Trade Allocation Minimum Commissions

We charge a minimum commission for US stock trades allocated by Advisors and Brokers to their clients. Advisors and Brokers can choose to charge the allocation minimum fee to their master account or to the client account. By default, the allocation minimum is charged to the client account unless there is a specific rate arrangement between the client and the master account.

US Stocks Minimum (trade value * 0.0005, USD 1)

100 Shares executed at a price of USD 100.00 allocated to two accounts (50/50):
Allocation Size = 50
Trade Value Per Allocation = USD 5,000
Minimum (5000 * 0.0005, USD 1) = Minimum (2.5, 1)
New Total Fixed Commission Per Allocation = 1.00

100 Shares executed at a price of USD 12.00 allocated to two accounts (50/50):
Allocation Size = 50
Trade Value Per Allocation = USD 600
Minimum (600 * 0.0005, USD 1) = (0.3, 1)
New Total Fixed Commission Per Allocation = 0.30

Notes:

  1. Plus the applicable exchange, ECN and/or specialist fees based on execution venue.
  2. For orders that are immediately executed against an existing bid or offer on the exchange's order book, an exchange liquidity removing fee will be added. See the Tiered North America section for details of the exchange fees.
  3. This charge does not apply to relative, pegged to market and pegged to midpoint orders.
  4. Directed orders to IBKRATS/IBDARK that are marketable will generally be rejected.
  5. Transaction fees are only charged for sell orders.
  6. Includes NMS, OTCBB, and Pink Sheet Stocks.
  7. In the event the calculated maximum per order is less than the minimum per order, the minimum per order will be assessed.
  • Commissions apply to all order types.
  • All exchange fees are included.
  • For clients who send an extraordinary number of non-marketable limit orders to the NYSE, and who route such orders direct to NYSE, rather than using IB Smart routing, IB reserves the right to impose a surcharge in order to defray specialist order handling charges. In this event, IB will provide notice to affected clients.
  • VAT, also referred to as consumption tax, goods and services tax, where applicable, will be separately applied for eligible services.
  • Modified orders will be treated as the cancellation and replacement of an existing order with a new order. On certain exchanges, this may have the effect of subjecting modified orders to commission minimums as if they were new orders. For example, if an order for 200 shares is submitted and 100 shares execute, then you modify the order and another 100 shares execute, a commission minimum would be applied to both 100 share orders. Orders that persist overnight will be considered a new order for the purposes of determining order minimums.
