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.

Full review
ThinkMarkets gives live clients a 5% bonus on deposits made in USDT (on the ERC20 or TRC20 network). The minimum qualifying deposit is $500, and the bonus is capped at $5,000. You open or log in to a live account, deposit the USDT, then email [email protected] to request the credit, which lands within 48 hours.
The "$5,000" headline is the maximum, not the typical payout: reaching it requires a $100,000 deposit (5% of $100,000). A more realistic $1,000 deposit returns a $50 bonus. The catch is the turnover requirement. The bonus is not withdrawable on its own.
To release it, you must trade at least 5 standard round-trip lots (opened and closed) of FX or gold per $50 of bonus applied, so a $500 bonus needs 50 standard lots traded. Trades on other instruments do not count. The promotion is open to both new and existing ThinkMarkets clients registered under TF Global Markets and is not available to residents of Taiwan. The bonus is paid in USD on the trading account.
Pros
- +Open to both new and existing clients
- +Applies to crypto (USDT) deposits, useful for clients funding by stablecoin
- +Bonus is paid in real USD on the trading account
Cons
- −Bonus is non-withdrawable until a heavy turnover target is met (5 standard lots of FX/gold per $50 of bonus)
- −Only FX and gold trades count toward the requirement
- −Only USDT ERC20/TRC20 deposits qualify; the $5,000 cap needs a $100,000 deposit
- −Claim requires emailing support rather than an automatic credit
- −Turnover is far heavier than the 'per $50' framing suggests: a standard lot is 100,000 units, so unlocking a $50 bonus requires about $500,000 of FX/gold round-trip volume (~500x a $1,000 deposit); the $5,000 headline bonus requires roughly $50,000,000 in notional (500 standard round-trip lots)
- −For typical deposit sizes the spread and commission cost of generating the required volume will likely exceed the bonus itself, so the 'withdrawable' bonus is attainable in theory but rarely worth it in practice
