Our verdict on each
Crypto.Com Affiliate
This programme pays up to 50% trading fees on a revenue share model and pays out daily, which suits publishers already writing about crypto. It runs in a single vertical, so anyone seeking banking, lending or retail offers will need a different programme to place those offers with.
FXOpen
FXOpen runs a lifetime revenue share on referred trading accounts, so it suits publishers with an audience of active traders rather than a list of one-off signups. The 30 cookie window fits readers who research a broker before funding, and the programme sits with FXOpen EU Ltd, founded in 2005.

Pros and cons
Crypto.Com Affiliate
Pros
- Revenue share of up to 50% trading fees means earnings follow the trading your referrals generate.
- Payouts run daily, so commission is not held for a long cycle.
- Recurring commission is available, and the offer is listed for global coverage.
Cons
- Support runs on help centre only, so partners have no named manager for tracking or payment queries.
- The vertical is crypto only, so finance publishers cannot widen the offer to other products.
- Commission depends on referred trading under up to 50% trading fees, so quiet months earn less.
FXOpen
Pros
- Recurring commission is yes, so a referred trader who keeps funding an account keeps paying the publisher.
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, so tracking and payment questions can be raised on any of the listed channels.
- Reach is global, so the same offer can be promoted outside a single country.
Cons
- The 30 window is shorter than the 45 most investing and trading programmes run, and FXOpen sits 39 of 129 on that measure.
- Earnings follow referred trader volume because the model is revshare, so a wide audience of casual readers can pay less than Qonto's CPA per registration plus KYB bonus.
- Joining runs on direct, so there is no second network to compare offers with and no fallback if this programme changes its terms.
Who each suits
Crypto.Com Affiliate
Who it suits
- Publishers whose readers already follow crypto exchanges and card apps.
- Review sites that want income that grows while referred traders stay active, since recurring commission is available.
- Sites adding a crypto offer to an existing finance lineup, given global coverage.
Who should look elsewhere
- Publishers who prefer a lead or CPA payout: Mintos runs Hybrid lead and CPA commission.
- Anyone chasing business account signups: Qonto pays CPA per registration plus KYB bonus.
- Publishers with retail audiences: Admitad pays 5% per sale.
FXOpen
Who it suits
- Publishers whose readers already trade, since recurring commission is yes and the terms are 20% to 50% lifetime commission.
- Publishers with a considered audience, since a 30 window covers research, demo and funding.
- Sites covering investing and crypto, who can run forex and crypto offers from one account.
Who should look elsewhere
- Publishers who want payment per approved lead: Mintos runs Hybrid lead and CPA commission, which fits finance offers rather than trading revenue.
- Publishors chasing a long attribution window, since the 30 window here is well short of the 365 seen in this category.
- Publishors who prefer a per-sale share across many products: Admitad lists 5% per sale, a different shape from FXOpen's revshare.
Questions about each
Crypto.Com Affiliate
How much does the programme pay?+
The programme advertises up to 50% trading fees. The rate applies to the trading your referrals generate rather than a flat payment for a single signup, so within the same rate a partner earns more when referred readers keep trading.
Does it pay recurring commission?+
Yes, recurring commission is part of the deal. The revshare model means a partner keeps earning while referred traders keep buying and selling, rather than earning once when the first referral signs up. That suits publishers with an audience that trades over time.
FXOpen
What commission does FXOpen pay and how is it calculated?+
FXOpen pays 20% to 50% lifetime commission, and the model is revshare rather than a flat fee per signup. Recurring commission is yes, so an account that keeps trading keeps paying its share of the revenue it generates. In practice a publisher earns more from a small number of active traders than from a long list of one-off signups.
How long do I have to convert a referral?+
The cookie window is 30, long enough for a reader who reads a comparison, checks a demo and then opens a live account. It is shorter for readers who bookmark a broker for weeks before funding, so a slow, considered audience will lose some clicks. Reviews and pricing pages help shorten the path, and deep links keep the referral on the right page.
