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

The $1,000 prize is credited to the winner's Tickmill wallet within two business days and can be traded or withdrawn at any time with no turnover or hold restriction. However, payout is conditional on the winner completing a written interview and consenting to Tickmill publishing their full trading account history for marketing.

How to claim

  1. Open or hold a live trading account with Tickmill Ltd (FSA Seychelles)
  2. Register for the contest using the form on the promotion page during the contest month (first to last day)
  3. Trade live during the month so your account is evaluated on profit percentage, drawdown, risk management and risk-to-reward ratio
  4. If selected, respond to the email notification (sent within 15 to 30 days of month end) and complete the winner interview form
  5. The $1,000 is credited to your Tickmill wallet within two business days and can be withdrawn with no restriction

Full review

Trader of the Month is a recurring contest run by Tickmill Ltd (FSA Seychelles regulated). Each calendar month, one live-account client wins $1,000 in cash. The prize is credited to the winner's Tickmill wallet within two business days of completing a short winner interview form, and the official terms state it can be used for trading or withdrawn at any time without any restriction.

There is no turnover requirement on the prize itself. The catch is that this is a judged contest, not an automatic bonus everyone receives. Winners are picked by Tickmill's team on a mix of profit percentage, maximum drawdown, risk management and risk-to-reward ratio, so trading aggressively for raw profit does not guarantee a win.

You must register through the form during the contest month, and each participant can only win once across the life of the contest. The Wall of Fame lists much larger trading profits (for example $6,592 in March 2026), but the actual cash prize awarded is a flat $1,000.

Eligibility is open to new and existing Tickmill Ltd clients aged 18 or over who hold a live account. Tickmill employees and their families are excluded. Residents of the United States, Iran, India and Singapore are not served by this entity.

Some aggregator listings mention a $500 minimum account equity to qualify, but that threshold is not stated in the official terms on the promotion page.

Pros

  • +$1,000 cash prize is fully withdrawable with no turnover requirement
  • +No bonus code or special deposit needed, just a live account and registration
  • +Judging rewards disciplined risk management, not just raw profit

Cons

  • Only one winner per month, so most participants get nothing
  • You must trade with real money to be evaluated
  • Each trader can only win once ever
  • Run by the offshore FSA Seychelles entity, not an EU/UK regulated entity
  • Payout requires completing a written interview AND consenting to Tickmill publishing your full trading account history for marketing
  • Expected value is near zero for an ordinary trader: one winner per month out of all participants
