CLIENT BONUS POLICY
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
This Client Bonus Policy (the "Policy") is publicly available and forms part of the Company’s legal documentation. The Bonus Program is applicable exclusively to Clients who have been directly contacted and informed by the Company or its authorized representatives that they are eligible to participate. Upon such notification, the Client is deemed to have been made aware of this Policy and is therefore expected to review its terms in full. Participation in the Bonus Program following notification shall constitute automatic acceptance of this Policy. It is the Client’s responsibility to consult the publicly accessible version of the Policy, and no claim of ignorance or unawareness shall exempt the Client from the obligations and conditions herein.
This Policy outlines the terms and conditions applicable to promotional bonus programs offered by YWO (CM) Ltd (the "Company"), a licensed International Brokerage and Clearing House incorporated in the Union of the Comoros under number HT00225012 and regulated by the Mwali International Services Authority under License No. BFX2025026.
This Policy should be read together with the Client Agreement, Terms of Business, Risk Disclosure Notice, AML/CFT procedures, and any campaign-specific Bonus Terms issued by the Company from time to time.
By participating in any Bonus Program, each client (the "Client") confirms acceptance of:
- this Policy; and
- the applicable campaign-specific Bonus Terms.
The Company reserves the right to determine eligibility for any Bonus Program in accordance with its internal policies, regulatory obligations, and risk-management procedures.
Specific operational details applicable to a particular Bonus Program, including but not limited to eligibility requirements, minimum deposit thresholds, bonus amounts, trading volume requirements, withdrawal conditions, validity periods, stop-out levels, and campaign limitations, shall be set out in the relevant campaign-specific Bonus Terms.
Campaign-specific Bonus Terms are supplemental to this Policy and shall be interpreted together with it. In the event of any conflict, inconsistency, or ambiguity between this Policy and any campaign-specific Bonus Terms, this Policy shall prevail.
1. PURPOSE OF THE BONUS
Bonus Programs are promotional initiatives designed to support client trading activity by providing promotional trading credit or other trading-related incentives, subject to applicable terms and conditions.
Unless expressly stated otherwise by the Company:
- bonuses are non-withdrawable;
- bonuses may only be used for trading purposes;
- bonuses do not constitute cash value;
- bonuses do not represent investment advice, portfolio management, guaranteed returns, or guaranteed profitability.
All Bonus Programs are offered at the sole discretion of the Company and may only be made available to selected clients, jurisdictions, account types or Introducing Brokers (“IBs”).
Nothing in this Policy obliges the Company to provide any Bonus Program to any client.
2. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
To participate in any Bonus Program, clients must satisfy all eligibility requirements established by the Company, including any conditions set out in the applicable campaign-specific Bonus Terms.
The Company may require, including but not limited to:
- successful completion of KYC and customer verification procedures;
- compliance with the Company’s AML/CFT framework;
- successful account approval;
- completion of minimum funding requirements;
- acceptance of applicable Bonus Terms during deposit process;
- eligibility based on jurisdiction, campaign type, account classification, or referral structure.
The Company reserves the right to reject, withhold, revoke, suspend, or restrict participation in any Bonus Program where:
- eligibility requirements are not met;
- abusive, fraudulent, manipulative, or suspicious activity is identified;
- regulatory, legal, or compliance concerns arise; or
- participation would otherwise create operational, financial, reputational, or regulatory risk for the Company.
3. BONUS APPLICATION
Bonuses may be assigned through one of the following mechanisms:
- Automatically, via predefined IB settings within the CRM.
- Manually, by a Business Development or Support Manager in accordance with agreed terms.
- Voluntarily, by the Client selecting and activating the Bonus directly in CRM.
All Bonus Programs are private offers extended solely to clients under specific IBs and are not publicly available.
4. TRADING REQUIREMENTS AND WITHDRAWAL CONDITIONS
To become eligible to withdraw any profits generated from the Bonus, the Client must:
- Execute at least 3 standard lots of qualifying trades (excluding arbitrage, hedged, or abusive transactions);
- Meet all risk and compliance requirements as per the Company’s Trading Terms;
- Maintain the minimum deposit in the account until the lot requirement is completed.
- The Bonus itself is never withdrawable.
If a withdrawal request is submitted before the volume requirement is met:
- The Bonus will be revoked;
- Any profits derived from the Bonus may be cancelled;
- The Company may, at its discretion, process only the original deposit amount.
5. ABUSE PREVENTION AND PROHIBITED CONDUCT
The Company maintains internal monitoring and control mechanisms to detect and prevent abusive practices, including but not limited to the analysis of shared IP addresses, devices, and behavioural trading patterns.
Unless explicitly approved in writing by the Company, only one Bonus offer may be claimed per household, IP address, device, or shared environment. Any attempt to circumvent this limitation shall be considered a violation of this Policy.
The following practices are strictly forbidden and will result in immediate disqualification from the Bonus program and account sanctions:
- Creation of duplicate or linked accounts to receive multiple Bonuses;
- Coordinated hedging, mirroring, or offsetting positions across accounts;
- Latency arbitrage, price manipulation, or automated systems used to extract risk-free gains;
- Withdrawal of the initial deposit before completion of required trading volume;
- Misrepresentation, identity fraud, or use of the same IP/device across multiple accounts to obtain multiple Bonus entitlements.
Where prohibited behaviour or violation of this policy is detected, the Company may:
- Remove the Bonus and any bonus-related profits;
- Suspend or permanently close the Client’s trading account;
- Forfeit any earned Introducing Broker commissions linked to the account;
- Report the conduct to regulatory or legal authorities, where applicable.
6. RISK WARNING AND DISCLAIMERS
Trading leveraged financial instruments involves significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors.
Participation in Bonus Programs may increase trading exposure and market risk. Clients should carefully assess their financial circumstances, trading objectives, level of experience, and risk tolerance before participating in any Bonus Program.
The Company does not guarantee profitability, trading performance, or protection from losses.
Nothing contained in any Bonus Program shall constitute:
- investment advice;
- investment recommendation;
- portfolio management;
- financial planning services; or
- a guarantee of trading performance.
Clients remain solely responsible for their trading decisions, positions, and activities.
7. LEGAL DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Participation in Bonus Programs involves significant trading risk. The use of trading credit increases exposure and the possibility of financial loss. Clients are urged to carefully assess their financial situation and risk tolerance. The Company provides no guarantees regarding performance, and the Bonus must not be interpreted as investment advice.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall not be liable for any losses, including indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, loss of profit or opportunity, or technical delays associated with Bonus use. All bonuses are provided "as is," and the Company may revise, suspend, or withdraw any Bonus offer at its sole discretion without notice.
Any decisions made by the Company under this Policy shall be exercised reasonably, in good faith, and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
8. REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
The Company strictly adheres to applicable AML, CFT, and financial promotion standards. This Bonus:
- Is not intended for clients in jurisdictions where such promotions are restricted;
- Is not marketed as an inducement to trade irresponsibly;
- Is offered at the sole discretion of the Company, subject to full regulatory compliance.
Clients are solely responsible for ensuring that participation in any Bonus Program is lawful in their jurisdiction of residence.
9. COMPLAINTS
Any complaints, disputes, or concerns relating to Bonus Programs shall be submitted and handled in accordance with the Company’s Complaints Handling Policy, available on the Company’s website. The Company shall review complaints fairly, reasonably, and in accordance with applicable regulatory obligations and internal procedures.
10. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
This Policy shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Union of the Comoros. Any disputes arising out of or in connection with the Bonus program shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Comoros.
