Cost Per Action (CPA) is an online advertising pricing model where Affiliate partners get paid a one-time fixed commission as a reward for each new and unique client they refer to the platform.
CPA commissions are based on the first time deposit (FTD) amounts made by the referred clients.
How CPA payouts work
You share your partner (referral) link.
A new and unique client registers via your link.
The client makes a first time deposit (FTD).
Your CPA payout is determined by the client’s CPA FTD value and CPA Tier (and may vary by the client’s country of residence).
CPA payouts are issued only when all required conditions are met (CPA is performance-based and available for residents from specific countries).
What is CPA FTD?
CPA FTD stands for First Time Deposit. It is calculated as the cumulative sum of deposits made within 24 hours after the initial first deposit.
This value is used to determine the payout for CPA partners based on CPA Tiers.
What are CPA Tiers?
Within the CPA scheme, partners are paid a one-time fixed commission reward for referred clients that have an FTD value equal to $1 or more and have fulfilled all qualifying criteria.
The payout table is segmented into CPA Tiers based on the value of the FTD and the client’s country of residence. You can review the CPA payout table and the Commission plan in your partner account.
Qualification requirements for CPA
To qualify for CPA payouts, Affiliates must reach predefined thresholds for the quality and effectiveness of their referred traffic, based on an assessment by PrimeXBT’s Machine Learning (ML) algorithm.
The assessment can include:
Amount of FTD
User engagement
Trading activity
If you have questions about qualification requirements, you can contact your Affiliate Manager (contacts are available in the Dashboard section of your account).
