Modern IB management software automates commission calculations across complex multi-tier structures, provides partners with real-time dashboards, handles automated withdrawals, and gives brokers complete visibility into their partner network's performance. It's a critical component of any forex CRM system.
Forex IB management software is a specialized system—typically integrated into a forex CRM—that handles all aspects of managing Introducing Brokers, affiliates, and referral partners. It automates the complex calculations required for commission structures and provides tools for both brokers and their partners.
| Level | Partner | Commission | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Master IB | $5/lot + 10% override | Direct clients + Sub-IB volume |
| Level 2 | Sub-IB | $4/lot + 5% override | Direct clients + Level 3 volume |
| Level 3 | Affiliate | $3/lot | Direct referrals only |
This cascading structure automatically calculates commissions at each level. When a Level 3 client trades 100 lots, the system pays: Affiliate $300, Sub-IB $50 override, Master IB $50 override.
