How do I get the rebate?
What is a EC Markets rebate?
EC Markets rebate and EC Markets cashback are two names for one thing: part of the trading fee you already paid is returned to you. Through Backcom VN the maximum at EC Markets is $38 per lot.
It is not profit and does not depend on whether you win or lose — it is calculated on traded volume. Nor does it widen your spread or slow your fills: it comes out of the partner commission the broker already pays, not out of your costs.
The general mechanism is explained in what a forex rebate is.
Overview
EC Markets (ECMarkets) is a forex & CFD broker operating an ECN model with low spreads, competitive fees and support for MT4 & MT5. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in London (United Kingdom), it operates across multiple regulatory jurisdictions (including the FCA). ECMarkets rebates (Backcom ECMarkets) let you recover a large share of your trading costs on every lot you trade at EC Markets — automatically, paid daily, up to $38/lot through Backcom VN.
EC Markets was founded in 2012 and is headquartered in London (United Kingdom), with offices in Limassol and Dubai. It operates an ECN model with low spreads and competitive fees. The broker supports two popular platforms, MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5, and offers a range of products: Forex, indices, oil, metals (gold, silver) and cryptocurrency CFDs.
EC Markets is regulated by several authorities worldwide, including the FCA (United Kingdom, FRN 571881), ASIC (Australia) and FSCA (South Africa) — providing a transparent trading environment. With several account types (standard STD, Cent for smaller balances and low-spread ECN-UV), traders can choose an option that suits their strategy.
When you register or transfer your introducing broker (IB) to Backcom VN, you receive a large share of the commission back as rebates — without affecting the broker's spreads, leverage or trading conditions. This directly reduces trading costs and is particularly useful for gold/Forex traders, scalpers, EA users and high-volume traders.

Open a EC Markets account and start earning
This broker has 3 signup links with different spreads and rebates. A higher rebate comes with a wider spread — pick the one that fits how you trade.
| Link type | Spread | Code | Rebate | Sign up |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| No Markup | Normal | $18/lot | Sign up | |
| Markup 1 | +1 pip | $28/lot | Sign up | |
| Markup 2 Highest rebate | +2 pips | $38/lot | Sign up |
The extra rebate and the extra spread largely cancel out, so the bigger number is not automatically cheaper. Trade often and hold briefly and the low-spread link usually wins; hold longer and it is the other way round.

How the rebate is calculated
Total rebate = lots traded × rebate per lot
At up to $38 per lot, trading 10 lots in a month returns $380. At 50 lots that is $1,900 a month, or $22,800 across a year — whether those trades won or lost.

Common questions
01 What are ECMarkets rebates?
Rebates are payments returned to traders based on trading volume when their EC Markets account is registered through Backcom VN or transferred to Backcom VN as their introducing broker (IB). The rebate comes from the IB commission paid by the broker, not investment returns.
02 What is the highest ECMarkets rebate rate?
Up to $38/lot (through the Markup 2 link), paid daily. No Markup ($18/lot) and Markup 1 ($28/lot) links are also available, so you can choose the option that suits your strategy.
03 Do rebates affect spreads or trading conditions?
No. Rebates return a share of the IB commission — spreads, leverage, execution speed and all trading conditions at EC Markets remain completely unchanged.
04 When are rebates paid?
Daily, after trades are closed and EC Markets completes reconciliation. You can track payments transparently through the Backcom App/dashboard.
05 Can I receive rebates if I already have an EC Markets account?
Yes. Transfer your partner/IB to Backcom VN; depending on the broker's policy, you may need to create a new trading account or contact support for reconciliation.
06 Can I receive rebates if I register directly with EC Markets?
No. Accounts opened directly, without using one of Backcom VN's three partner links (U4J3H, 8JKS7 or 8M5BL), will not qualify for rebates. The markup tier is fixed by the link used at registration, so choose the correct link from the start.
07 Which trading platforms does EC Markets use?
MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and MetaTrader 5 (MT5), with an ECN model and low spreads.
08 How can I track my rebates?
Through the Backcom App and dashboard — transparent statistics for each day and each trade show exactly how much you receive and when.
