<= 300,000 0.020 5.00
300,001 – 3,000,000 0.0195 5.00
3,000,001 – 20,000,000 0.019 5.00
20,000,001 – 100,000,000 0.0185 5.00
100,000,000 0.018 4.65

Example

If you execute 500,000 US Share CFDs in a month, your Euro Pacific Commission would be USD 4,800:
300,000 CFDs at USD 0.010 = USD 3,000
200,000 CFDs at USD 0.009 = USD 1800

 

Notes:

  1. Volume tiers are applied based on monthly cumulative trade volume summed across US Share CFDs at the time of the trade. European Share CFD trades will not count towards the monthly volume (and vice versa). The above commissions include all fees and are applied on a marginal basis for a given calendar month.

  • All exchange and regulatory fees included.
  • VAT, also referred to as consumption tax, goods and services tax, where applicable, will be separately applied for eligible services.
  • Modified orders will be treated as the cancellation and replacement of an existing order with a new order. On certain exchanges, this may have the effect of subjecting modified orders to commission minimums as if they were new orders. For example, if an order for 200 contracts is submitted and 100 contracts execute, then you modify the order and another 100 contracts execute, a commission minimum would be applied to both 100 contract orders. Orders that persist overnight will be considered a new order for the purposes of determining order minimums.

Example

ZAR 300,000 Value CFD = ZAR 720

 

Notes:

  1. The CFD tiers are based on the Monthly Trade Value as expressed in EUR. When calculating the Monthly Trade Value in EUR, Euro Pacific converts any non-EUR denominated CFD trade to its EUR-equivalent using the most recent exchange rate. In this way, stock trades denominated in non-EUR currencies will be counted towards the monthly value for commission breaks.
  2. The minimum fees are additive. For example, an order resulting in a single execution carries a minimum fee of CZK 140. An order executed in two tranches carries a minimum fee of CZK 280.

  • Commissions apply to all order types. In addition a surcharge is applied to Euro Pacific Algo orders (VWAP, DarkIce, etc.) for CFDs on European shares as follows:
    • GBP denominated 0.03%
    • EUR denominated 0.02%
    • CHF denominated 0.05%
    • EUR (Finnish only) denominated 0.05%
    • SEK and DKK denominated 0.20%
  • All exchange and regulatory fees included.
  • VAT, also referred to as consumption tax, goods and services tax, where applicable, will be separately applied for eligible services.
  • Modified orders will be treated as the cancellation and replacement of an existing order with a new order. On certain exchanges, this may have the effect of subjecting modified orders to commission minimums as if they were new orders. For example, if an order for 200 contracts is submitted and 100 contracts execute, then you modify the order and another 100 contracts execute, a commission minimum would be applied to both 100 contract orders. Orders that persist overnight will be considered a new order for the purposes of determining order minimums.

Our tight spreads and substantial liquidity are a result of combining quotation streams from 16 of the world’s largest foreign exchange dealers which constitute more than 60%1 of the market share in the global interbank market. This results in displayed quotes as small as 0.1 PIP. Euro Pacific passes through the prices that it receives and charges a separate low commission. We do this in the interest of providing a transparent pricing structure instead of marking up our quotes and charging nothing in commissions as is the practice with many forex brokers. Tiers are based on the combined Monthly Trade Value of Forex CFD and Spot Forex trades.

  • Commissions apply to all order types.
  • All exchange and regulatory fees included.
  • Euro Pacific’s Tiered commission models are not intended to be a direct pass-through of exchange and third-party fees and rebates. Costs passed on to clients in Euro Pacific’s Tiered commission schedule may be greater than the costs paid by Euro Pacific to the relevant exchange, regulator, clearinghouse or third party. For example, Euro Pacific may receive volume discounts that are not passed on to clients. Likewise, rebates passed on to clients by Euro Pacific may be less than the rebates Euro Pacific receives from the relevant market. For example, Euro Pacific may receive enhanced rebate payments for exceeding volume thresholds on particular markets, but typically will not pass these enhancements directly to clients.
  • Modified orders will be treated as the cancellation and replacement of an existing order with a new order. On certain exchanges, this may have the effect of subjecting modified orders to commission minimums as if they were new orders. For example, if an order for 200 shares is submitted and 100 shares execute, then you modify the order and another 100 shares execute, a commission minimum would be applied to both 100 share orders. Orders that persist overnight will be considered a new order for the purposes of determining order minimums.
