If the HFM sign-up form is asking you for an Introducing Broker ID or a Campaign ID, the value to enter is 30486574 — and completing that field is how you claim up to a 100% deposit bonus as someone referred by an HF Partner. That single number is the reason this page exists. Everything else here is context, but if you only remember one thing, remember to type 30486574 into the field labelled "Introducing Broker ID" or "Campaign ID" before you finish opening your account.

The fields go by several names depending on which page or app you land on, but they all point to the same identifier. At HF Markets (the broker most people still know by its old name, HotForex, and now trade with under the HFM brand), the "Introducing Broker ID", the "Campaign ID", the "partner code", and the "referral code" are simply four labels for one piece of information: the code that tells the broker which HF Partner referred you. When you supply 30486574, you are attaching your new account to that partner, and that attachment is what makes you eligible for the up-to-100% deposit bonus and the other partner-linked perks HFM offers to referred clients.

The value you need

Below, this guide walks through exactly what the Introducing Broker ID and Campaign ID are, why HFM shows the note "Complete in case you have been referred by an HF Partner", who HF Partners and Introducing Brokers actually are, and how to complete the field step by step. After that, it covers the whole HFM picture — the HotForex rebrand, regulation and fund security, account types, tradable instruments, platforms, spreads and leverage, HFcopy copy trading, deposits and withdrawals, and the precise mechanics of the 100% deposit bonus — so you can open your account with confidence and put that partner code to work.

An Introducing Broker ID is a unique reference number that HF Markets assigns to each of its introducing partners. Whenever HFM needs to record that a particular client was brought in by a particular partner, it uses this number. On the registration form the same number is often labelled Campaign ID, because HFM runs partner referrals as tracked marketing campaigns internally, and each campaign is tied back to the partner that owns it. Different word on the screen, identical function underneath.

Think of the Introducing Broker ID as a tag. When you open a live account and type 30486574 into the Introducing Broker ID or Campaign ID field, HFM tags your account as "referred by partner 30486574." From that moment, the broker knows to apply whatever referral benefits are attached to that partner relationship — most importantly, eligibility for the up-to-100% deposit bonus discussed later in this guide. Without the tag, your account is treated as an unreferred, walk-in registration, and the partner-linked benefits are not automatically applied.

Here is the part that trips people up, so it is worth stating plainly: the HFM Introducing Broker ID, the HFM Campaign ID, the HFM partner code, and the referral code are all the same thing. HFM does not use one number for the "Introducing Broker ID" and a different number for the "Campaign ID." There is one identifier per partner. For the partner behind this guide, that identifier is 30486574, full stop. If a form calls the box "Introducing Broker ID", type 30486574. If a different form calls it "Campaign ID", type 30486574. If a support agent or a friend calls it the "partner code" or "referral code", it is still 30486574.

The reason there are multiple labels at all is partly historical and partly a matter of which HFM interface you are using. The desktop registration wizard, the mobile app onboarding flow, and the localized regional pages were built at different times and by different teams, and they did not standardize the wording. So one path shows you "Introducing Broker ID", another shows "Campaign ID", and older or partner-branded landing pages might show "referral code" or "IB code." The consistency you should hold onto is the number, not the label.

Right next to the field, HFM usually displays a short instruction. The exact wording is: Complete in case you have been referred by an HF Partner. This little note is doing a lot of quiet work, and understanding it removes any doubt about whether you should fill the field in.

The note is telling you three things at once. First, the field is optional from the form's perspective — the registration will technically submit even if you leave it blank. Second, the field is specifically for referred clients — it is not a generic promo box, it is the place where a referral relationship gets recorded. Third, if you were referred by an HF Partner (and if you arrived here through a partner link, a partner's content, or a shared code, you were), then you are exactly the person the note is addressed to, and you should complete it.

So when you read Complete in case you have been referred by an HF Partner and you have the number 30486574 from a partner, the instruction is effectively saying: yes, this box is for you, put the code in. Skipping it does not make your account "cleaner" or "safer" — it just means you decline to be linked to the partner and, with that, you decline the referral benefits that come from the link. There is no downside to completing the field when you have a legitimate code, and there is a clear upside: eligibility for the up-to-100% deposit bonus.

To repeat the guidance the form itself gives, because it is the single most important sentence on the page: Complete in case you have been referred by an HF Partner. You have been referred, and your code is 30486574.

An Introducing Broker (IB) is a person or company that introduces new clients to a brokerage without themselves holding client funds or executing trades. The IB does the "introducing" — through a website, a trading community, educational content, social media, a newsletter, or word of mouth — and the broker does the actual brokerage: it holds the money, provides the platform, quotes the prices, and clears the trades. At HF Markets, members of this introducing network are called HF Partners, and the program that governs them is the HF Partner (or HFM Partners / affiliate and IB) program.

Why does a broker want partners at all? Because acquiring clients is expensive and slow, and partners solve that problem efficiently. Instead of HFM spending on broad advertising to reach a trader who might be interested, an HF Partner who already has the trust and attention of a trading audience makes the introduction directly. It is more targeted and often more trustworthy from the trader's point of view, because the introduction comes with context — a review, a tutorial, a comparison, a community recommendation — rather than a cold ad.

In exchange for bringing in active clients, the HF Partner earns a commission or rebate from HFM. Crucially, this compensation comes out of the broker's own margin and the spread/commission that HFM already charges — it is not an extra fee bolted onto your trading. You do not pay your HF Partner. You do not get worse pricing because you used a partner code. Your spreads, your commissions, your leverage, and your execution are exactly the same whether or not you enter 30486574. The Introducing Broker ID simply routes a slice of what HFM already earns back to the partner who introduced you, and — through referral promotions — routes benefits like the deposit bonus to you.

That symmetry is the whole logic of the arrangement. The broker gets a client. The partner gets a commission for the introduction. You get access to the referred-client benefits, most notably the up-to-100% deposit bonus. Everyone in the chain is better off, and nobody pays a hidden toll. This is why the field exists, why HFM invites you to complete it, and why entering the HFM partner code 30486574 is simply claiming your side of a deal that is already set up in your favor.

Here is the practical, click-by-click part. There are two easy routes, and both end with 30486574 attached to your account.

Route A — Use the pre-filled link (simplest). Open https://www.hfm.com/sv/en/?refid=30486574. The refid=30486574 at the end of the address carries the partner code with you. When the registration form loads, the Introducing Broker ID / Campaign ID field is typically populated automatically. Your only job is to confirm that 30486574 is present before you submit.

Route B — Enter it by hand. If you reach the HFM site through a different link, a bookmark, or an app, just find the field labelled "Introducing Broker ID" or "Campaign ID" during registration and type 30486574 yourself. It works identically to the pre-filled version.

Step by step:

The table below shows where the field appears depending on how you sign up, so you know what to look for on each path.

The safest approach is always Route A followed by a manual check. Open the pre-filled link, glance at the field, confirm 30486574, and submit. Thirty seconds of attention here is what separates "referred client, bonus-eligible" from "walk-in client, bonus not applied."

The headline benefit of completing the Introducing Broker ID / Campaign ID field with 30486574 is eligibility for HFM's deposit bonus of up to 100%. "Up to 100%" means the bonus can match your qualifying deposit dollar-for-dollar, up to the limits and tiers set out in the promotion's terms. Here is how the mechanics generally work and how to think about it.

When you make a qualifying deposit into a bonus-eligible account and opt in, HFM credits an additional bonus amount calculated as a percentage of that deposit. At the top tier, that percentage can reach 100%, effectively doubling the capital you can trade with. The bonus is credited as tradable margin — it increases the funds available to support your positions — rather than as cash you can immediately withdraw. That distinction is central to understanding the offer, and the terms below explain why.

Key characteristics of the up-to-100% deposit bonus, in plain terms:

Suppose you open a bonus-eligible HFM account, having entered 30486574 as your Introducing Broker ID at registration, and you deposit $1,000 into a promotion offering a 100% match at that level. HFM credits a $1,000 bonus, giving you $2,000 of tradable funds. You now have twice the margin to work with, though only $1,000 of it is your own capital.

To turn the bonus into withdrawable money, you would typically need to trade a required volume in standard lots as specified by the promotion. As you trade and meet each volume milestone, portions of the bonus convert and become withdrawable. Any profit you generate along the way is yours under standard withdrawal rules. If you decided to withdraw your original $1,000 before completing the required volume, the still-unearned portion of the bonus would be removed.

The table below illustrates how deposits translate into total tradable funds at a 100% match. Treat the percentages and totals as an illustration of the mechanic; always confirm the current tiers, caps, and volume requirements in the live promotion terms before you deposit.

The reason all of this hinges on the Introducing Broker ID is simple: the referred-client status that the code 30486574 establishes is what makes your account eligible for the referral-linked bonus in the first place. Enter the code, choose a bonus-eligible account, deposit, opt in, and the up-to-100% match is available to you. Skip the code, and you have opted out of the mechanism before it ever begins.

Yes — entering a partner code at a broker is a completely standard, above-board practice, and it changes nothing about the safety or cost of your account except to add benefits. Let us address the concerns people reasonably have.

Does it cost me anything? No. As explained earlier, the HF Partner is compensated by HFM out of the broker's existing revenue. You are never billed for using the Introducing Broker ID, and your spreads, commissions, and execution are identical to those of a non-referred client.

Does it give the partner access to my account or money? No. An Introducing Broker introduces clients; it does not hold your funds, see your password, place trades on your behalf, or control your account. Your money sits with HF Markets, and only you (through your login and any authorized copy-trading choices you make yourself) control your trading. The partner sees, at most, aggregate or anonymized referral activity for commission purposes — not your credentials.

Is HFM itself trustworthy? HF Markets is a long-established, multi-regulated brokerage group with a track record going back well over a decade under the HotForex and now HFM brands, serving a large global client base. Regulation and fund-security specifics are covered in the next sections. As with any leveraged-trading provider, the platform is legitimate; the risk lies in the market, not in the act of using a referral code.

Is the bonus a trick? The up-to-100% deposit bonus is a real, published promotion with published terms. It is "up to" 100% because it is tiered and capped, and the bonus portion carries trading-volume conditions before it becomes withdrawable. That is normal for deposit bonuses across the industry. It is not a trap; it is an incentive with rules. Read the rules, and it works exactly as described.

In short, completing the field with 30486574 is safe, free, and beneficial. The only way to "lose" is to leave the field blank and forfeit the referred-client benefits.

A few small errors cause the majority of "I didn't get my bonus" problems. Avoid these and you will be fine.

To use HFM confidently, it helps to know what you are actually dealing with. HFM is the current brand of HF Markets, the group that for years operated under the name HotForex. The rebrand from HotForex to HFM was a naming and identity refresh — a modernized brand, logo, and app experience — rather than a change of the underlying business. The same group, the same core offering, and the same regulatory footprint carried through the transition. If you have older bookmarks, reviews, or tutorials that say "HotForex," they are referring to what is now HFM.

The HF Markets group operates a broad retail and institutional brokerage across many countries, offering trading in a wide range of markets through the popular MetaTrader platforms and HFM's own tools. The group's scale — a large client base built over more than a decade, a substantial award shelf, and a global support operation — is part of why the HF Partner network exists and why the Introducing Broker ID system is so well established. A broker that size runs a mature partner program, which is exactly the machinery your code 30486574 plugs into.

HF Markets operates through multiple regulated entities across different jurisdictions, which is standard for a global brokerage group. Depending on your country of residence, you are onboarded under the appropriate regional entity, each authorized by its respective financial regulator. Over its history under HotForex and HFM, the group has held authorizations from well-known financial supervisory authorities in several regions, giving it a multi-regulated profile.

Beyond licensing, HF Markets has historically emphasized client-fund protection measures common to reputable brokers:

None of this eliminates market risk — leveraged trading can lose money quickly — but it addresses the separate question of counterparty and custody risk, which is what "is my money safe with the broker" really asks. The combination of regulation, segregation, negative balance protection, and additional coverage is why HFM is treated as a mainstream, credible venue rather than an offshore unknown. Always confirm the specific protections that apply to the entity you are onboarded under, as details vary by jurisdiction.

HFM offers several live account types so that beginners, cost-focused scalpers, and larger traders can each pick a structure that fits. The names and exact specifications can vary by region and change over time, but the family generally looks like this:

Bonus-eligible accounts. Not every account type participates in every promotion. The deposit bonus of up to 100% applies to specific bonus-eligible account types. When your goal is the up-to-100% match tied to your Introducing Broker ID, choose an account type that the current promotion designates as eligible, and confirm eligibility in the account-opening flow or the promotion terms. If you open the wrong type for the bonus, you can usually open an additional account of the eligible type from within your Client Area — you can hold multiple accounts under one profile.

Across all types, the referral link stays the same: you enter 30486574 as your Introducing Broker ID / Campaign ID once, at registration, and it establishes your referred-client status for the profile. You then select the appropriate account type for your goals.

HFM provides a wide, multi-asset menu of markets, all traded as forex or CFDs, so you can pursue different strategies from one account and one platform. The main categories are:

This breadth is one of HFM's strengths: the same login, the same funding, and the same up-to-100%-bonus-boosted capital can be deployed across currencies, metals, energies, indices, shares, and commodities. You are not locked into a single market. (Note that the instrument set here is centered on forex and CFDs across these asset classes.)

HFM lets you trade on the industry-standard MetaTrader platforms plus its own mobile app, so you can match the tool to how you work.

All platforms are available across desktop, web, and mobile in various combinations, so whether you prefer a full desktop terminal, a browser, or your phone, HFM has a matching option. Your account, funds, and referred-client status are shared across whichever platform you log into.

Spreads. Pricing depends on the account type. Zero-style accounts offer very tight, near-raw spreads from around zero pips plus a commission, favoring cost-sensitive and high-frequency traders. Premium-style accounts fold the cost into a variable, commission-free spread that is simpler to reason about. Choose the model that matches your trading frequency and instruments.

Leverage. HFM offers a wide leverage range, which can be high depending on your jurisdiction, account type, and the instrument being traded. Higher leverage lets a smaller margin control a larger position — which magnifies both gains and losses. Regulatory caps in some regions limit the maximum leverage available to retail clients, so your ceiling depends on the entity you are onboarded under. Leverage is a tool to be respected, not maximized for its own sake; combined with a deposit bonus that already increases your usable margin, prudent sizing matters more than ever.

Execution. HFM emphasizes fast, reliable order execution with a market-execution model designed to fill orders efficiently and keep requotes and slippage in check under normal conditions. For active strategies — scalping, news trading, automated systems — execution quality is as important as headline spreads, and it is a core part of what the platform is built around.

HFcopy is HFM's copy-trading service, and it deserves a mention because it pairs naturally with a bonus-boosted account and a beginner-friendly setup. HFcopy connects two kinds of participants: Strategy Providers, experienced traders who make their strategies available to be followed, and Followers, who allocate funds to automatically copy those strategies in proportion to their own capital.

As a Follower, you browse Strategy Providers, review their track records and risk profiles, and choose whom to copy. When they trade, your account mirrors their positions automatically, scaled to your allocation. It is a way to participate in the markets while you are still learning, or to diversify across several traders' approaches without managing every position yourself. As a Strategy Provider, experienced traders can earn a share of profits from those who follow them.

HFcopy is a distinct choice you make and control yourself — it is not something an Introducing Broker does to your account. Your HF Partner referral (via the code 30486574) and your HFcopy decisions are independent: the code establishes your referred-client status and bonus eligibility; HFcopy is a separate feature you opt into within your own account. Combined, a new trader can enter 30486574 for referred-client benefits, fund a bonus-eligible account, and use HFcopy to follow seasoned providers — a common on-ramp for beginners.

HFM supports a range of funding methods so you can move money in and out conveniently, and the exact menu depends on your region. Commonly available methods include bank cards, bank wire transfers, and popular e-wallets and local payment options, with the specific list shown in your Client Area based on your country.

Points worth knowing:

Deposits and withdrawals are managed entirely within your own Client Area or the HFM app — again, the Introducing Broker does not touch your funds. The partner code affects your benefits and status, not your access to your money.

1. What is the HFM Introducing Broker ID, and what number do I enter? The Introducing Broker ID is the unique reference that identifies the HF Partner who referred you. On some forms it is labelled Campaign ID instead. Enter 30486574 in that field. It is the same number regardless of whether the box says "Introducing Broker ID" or "Campaign ID."

2. Is the Campaign ID different from the Introducing Broker ID? No. At HF Markets, the Campaign ID and the Introducing Broker ID are two labels for the same identifier — the HFM partner code. There is one number per partner. For this referral it is 30486574 in both cases, along with any "partner code" or "referral code" wording you might see.

3. The form says "Complete in case you have been referred by an HF Partner." Should I fill it in? Yes, if you were referred — and if you arrived through a partner link or a partner's content, you were. The instruction Complete in case you have been referred by an HF Partner is telling referred clients to enter their code. Yours is 30486574. Completing it is how you unlock the referred-client benefits, including the up-to-100% bonus.

4. Does entering the HF Partner code 30486574 cost me anything? No. The HF Partner is paid by HFM from the broker's existing revenue, not by you. Your spreads, commissions, leverage, and execution are identical whether or not you use the code. The only difference is that entering it makes you eligible for referral benefits like the deposit bonus.

5. How much bonus can I get, and how does it work? You can receive a deposit bonus of up to 100% of your qualifying deposit — at the top tier, effectively doubling your tradable funds. It is tiered and capped, credited as tradable margin, and the bonus portion typically becomes withdrawable only after you meet defined trading-volume conditions. Your own deposited funds and genuine profits remain yours under normal withdrawal rules.

6. Can I add the Introducing Broker ID after I have already registered? It is difficult and not guaranteed. Retroactive changes to the Introducing Broker ID usually require contacting HFM support and may not be possible. The reliable path is to enter 30486574 during registration. If you already registered without it, contact support and ask about linking to the HF Partner, but do not count on it.

7. Is it safe to give a Campaign ID to a broker? Completely. The Campaign ID / Introducing Broker ID only records who referred you. It gives the HF Partner no access to your funds, your password, or your trades. Your money stays with regulated HF Markets under segregation and negative balance protection, and you alone control your account.

8. Which account should I open to get the up-to-100% bonus after entering the code? Choose a bonus-eligible account type as designated by the current promotion, then deposit and opt in. Cent, Zero, Premium, and Pro accounts serve different needs, but only bonus-eligible types participate in the deposit bonus. Enter the HF Partner code 30486574 at registration first, then select the eligible account type for the bonus.

Completing the Introducing Broker ID or Campaign ID field is a thirty-second step with a real payoff: it registers you as a client referred by an HF Partner and opens the door to a deposit bonus of up to 100% on qualifying deposits. The value never changes — whether the box says "Introducing Broker ID", "Campaign ID", "partner code", or "referral code", and whether you sign up on desktop, in the app, or through a regional page, the number to enter is 30486574. Remember the form's own guidance: Complete in case you have been referred by an HF Partner. You have been, so complete it.

Do it now, while you are opening the account, because it is the one detail that is hard to change afterward. Enter the HFM Introducing Broker ID / HFM Campaign ID, choose a bonus-eligible account, verify your identity, deposit, opt in, and put your — and your bonus-boosted — capital to work across HFM's forex, metals, energies, indices, shares, and commodities markets on MT4, MT5, or the HFM app.

Risk disclaimer: Trading forex and CFDs involves significant risk and can result in the loss of some or all of your invested capital. Leveraged products magnify both gains and losses, so they may not be suitable for every investor. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results, and deposit-bonus promotions are subject to their own terms, conditions, tiers, caps, and trading-volume requirements, which may change. Nothing in this article is investment advice or a recommendation to trade. Confirm all current account specifications, regulatory details, fund-security measures, and promotion terms directly with HF Markets (HFM) for the entity applicable to your country of residence, and never trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
