In order to take part in our Rebate Program ( where you will earn monthly Rebates equal to 35% of the total commissions charged by Dukascopy ), you must specify The Aslan Group as the referrer on your account.

If you would like to open a demo account, please do so through  This Link

If/when you decide to open a "Live" account, there will be two parts to the equation...

PART ONE

  
1) Open your live account through This Link
 
 
Please note that the account opening process with Dukascopy is different than what most of us are used to. The two main differences are...

1)   You will need to have a copy of your passport or ID Card certified by a Notary Public
2)   You must send original copies of your account opening documents. This means that you will have to mail/courier a package to Switzerland.
 
Please be prepared for the entire process to take around a week ( depending on the speed of your courier )

PART TWO

Once your application is approved and funded, Dukascopy will assign you a " Client ID # " ( this will be a 5-digit number beginning with "1" ).

After you have received this, please send an email to support@theaslangroup.biz ( write "Dukascopy Rebate" in the subject line ).

Include the following information in your email...

1) Your Name

2) Your Dukascopy Client ID #

At this point we will confirm that your account is properly assigned in our back office and send you out a "Welcome Letter" explaining the Rebate Program in greater detail.

If you have any questions, please list them below or feel free to send me a PM.

Best Regards,

Gavin

Just wanted to clarify, you don't need to send original ID docs to them, just the notarised/certified copies.

I had my application refused initially because my signature did not match that on my ID exactly- it was a lot of hassle and i had to go back to get a certified copy of my signature- so be careful, these guys are very strict on their compliance policies.

BTW i used DHL Express through http://www.wedelivertheworld.co.uk/ -if you are in the UK i'd definitely recommend them as couriers, my docs got there the next working day on each of the two occasions i used them, and cost about £14.

Gavin,

Since the process seems to take awhile to open an account, I have already started. I noticed it still said $50,000 as a minimum. I used the link you provided and just wanted to make sure I didn't do anything wrong.

Hi Eric,

I noticed that on the account application as well but rest assured that for the time being you will still be allowed to fund with $10,000. There's a reference to the reduced minimum found on here their site ( Read by the * ) ... http://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/english/forex/forex_trading_accounts/commission-policy/

I hope it stays at $10,000 for a while at least but I really have no idea how long they will keep it at the reduced rate.

Have a great weekend.

According to the FT site, they are offering 30% rebate on commissions if you buy through them.  Is there some difference in what is being offered other than the amount of rebate?

[TheAslanGroup]

Hi islandtrader,

I don't believe this is coming directly from Fap Turbo but instead one of their affiliates. I'm basing this on the terminology used ( "buy through them" ). Fap Turbo is not an affiliate on their own product as we will have no chocie but to "buy from them".

This is likely someone affiliated with another IB who works with Dukascopy. If that's the case, we have no problem increasing our Rebate to 1/3 ( 33% ) and creating a level playing field. Anyone wanting to take advantage of the Rebates can decide for themselves who to go through.

Time to go change all my posts to reflect this change  

Take care,

Gavin

[islandTrader]

My apology.  You are right.  It is an affiliate site, but seemed connected at first as their name was very similar.  Due to the agreement you have with this site I have taken down the URL, although it it mentioned indirectly on another post by a different user.  If you want, contact me directly and I can send it to you.


Since you are given a special place on donnaforex, I wanted to use your services if possible and thought you might like to see what someone else is doing trying to compete with you.  I think they may be actually referring to you.  ?  Check it out...

30% discount on all Dukascopy commissions

One of the Introducing Brokers which has some connections to Fap Turbo announced a few weeks ago that they plan to offer 25% discount on all commissions charged by Dukascopy for FAP Turbo Swiss traders. Since our partner XXXX only offers 20% on Dukascopy we contacted them and were able to negotiate a raise in the discount from 20% to 30%.

[donnaforex]

sorry, not allowed to link here anymore to external forex rebate sites - it is part of my partnership agreement with the aslan group (this is the norm in the industry), although you are most definitely free to present any info you find out and i will not censor that. 

[TheAslanGroup]

Thanks islandTrader, that makes more sense.

There's nothing wrong with having a choice and it has never been our goal to be the biggest fish in the pond.

Our primary focus is right here with Donna and this community of traders.

I believe there are some pretty special things in store for this group and we are thrilled to be a part of that. Each time a new account is linked to The Aslan Group, it not only creates a monthly revenue stream for the client but it helps to support this forum. It really is a "win-win" situation.

We understand the privilege of our partnership with donnaforex.com and we take that responsibility very seriously. It's our commitment to continue pursuing relationships that will add value to the traders in this community.

Take care,

Gavin

Thanks, Gavin. 
Are you for sure planning to match the 30% rebate?  Given the choice, I will use Aslan Group to support Donna and this great site.  Nothing wrong with being the biggest fish in the pond as long as you don't get caught.

Dan,

The first post in this thread for The Aslan Group by Gavin states:

In order to take part in our Rebate Program ( where you will earn monthly Rebates equal to 1/3 or 33% of the total commissions charged by Dukascopy ), you must specify The Aslan Group as the referrer on your account.

I don't think Gavin has changed anything since writing that so I think you'll be all set up and ready to go...

Colleen

[TheAslanGroup]

Hi Dan,

Colleen's absolutely correct. We are for sure matching the 1/3 ( 33% ) Rebate for Dukascopy.

Take care,

Gavin

[islandTrader]

Colleen -
The amount stated and offered was originally 25%.  The original June 18th post was updated (see the bottom of the post: « Last Edit: June 24, 2009, 02:39:48 PM by TheAslanGroup »)  to reflect the new 30%.  This was about 2 hours after I posted that this amount was offered on another site.  That is what I call responsive!  Gavin gave us an extra 5% to keep competitive, allowing us to support this site rather than having to go elsewhere, which is great.  I think that was done via an edit, perhaps.  In any event, it is now changed to 30%, which is good for everyone.

[Colleen]

Hi Dan,

I think you may be right and now the world of edit has helped clarify that it is indeed 30% now...

Happy Pips!

Hi, Gavin, I have registered with Dukascopy and quoted you as referor. How can we coordinate so that I can get rebates in the future? Any website or email to communicate with you? Thanks very much
