If you’re looking to earn more by partnering with a trusted global broker, you’ve likely come across two popular programs: Introducing Brokers (IBs) and Affiliates.

At Exness, both offer powerful earning potential, but they work in very different ways. So what’s the difference between IBs and Affiliates?

Introducing Brokers (IBs): The trusted connector

Are you a trader, a mentor, or someone with deep roots in the trading community? If yes, the Exness Introducing Broker program might be your ideal path.

As an IB, you refer new traders to Exness—but it doesn’t stop there. You support them, and answer their questions. Think of it as relationship-driven client acquisition.

The more clients you sign up, the greater the income. This is called a revenue share model, and with Exness, it can reach up to 40% of our revenue from your clients’ trading activity. This model typically offers lifetime payouts, based on the clients' trading volume, providing a steady, long-term income stream.

This model is perfect for:

  • Traders with a strong network
  • Community managers
  • Coaches and mentors
  • Finance-savvy entrepreneurs

How to become an Exness IB

  1. Register/sign up and get your partner link
  2. Refer clients to Exness and support them with their journey
  3. Qualify for higher commission on clients trades as you refer more clients through your growing network
  4. Get daily commission payments based on your referred clients' trading activities

Basically, when someone clicks your partner link, then registers for an Exness trading account, completes their first-time deposit, and starts trading, you will earn a commission based on their trading volumes.

Affiliates: The digital rainmakers

If you’re more into marketing, content creation, or running ads, the Exness Affiliate Program is where you’ll thrive.

Affiliates earn through the CPA model (Cost Per Action). You bring in new clients through your website, blog, YouTube channel, or social media. Once they deposit and start trading, you get paid.

At Exness, the payout is among the highest in the industry—up to $1,850 per active trader. These are generally one-time, fixed high payouts based on clients' first-time deposit amounts and country.

This program suits:

  • Digital marketing experts
  • PPC and media buyers
  • Influencers and content creators
  • Affiliate networks & ad agencies
  • Webmasters 
  • Broker listing sites

It’s a fast-paced model built on performance. You don’t need to build long-term relationships, just know how to drive traffic.

How to get started as an affiliate

1. Register as an Exness affiliate.

2. Get your partner link.

3. Promote Exness to prospective clients using your link.

4. Start earning commissions for every unique trader who joins via your link, deposits and starts trading.

To fully understand the trading experience, every affiliate gets an Exness trading account by default, but they are not obliged to trade. Affiliates can start promoting and making money without ever making a single trade.

So, which should you choose?

  • Go IB if you enjoy working with people and already have a network of traders. It’s about guidance, trust, and long-term income.
  • Go Affiliate if you’re focused on scale, traffic, and quick wins through digital strategies.

Some partners even do both—growing their reach while nurturing client relationships for the long term.
