Tickmill Bonus – What’s the catch?

As Seychelles-based Tickmill Ltd is not subject to regulatory restrictions on bonuses, promotions and prize games, the broker offers clients outside Europe the option to take advantage of several such offers. But like Tickmill ‘s core services, the promotions appear to be aimed primarily at active and high-volume traders.

No deposit bonus

New Tickmill Ltd customers can sign up for a “Welcome Account,” which includes a 30 USD initial no-deposit-bonus. The Welcome Account has identical trading conditions to the live Pro account type and is available for trading for 60 days from the day of opening. After that it will be accessible for an additional 14 days to claim the earned profit. The Initial deposit cannot be withdrawn or transferred. A minimum of 30 USD and a maximum of 100 USD of profit can be transferred from the Welcome Account to the Client’s Wallet held with Tickmill Ltd. To withdraw your profits from this bonus account you must register a Live Account with a minimum deposit of 100 USD. This is effectively a boosted Demo account that allows you to make a small profit.

Monthly competition

Other promotions offered by Tickmill Ltd are in the form of competitions in which active and successful traders can measure forces with their peers and make additional profits. These customers can participate in the monthly “Trader of the Month” competition with a prize of 1,000 USD. The minimum equity of a participating account is 500 USD or equivalent in other base currency. By accepting the prize, the Winner agrees to participate in a written interview and give Tickmill consent to publish their trading account history.

Guess the NFP

“Tickmill’s NFP Machine” is another way to measure your trading instinct. Each participant has a chance to win up to 500 US dollars if they can guess how the monthly statistics from the US for Non-Farm Payroll will affect the price of a particular instrument. All Participants who guess the exact price of the respective instrument will be credited a 500 USD prize to their Wallet. In the event that no one guesses the exact price, the Participant with the closest prediction will be credited a 200 USD prize to his Wallet.

Cash rebates

High-volume traders could take advantage of a Rebate promotion called “Trade More, Get More”.

The promotion is available only to new and existing clients of Tickmill Ltd (Seychelles) and Tickmill Asia Ltd. No bonuses or any other promotion will be available to the participants while this Promotion is running.
