Detailed Introduction to XM and Rebate Overview

Cashback Island offers you rebate services for XM.

As an Introducing Broker (IB), Cashback Island introduces clients to XM. In return, XM rewards the IB based on the client’s trading volume. The IB then shares a portion of this reward with the client, which is known as a rebate.

Every time you trade using an XM account opened through Cashback Island, you will receive a rebate.

The process for opening a rebate account is the same as opening a regular account—just a simple user registration is needed!

Introduction to XM

Since its establishment in 2009, XM has rapidly emerged as a leading global online trading broker, thanks to its transparent, fair trading environment and technological innovation.

As a financial service provider regulated by top authorities in multiple countries, XM holds compliance licenses in places like Cyprus (CySEC), Australia (ASIC), and Dubai (DFSA), and has won industry awards such as “Best European Forex Broker” and “Most Trusted Broker” for many consecutive years.

XM offers clients over 1,000 trading products, covering forex, stock indices, commodities, cryptocurrencies, and stock CFDs, and achieves millisecond-level order execution through MetaTrader 4/5 and its proprietary platform, with an execution rate as high as 99.35%.

Currently, XM has over 5 million registered clients worldwide, covering 196 countries, with an average monthly trading volume exceeding 2.4 billion transactions.

Fund Security

To further protect client funds, XM has implemented strict fund segregation measures. All client funds are kept completely separate from the company’s operational funds and are held in independent trust accounts.

This segregation mechanism not only complies with international financial regulatory standards but also effectively prevents the company’s operational risks from affecting client funds, ensuring the safety and independence of client assets.

The company adheres to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and regularly publishes financial reports audited by independent third parties.

These audits are conducted by world-renowned accounting firms, ensuring the authenticity and reliability of XM’s financial data.

Flexible High Leverage Mechanism

XM’s leverage system stands out with its “dynamic tiered” design, which automatically adjusts the maximum leverage based on the investor’s account equity.

For example, when a user’s funds are between $5 and $40,000, they can enjoy leverage up to 1:1000. This design meets the high-return needs of small-scale investors while reducing the risk exposure for larger amounts of capital through tiered levels.

Additionally, for specific commodities like gold and crude oil, XM sets separate leverage rules. For instance, gold trading can have leverage up to 1000x, while crude oil, due to its higher price volatility, has a leverage limit of 66.7x.

Users can adjust their leverage at any time through the backend without waiting for approval, significantly enhancing operational flexibility.

Account Equity Range (USD) Maximum Leverage
5-40,000 1:1000
40,001-80,000 1:500
80,001-200,000 1:200
Over 200,001 1:100

Community Trading Ecosystem

XM’s community trading and strategy copy functions integrate the advantages of social interaction and automated trading, providing efficient and flexible participation channels for investors of all levels.

Its community trading feature allows users to copy the strategies of top traders in real-time. Through a diversified signal provider screening mechanism, investors can select suitable copy targets based on risk appetite, historical performance, and trading style, while retaining full control over fund allocation ratios and leverage settings.

The strategy copy function further enhances risk management, for example, by setting custom stop-loss thresholds that automatically terminate copying when losses exceed a specified level. It also provides a highly transparent real-time monitoring dashboard to track the volatility and win rate of strategy providers.

Furthermore, XM’s unique “dual incentive model” not only allows strategy followers to reduce their learning curve through copying but also enables strategy providers to earn up to 50% in performance fees, forming a benign interactive ecosystem.

To ensure user experience, XM integrates MT4/MT5 platform technology, coupled with a minimum deposit of $150 and multi-national regulatory protection (such as CySEC, FSC), balancing accessibility and security.
