FlexInvest’s margin interest rate is based on a floating rate and will vary depending on your investment amount and whether or not you're subscribed to Premium or Elite plans. Additionally, the interest rate depends on whether you are using margin for USD products or EUR products.

USD margin rates explained

Interest is calculated daily at the end of the day on settled margin transactions. The daily standard interest rate for a Basic plan in USD is 6.5% divided by 360. For example, if you use $3,000 of margin, we’ll calculate $0.54 of daily interest as follows:

$3,000 margin used and subject to interest

$3,000 * (6.5% / 360) = $0.54 per day

If you're subscribed to the Elite plan, for example, you'll receive a discounted base rate. The Elite floating interest rate for USD margin is currently 5.2%.

In addition to your active plan, your interest rate is subject to vary based on your USD investment amount. The greater your investment is, the lower your interest rate will be according to the following amounts:
