Risk warning: Trading carries a high risk of losing money, especially with leveraged products such as CFDs. A bonus does not reduce that risk. Only deposit what you can afford to lose.

The catch
Bonus is non-withdrawable credit only and cannot be converted to cash. There is no turnover/lot target because the credit is never cashable; its only value is added trading margin. CRITICAL: every withdrawal of real funds (including profits) destroys bonus credit proportionally via Withdrawal Amount x (Total Bonus / Total Account Balance), so extracting profit progressively dismantles the bonus margin.
How to claim
- Open a live Standard or Raw Spread account on MT4 or MT5 with IC Markets Global (Raw Trading Ltd). cTrader accounts do not qualify, and you must not have funded an IC account before.
- Complete identity verification.
- Make a deposit (the first deposit earns a 100% match up to USD 1,000, later deposits earn 50%).
- Check the client dashboard for the bonus credit. IC may apply it automatically or manually, so activate it there if it has not been added.
Full review
IC Markets Global (Raw Trading Ltd, regulated in Seychelles, now trading under the shorter brand name IC) gives a 100% match on your first deposit, up to USD 1,000, and a 50% match on every deposit after that, up to a combined cap of USD 25,000 in bonus credit.
Only new clients qualify: you must not have registered a trading account before, or you must have registered one without ever funding it. The bonus applies to live Standard and Raw Spread accounts on MetaTrader 4 and 5. cTrader accounts are excluded under clause 3.1 of the official terms.
The credit is added to your account to increase usable margin, and the terms say IC may apply it automatically or manually at its discretion. The catch is that the bonus is credit only. You cannot withdraw it or convert it to cash, and each bonus tranche is valid for 60 calendar days from the date of its deposit.
Any time you withdraw real funds, a proportional share of the bonus is removed (Withdrawal Amount x Total Bonus / Total Account Balance), and the whole bonus disappears if your real balance hits zero. There is no published lot or turnover target to clear, so the value comes from extra margin rather than a cashable reward.
Profits earned while trading with the bonus are yours to withdraw. Eligibility covers most regions but excludes residents of the United States, Canada, New Zealand, Iran, and North Korea, and the offer is not available to fund managers or MAM/PAMM account users.
The official terms leave the minimum qualifying deposit blank, so a USD 50 minimum reported by third-party listings is unconfirmed.
Pros
- +High overall cap of $25,000 in bonus credit

Cons
- −Bonus credit itself is never withdrawable
- −First-deposit match is capped at $1,000, so most of the $25,000 cap comes from 50% reloads
- −Each bonus tranche expires 60 days after its deposit
- −Withdrawing real funds proportionally removes the bonus
- −New clients only, and cTrader accounts are excluded
- −Excludes US, Canada, New Zealand, Iran, North Korea and MAM/PAMM users
