We have 3 revenue models for Affiliates promoting Options:

1. Revenue Share: Earn commissions up to 45% based on the monthly net revenue generated by your clients. The higher their net revenue, the higher your commission payout.
2. Turnover: Earn up to 1.5% commission for each contract your clients purchase.
3. Cost per acquisition (For EU clients only): Earn a USD 100 commission for each successful accumulative USD 100 deposit. Your referred client must open a real account using your tracking link and deposit USD 100 or more (one-time or accumulative).

For Affiliates promoting CFDs, refer to this question on CFD calculations.

Affiliates will earn commission from clients who trade Options on:

• Deriv platforms: Deriv Trader, SmartTrader, Deriv Bot, and Deriv GO.
• Third-party platforms: Only via Deriv API.

‍

For Affiliates with clients who trade CFDs, refer to Which trading platforms are part of the Deriv IB programme?

Deriv’s Revenue Share plan allows Affiliates to earn commissions based on the monthly net revenue generated by their clients' Options trades. The commission rate varies depending on the amount of net revenue generated.

‍

Please note that affiliates residing in the EU can sign up for the Revenue Share plan but can only refer clients residing outside the EU.

For monthly net revenue of Options trades:

• USD 20,000 or less: 30% commission
• Exceeding USD 20,000: 45% commission

‍

For example:

If a client generates USD 10,000 in monthly net revenue:

• Commission: USD 10,000 x 30% = USD 3,000

‍

If a client generates USD 25,000 in monthly net revenue:

• Commission for first USD 20,000: USD 20,000 x 30% = USD 6,000
• Commission for remaining USD 5,000: USD 5,000 x 45% = USD 2,250
• Total commission: USD 6,000 + USD 2,250 = USD 8,250

Only Multiplier Financials are excluded from Affiliate commission generation.

Digital Options: Based on the payout probability of the client's contracts. For more detailed calculations, refer to the <commission structure of Digital Options>.
