Risk warning: Trading carries a high risk of losing money, especially with leveraged products such as CFDs. A bonus does not reduce that risk. Only deposit what you can afford to lose.

The catch
Bonus funds are credited as non-withdrawable real funds that can be traded and absorb drawdown; the bonus itself is never withdrawable. Profit becomes withdrawable only after meeting a trading turnover that AMarkets sets as approximately (bonus amount / 3) in standard lots, e.g. a 200 USD bonus requires roughly 66-67 standard lots, and the 5,000 USD cap would require on the order of 1,600+ standard lots.
How to claim
- Open a Standard or Fixed account in USD or EUR on MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5
- Fund the account with your initial deposit
- Submit a trading statement from your previous broker to prove you traded on a live account elsewhere
- AMarkets credits a 20% bonus (up to 5,000 USD or 5,000 EUR) to the account
Full review
The Broker Switch Bonus adds 20% to your first deposit at AMarkets if you move over from another broker. It is available on Standard or Fixed accounts in USD or EUR on MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5. To qualify you submit a trading statement from your previous broker showing you traded on a live account there, then fund your new AMarkets account.
The catch is in how the money behaves. The bonus is credited as real funds you can trade with and that absorb drawdown, but the bonus amount itself can never be withdrawn. Only profits you earn become withdrawable, and only after you hit a required trading turnover, after which the unused bonus is removed.
The bonus expires 30 days after the deposit. The advertised "up to 5,000" figure is a cap, not what most traders receive: because the match is 20%, you would need to deposit 25,000 USD to reach the full 5,000, so a typical deposit returns a far smaller amount (for example, a 1,000 deposit yields a 200 bonus).
Eligibility is limited to traders who previously held a live account with another broker. AMarkets does not serve the United States, the United Kingdom, EU/EEA/EFTA countries, Japan, or sanctioned jurisdictions, and bonus availability can be further limited by local regulation.
Pros
- +Adds 20% to your deposit on top of your trading capital
- +Bonus funds cushion drawdown while you trade
- +Works on both MT4 and MT5 in USD or EUR
Cons
- −Bonus itself is never withdrawable, only profits are
- −Profits require meeting a trading turnover before withdrawal
- −Only 30 days to use it before it expires
- −The 5,000 cap needs a 25,000 deposit; most users get far less
- −Requires proof you traded with a previous broker
- −Withdrawing your own deposit (even partially) cancels the entire bonus, and the first withdrawal terminates the bonus account, accepting the bonus locks your principal for 30 days
