Gold (XAUUSD) rebate: how it is calculated per lot

Gold (XAUUSD) is one of the most asked-about instruments for rebates - simply because gold spreads are usually wider than major FX pairs, so the rebate is often larger.

Why gold rebates are often higher

• Gold spreads and volatility are usually greater than EUR/USD and other majors.
• Brokers often pay a higher IB commission on gold, leaving more to return.
• Gold's high notional value makes per-lot rebates meaningful.

How to estimate

Monthly rebate ~ rebate per lot x lots x trades. Pick XAUUSD in the rebate calculator to estimate.
