AvaTrade Partner Code 128979: What It Really Does

Every few weeks someone asks me about partner codes. Same question every time: do you get discounted fees or free trading?

No. AvaTrade has no commission on forex trades. You pay the spread. That's the cost. A partner code has no impact on spreads.

The code 128979 activates the bonus program. Bonus money added to your account based on deposit size. Simple as that.

Bonus amounts?

A $1,000 deposit gets you $200.

Deposit $2,000 for $400 bonus.

Deposits between $5,000 and $9,999 get $1,000.

Top tier is $14,000 on deposits over $100,000. That's for serious capital.

UK traders funding in pounds start at £160 on £800. Scales up to £11,200 maximum.

Account minimum is $100. Minimum for any bonus is $1,000.

Where to enter the code

When you're signing up. After you enter your phone number, there's a small link saying "Have a Partner Code?". Click the arrow. The field expands. Type **128979**.

People overlook it constantly because it's hidden.

If the system rejects it, don't panic. Complete your registration. Message your account manager before you deposit. Ask them to add code 128979. Standard practice for them.

Bonus withdrawal conditions

A trading volume condition applies.

About 10,000 units for every dollar of bonus. A $200 bonus means trading 2,000,000 units before that $200 unlocks. Slower if you're trading micro lots. Regular trading gets you there sooner than you'd expect.

The deposit belongs to you. Access it whenever you need. Bonus funds remain locked until volume is met.

Something useful to understand: the bonus adds to your available margin even when locked. Allows for slightly larger trades. For someone still learning, that buffer can keep you in the avatrade partner code 128979 game long enough to figure things out.
