HYCM Rebate Rates
The table below shows the cashback you receive through Rebate Gain, credited as monthly cash back. What you earn depends on two things: the instruments you trade and which account you hold.
Rates are fixed amounts in US dollars per standard lot, so you can work out your monthly return from your own volume without any guesswork.
Rebates by Account Type
| Asset class | Fixed | Classic | RAW |
|---|---|---|---|
| Forex | $5.20 per lot | $3.90 per lot | $3.90 per lot |
| Commodities | $6.50 per lot | $5.20 per lot | $5.20 per lot |
| Indices | $3.90 per lot | $3.25 per lot | $3.25 per lot |
| Stocks | $3.90 per lot | $3.25 per lot | $3.25 per lot |
| Cryptocurrencies | $9.75 per lot | $8.45 per lot | $8.45 per lot |
Rates are per standard lot, credited as monthly cash back. The Classic and RAW accounts earn the same rate on every asset class; the Fixed account pays more across the board.
What Is HYCM Cashback?
HYCM cashback is a share of the trading cost you pay, returned to you on every lot you trade. It is also called a rebate, and the two words mean the same thing.
It does not cost you anything extra. The broker pays a commission to its partners based on the volume their clients trade, and Rebate Gain returns the larger part of that to you. Your spread does not widen, your execution does not change, and nothing about your account is altered.
Every trade carries this cost regardless of how it ends. Whether a position closes in profit or at a loss, the spread is already spent. Cashback returns part of it either way.
Because it is tied to volume rather than to results, it rewards activity, not luck. A trader running 40 lots a month on forex under the fixed-spread rate is looking at $208 back over that month, without changing a single thing about how they trade.
Cashback is
- A rebate on the spread and commission you already pay
- Paid per lot, on winning and losing trades alike
- Funded from the broker's partner commission
- Paid by Rebate Gain as monthly cash back
Cashback is not
- A deposit bonus or a no-deposit bonus from the broker
- A reward limited to profitable trades
- An extra charge added to your spread
- Anything that changes your platform or conditions
How to Get Your Rebate
Setting it up takes a few minutes and does not change how you trade afterward.
- Register your HYCM account through Rebate Gain so your trading volume is linked to your rebate.
- Fund the account and trade as you normally would, on whichever account suits you.
- Your cashback accrues per lot and is paid as monthly cash back, tracked in your Rebate Gain dashboard.
- Withdraw your accumulated rebate to your preferred crypto wallet.
Rebate Gain currently pays in crypto: USDT and USDC across networks including Tron (TRC-20), BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20), Ethereum (ERC-20), Polygon and Solana, plus Bitcoin. Bank transfer and e-wallet payouts are coming soon. This is separate from how you fund your broker, so a fiat-only broker does not stop you receiving your rebate in crypto.

HYCM Overview
HYCM, short for Henyep Capital Markets, is a forex and CFD broker whose group traces its roots to 1977, which makes it one of the longest-established names a retail trader can use today. It is regulated by the FCA in the United Kingdom and the DFSA in Dubai, and it runs on MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, and the HYCM Trader platform. The broker keeps its range simple, with three accounts that all open from a low $20. The sections below set out its accounts, regulation, costs, funding, and platforms so you can judge whether it fits the way you trade.
HYCM Account Types
HYCM runs three account types, and they all open from the same low $20. What changes between them is the pricing model: the Fixed account uses fixed spreads, the Classic account uses variable spreads with no commission, and the RAW account uses raw spreads plus a commission per lot. All three carry leverage up to 1:1000.
| Account | Min. deposit | Platforms | Pricing model | Max leverage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fixed | $20 | MT4, MT5, HYCM Trader | Fixed spread, no commission | up to 1:1000 |
| Classic | $20 | MT4, MT5 | Variable spread, no commission | up to 1:1000 |
| RAW | $20 | MT4, MT5 | Raw spread + commission | up to 1:1000 |
Fixed Account
The Fixed account uses fixed spreads with no commission, and it opens from $20. A fixed spread does not widen when the market gets busy, so your cost stays predictable around news and in volatile sessions. It runs on MT4, MT5, and the HYCM Trader platform.
Advantages
- Low $20 minimum deposit
- Fixed spreads keep your cost predictable
- Also runs on the HYCM Trader platform
Disadvantages
- Fixed spreads are usually wider than variable spreads in calm markets
- No raw-spread option on this account
Classic Account
The Classic account uses variable spreads with no separate commission, opening from $20 on MT4 and MT5. The spread moves with the market, which usually means a tighter cost than a fixed spread in calm conditions. For a trader who wants standard pricing with one simple cost figure, it is a sensible default.
Advantages
- Low $20 minimum deposit
- Variable spreads with no commission to track
- Usually tighter than fixed spreads in calm markets
Disadvantages
- Spreads widen when the market gets volatile
- Not as tight as the RAW account for active traders
RAW Account
The RAW account narrows the spread toward the raw market price and charges a commission per lot instead, also from $20. It suits active traders who feel the cost on every trade. Confirm whether the commission is charged per side or per round turn before you trade, since that changes the headline number.
Advantages
- Raw spreads from near 0.0 pips
- Low $20 entry for a raw-spread account
- Usually cheaper for active, higher-volume trading
Disadvantages
- A commission applies on top of the spread
- Two cost components to track instead of one
Regulation & Safety
HYCM is regulated by the FCA in the United Kingdom and the DFSA in Dubai. Alongside that, its strongest point on safety is heritage: the Henyep group behind HYCM dates back to 1977, which is a track record very few brokers can match.
As with most international brokers, the protection that applies to you depends on the entity you register under. Open your client agreement, find the name of the contracting entity, and confirm which licence it sits under. That entity sets the rules for your balance, your leverage cap, and any compensation rights you may have.
FCA (United Kingdom)
HYCM Ltd holds authorisation from the UK Financial Conduct Authority. The FCA is one of the most rigorous regulators in the world, with strict capital, governance, and conduct requirements. Retail clients under the FCA entity get leverage capped at 1:30, negative balance protection, and eligibility for FSCS compensation up to 85,000 pounds.
DFSA (Dubai)
HYCM Capital Markets (DIFC) Limited is regulated by the Dubai Financial Services Authority, the regulator for firms based in the Dubai International Financial Centre. A DFSA licence requires the entity to meet the authority’s capital, client-money segregation, and conduct standards for operating from the DIFC.
Spreads, Commissions & Fees
HYCM gives you a choice of pricing model. The Fixed account charges a fixed spread with no commission. The Classic account uses variable spreads, again with no commission. The RAW account uses tighter raw spreads plus a commission per lot. Where a commission applies, check whether it is charged per side or per round turn, since that doubles the headline number.
HYCM spreads are not published in a single, easy-to-find live table, and any “from” figure is a best-case number seen in liquid hours rather than the average you should plan around. The reliable way to read your real cost on a pair is to watch it in the platform across a normal session.
Advantages
- A pricing model for most styles: fixed, variable, or raw plus commission
- No commission on the Fixed and Classic accounts
- Low $20 entry across all three accounts
Disadvantages
- Exact spread and commission figures are not published in one place
- Commission terms vary by account, so confirm before funding
Deposits & Withdrawals
HYCM supports the usual funding channels: bank cards, bank transfer, and e-wallets. The exact methods open to you, along with any minimums and processing times, depend on your region and the entity you register under, so confirm the current list inside your client portal before funding.
Two habits are worth keeping with any broker: withdraw back to the same method you funded with, since compliance teams usually require it, and run a small test withdrawal early to confirm the process and the real timeline before larger amounts are involved.
Advantages
- Standard card, bank transfer and e-wallet options
- Methods and minimums shown in your client portal
Disadvantages
- Exact methods and any crypto support depend on your region and entity
- Confirm minimums and timings in the portal before funding
Leverage & Instruments
Leverage on HYCM accounts reaches up to 1:1000, but the cap you actually receive depends on the entity and region you register under. Under the FCA in the UK, retail clients are capped at 1:30 by the regulator, and the DFSA in Dubai sets its own limits; the higher figures apply to clients under HYCM’s other regional entities. As with most brokers, the top leverage is for major forex pairs; metals, indices, and crypto carry lower limits.
On the instrument side, HYCM covers the main CFD asset classes across its platforms. The full, current list is available inside the terminal once you open an account; confirm any specific market you plan to trade before funding.
| Asset class | What you can trade |
|---|---|
| Forex | Major, minor and exotic currency pairs |
| Metals | Gold, silver and other metals |
| Energies | Crude oil and energy products |
| Indices | Major global stock indices |
| Share CFDs | CFDs on listed company shares |
| Cryptocurrencies | Popular crypto pairs (where available) |
Advantages
- High leverage available where the entity allows it
- Covers forex, metals, energies, indices, shares and crypto
- One account can span several asset classes
Disadvantages
- FCA and DFSA entities cap retail leverage by regulation
- Instruments are CFDs, giving price exposure, not ownership
Trading Platforms
HYCM runs on MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, and its own HYCM Trader platform and app.
MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5
These are the industry standard for retail forex and CFD trading. If you already run custom expert advisors, indicators, or a chart setup in MT4, it carries across to HYCM without rebuilding. MT5 adds more timeframes, a built-in economic calendar, and broader asset coverage. Both run on all three account types.
HYCM Trader
HYCM Trader is the broker’s own platform and mobile app, built for account management, monitoring, and order placement away from the desk. The Fixed account also runs on it. Confirm the current feature set in the app store listing, since mobile apps are updated often.
Demo accounts
Demo accounts are available on MetaTrader so you can test a strategy or get used to the platform before funding a live account.
Advantages
- MT4, MT5 and the in-house HYCM Trader all supported
- Existing MetaTrader EAs and setups carry over
- Own app for trading on the move
Disadvantages
- No cTrader for traders who prefer that platform
- The HYCM Trader app suits monitoring more than heavy order management
