GAIN Affiliates is an affiliate program that is dedicated to sponsoring spread betting and Forex trading brands. Currently, the brands that this affiliate program sponsors are: City Index and Forex.com. The affiliate program was created in early 2021. However, its brands have been operating for a longer period of time. Both of them are regulated and licensed to provide the customers with legal trading opportunities. Some of the jurisdictions in which these brands work are: United Kingdom, United States, Cayman Islands, Canada and Australia.

Each brand counts with its list of excluded countries that the webmasters may consult in case they are interested in joining GAIN Affiliates. This is crucial due to the fact that this affiliate program does not affect partners that reside in territories that are banned by the brands. It does not matter if the marketer can provide proof that he can allure new customers from authorized jurisdictions.

In addition to that, not all types of traffic are permitted. For starters, the applicants must be the owners of a website. If the applicant does not have the ownership of a webpage, his application will be immediately denied. It is a non-negotiable condition on this affiliate program.

This rule prevents social media influencers from submitting an application to this affiliate program. On top of that, the website owned by the applicant must be focused on spread betting or Forex trading. Otherwise, it will be deemed unsuitable content and thus, the application will be denied instantly.

As for the commission structures, GAIN Affiliates focuses on offering CPA deals to all the accepted promoters. This is because this affiliate program focuses on trading brands rather than betting platforms where a revenue shares model may fit perfectly. The CPA deals are automatically activated for all partners. Nonetheless, it has predetermined requirements that all the marketers must fulfill in order to receive their payments.

To receive CPA payouts, the referral must be a new client, deposit a minimum of $210 and have closed at least 10 trades. Once the customer has done so, the payment is accrued directly to the affiliate’s account.

Additionally, there are 3 compensation levels, ranging from silver to platinum. The level of compensation received by the webmaster will be determined by the total number of new clients that fulfill all the requirements.

To reach the highest level, the marketer must refer a minimum of 51 new clients in a given month. It is worth mentioning that leveling up on the compensation chart is important since the marketing tools available for the lower levels is limited, making it more difficult for the partners to draw the attention of new clients to any of the brands sponsored by GAIN Affiliates.

The payouts are sent once a month, after the affiliate has accumulated at least $500 on his affiliate account. At the moment, the only payment method available on GAIN Affiliates is Bank Wire Transfers. No other banking option can be used to withdraw any earnings from this affiliate program.
