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. This page explains the commission, Moon's own worked example, and what a link with a code in it means for you as a reader. Every figure comes from Moon's affiliate page, checked 10 September 2026.
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.
| Line | Amount |
|---|---|
| Wager | $10,000 |
| Opening fee (1% of the wager) | $100 |
| Bonuses Moon expects to pay | $50 |
| Theoretical profit (fee less bonuses) | $50 |
| Affiliate commission at 10% | $5 |
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 other two fees 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 moon.com/?c=ACES carries the code in the address, so the campaign attaches to the account created through it. The address ACES sits after c= in moon.com/?c=ACES, and it stays in the address when the page loads. That parameter is how Moon attributes a new account to the affiliate who shared the link.
The code sits in a URL parameter, not in an account setting you enter after registering. Register through a search result or a bookmark without that parameter, and no code attaches, whatever a page told you beforehand. The address itself is the proof, not a claim written on a page.
What this means for you as a reader
The person sharing a code with you is paid a share of Moon's theoretical profit from your account. That is the arrangement behind every code page, including this one. 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.
The code ACES is a partner offer of 20% off Moon's trading fees. Moon's public pages show only the standard fees, so the discounted rate appears on the wager summary of an account created with the code. That discount is your side of the deal. A code with no discount and no other stated term gives you nothing beyond the commercial interest. Read the fee on your own wager summary before you judge any code, including ACES.
Moon's help centre and affiliate page document a fee discount by partner code, rakeback and a VIP programme. Neither publishes a welcome bonus or a deposit match. 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 state a Checked date and update it when Moon changes a term.
- Does it say plainly that sharing the code earns the page a commission from your account.
