Spain 35
Let’s say:
- You traded 1 lot of Spain 35
- Each contract (lot) is worth 1 unit
- The current price of the index is 10,500
- Conversion rate: 1 (quoted in USD)
- The commission rate (one side) is $10 per 100,000 USD traded
How to calculate:
1. Find the traded volume in USD:
1 (lot) × 1 (contract size) × 10,500 (price) × 1 (USD rate) = 10,500 USD
So, the total traded volume = 10,500 USD
2. Apply the commission formula:
Commission= (10,500 × 10) ÷ 100,000 = 1.05 USD
So, $1.05 commission per side
3. If you open and close the trade (round trade):
0.5×2 = 1.0$1.0 total commission
Tier rewards and quarterly performance bonus can only be paid into a Deriv real trading account or Wallet account. If you don’t have one, you can create a new partner account on Partner’s Hub using the same email address you used to register as a partner.
Example 1
If a referred client with a DIEL account deposits USD 100 in one transaction:
Total commission earned = USD 100
Example 2
If a referred client with a DIEL account based in the EU deposits USD 50 in their first transaction:
Commission earned = USD 0
When the same client deposits USD 50 in a second transaction:
Total commission earned = USD 100
Example 3
If a referred client with a DIEL account deposits USD 200 in one transaction:
Total commission earned = USD 100
