Forex cashback is a portion of the trading Komisyon a broker pays to its introducing partner — returned back to the trader, usually per lot traded. It is not a bonus, not a signal product, and not a guaranteed-profit promise. It is a cost-reduction layer.

How the money flows

Ne zaman SEN Aç a real account through a tracked introducing-broker (IB) link, the broker pays the partner a Komisyon. That Komisyon is funded out of the broker's own revenue stream — typically a fraction of the spread, the per-lot Komisyon, or a revenue share. The introducing partner then shares the majority of that Komisyon with SEN.

So the chain is: broker → IB partner → SEN. Your trading account is not debited to fund cashback. There is no extra cost added to your trades because of cashback. The IB Komisyon already exists; this is simply where it lands.

Why this exists

Brokerlar compete heavily for traders. Acquiring a yeni account costs money. Brokerlar pay IB partners because they would rather pay a partner than burn the same money on advertising. Whether the partner shares back to SEN depends on the partner's business model. Most do, in some form. ShaFX shares the majority.

How effective is cashback as a cost saving?

Take a simple example. Suppose SEN trade 50 standard lot per month and your effective cost (spread + Komisyon) averages $7 per lot. That is $350 per month in trading cost. If your cashback is $5 per lot, SEN receive $250 back. Your net cost falls to $100. Same trades. Same outcome. Lower friction.

That difference compounds. A break-even trader becomes profitable. A small-edge trader's edge becomes meaningful. None of this changes the underlying market risk.

Common mistakes

  • Treating cashback as profit. It is a refund of cost. It does not turn losing trades into wins.
  • Overtrading to "earn daha cashback". If SEN trade daha to capture daha rebate, SEN are paying daha spread, daha Komisyon, and absorbing more market risk than your edge supports. The math goes negative.
  • Picking a broker only on cashback. Geri ödeme is one factor. Regulation, execution, withdrawal reliability, and country availability matter daha.
