Candle Key pays introducing brokers a share of the spread and commission their clients generate — with sub-IB tiers, monthly payouts and a dashboard that reconciles every attributed trade.
Approval is subject to compliance review. Promotional claims about returns are not permitted.

The model
Paid on activity, not on promises.
Revenue share is a percentage of the spread and commission a client actually generates. It is not a fee charged to the client, and it does not depend on whether the client wins or loses.
What the percentage applies to
If a client generates $100 of spread and commission in a month and your tier is 35%, your commission is $35. Zero accounts include the explicit commission; Standard and Micro include the spread markup.
Negative months
If a client generates no revenue in a month, there is no negative carry. Commission is calculated on realised revenue only; it is not clawed back for market losses.
Attribution is locked
A client is attributed once, at registration, via your link or invite. It cannot be reassigned after verification, which prevents poaching between partners.

Tiers
The more you build, the better the split.
| Tier | Active clients | Revenue share | Sub-IB override | Support |

FAQ
Partner questions.
How is commission calculated?
Revenue share is a percentage of the spread and commission generated by attributed clients in the calendar month. Zero accounts contribute their explicit commission; Standard, Micro and KIWAMI contribute the spread markup. It is not charged to the client.
When and how am I paid?
Monthly, within 10 business days of month end, once the balance is above $100. UPI, bank transfer, international wire and USDT are supported. Statements are downloadable from the dashboard.
Can I have sub-IBs?
Yes from the Growth tier. Recruit IBs under your partner code and earn a 5–7.5% override on their book, up to three levels deep. Sub-IB clients remain attributed to the introducing partner.
Can I also refer individual clients?
Yes. Client referrals and the IB programme can coexist, but a client cannot be attributed twice. Choose the route before the client verifies; attribution is locked afterwards.
Do you offer CPA or hybrid deals?
Hybrid and CPA structures are available to Master-tier partners by negotiation, based on volume, jurisdiction and compliance history. Revenue share remains the default.
What marketing material can I use?
Only assets from the dashboard’s marketing library or copy approved by your partner manager. Performance claims, guaranteed returns and unlicensed advice are prohibited and can terminate the agreement.
