Moon.com affiliate program

The default commission: 10% of theoretical profit

Moon's default affiliate commission is 10% of the theoretical profit generated by referred accounts, paid for as long as they keep betting, whether they win or lose. Theoretical profit is not the trader's balance. It is Moon's own working figure, built from the fees a referred account pays, less any bonuses Moon expects to pay out against that account.

A $10 fee and a $10,000 fee count the same way. Moon calculates the theoretical profit from the money it expects to keep, not from the size of a single bet. The commission scales with trading activity across the account, not with one wager.

Moon pays this commission on a losing bet the same way it pays it on a winning bet. The commission tracks the fees the account generates, not the outcome of any single trade. It continues for as long as the referred account keeps betting, not for a fixed period after signup.

Moon does not publish a cap on this commission. It does not state a minimum trading volume before a referred account counts. We report what the affiliate page states, and nothing beyond it.

Moon's own worked example

Moon's own example: a $10,000 wager pays a $100 opening fee, Moon expects $50 of bonuses, the theoretical profit is $50, and the affiliate commission is $5. The table sets out each line.

Moon charges a 1% opening fee when a new bet is opened, calculated on the wager amount only, not on the leveraged exposure. In this example the opening fee is the only fee in the figure. The theoretical profit is the fee minus the bonuses Moon expects to pay against the account. Read Moon.com fees explained for the published fees and unresolved costs behind a referred account's activity.

Scale the wager down and the fee scales with it under the same 1% rate: a $1,000 wager pays a $10 opening fee. Moon does not publish how the bonus line moves at a different wager size. We do not extend that part of the example beyond the number Moon gives.

A bigger programme for a large following

Moon states that affiliates with a large following can apply for a customised programme with higher commissions. Moon does not describe how large a following must be before it qualifies. It states only that a large following can apply, and that the programme pays a higher commission than the 10% default.

Moon does not publish the negotiated rate for that tier. The 10% rate above is the default for a standard affiliate account. It is the rate this page treats as the norm.

How a link carries the code

Moon's affiliate programme works through links: an affiliate signs up to get a link, and Moon tracks the accounts that register through it. The link shared by this site uses the c= parameter with ACES.

The URL shared by this site includes ACES as a referral parameter. A successful page load does not prove attribution or account benefits. We have not completed registration or inspected referral attribution on a funded account. Existing users should ask Moon whether any attribution or benefit can be added; we do not assume that a link changes an existing account.

What this means for you as a reader

An approved affiliate may receive a share of Moon’s theoretical profit from referred accounts. This site may earn a commission from its referral link. It does not change the fee you pay. Moon states the commission comes from its own margin, not from an extra charge on your bet.

We have not independently confirmed a fee discount for ACES. The referral landing page is not evidence of a discount or its eligibility rules. Ask Moon to confirm the specific benefit, its conditions and its calculation before relying on a saving. Read the code guide for the limits of our public-interface inspection.

We have not found a general welcome bonus or deposit match in the sources reviewed. Account-specific campaigns may have separate terms. Read what exists instead of a welcome bonus before you trust a page that promises one.

This site states that arrangement in its footer on every page. We do not hide the commission, because it explains why the page exists. A page that never says how it is paid is not more neutral for staying silent. It is leaving out a fact you need to judge its numbers.

How to judge a code page

Apply the same four checks to any code page you read, including this one.

• Does it link Moon's own help centre or affiliate page for every number, or does it cite itself.
• Does it promise a bonus, a deposit match or a fixed rate that Moon does not publish anywhere.
• Does it distinguish a source retrieval, an editorial review and an account test, with dates for each.
• Does it say plainly that sharing the code earns the page a commission from your account.
