How the referral program works

Simple, free, and there's no cap on how many friends you can refer.

1

Tell a friend about GCI

Use the share buttons below or copy your account number to send by email, WhatsApp, or in person.

2

They open & fund an account

Your friend opens a Live account and selects "Other" with your account number in the referral field.

3

You both get paid

Once their account is funded, both accounts are credited with a real cash deposit — yours and theirs.

The key step

Make sure your friend credits you

On the GCI account application, your friend must select "Other" in the "Where did you hear about GCI" field — and enter your GCI account number in the text box that appears.

Without your account number, we have no way to link the referral. So this step matters.

Tip: Tell your friend the exact account number to enter, copying and pasting avoids typos that could prevent the credit.

Common questions

Referral program FAQ

There's no cap. You earn a cash deposit for every friend who opens and funds a Live GCI account using your account number. Refer five friends, get rewarded five times.

Both accounts are credited shortly after your friend's account is funded for the first time. The credit appears as a real cash deposit you can trade with or withdraw, subject to standard account terms.

Without your account number in the "Where did you hear about GCI" field, we can't link the referral and neither of you will receive the credit. If your friend has already submitted the application without it, contact support immediately — we may be able to add the referral manually if it hasn't been processed yet.

Yes. The referral cash credit is paid in addition to any active deposit bonus, margin bonus, or seasonal promotion. Your friend receives both their referral cash and any other welcome offers they qualify for.

No. If you have a Live GCI account, you can refer friends — there's no application process, no IB agreement to sign, no targets to hit. If you'd like to scale up to a full Introducing Broker arrangement with higher payouts and white-label options, see our IB Program.

You need a Live GCI account so we have somewhere to credit your referral cash. Open a Live account in 5 minutes and you can start referring immediately.

Program Terms

Referral cash bonuses are credited as a real-money deposit to both the referring and referred accounts after the referred account is funded with a qualifying first deposit of at least €/$2,000. The bonus amount paid to each account follows the tier table above, based on the referred friend's first qualifying deposit. The referrer must hold an active Live GCI account at the time of credit. The referral must be properly attributed via the "Where did you hear about GCI" field on the account application — referrals submitted without an attribution cannot always be linked retroactively.

GCI Financial Limited reserves the right to modify, suspend, or terminate the referral program at any time without prior notice. Reward amounts and tiers may vary by country and account type. Bonuses are credited as a tradeable real-money deposit subject to standard account terms.
