API broker onboarding

Getting Started

To become an API broker, follow these steps:

1. Sign on What Exchange and create an account
2. Provide your account ID
   • Go to "account" tab
   • Copy the account ID in the "API trading" panel
   • This account will automatically receive referral fee on a daily basis

3. Provide a referral code

   • The referral code must be 4 to 10 characters long
   • Only use upper case roman characters and numbers (e.g., "IMABROKER")
   • This code will be used to identify orders placed through your platform

4. Tag your orders

   • When placing an order or algo order
   • Input the predefined referral code string into the order_tag field
   • This allows the system to capture the order for referral fee calculation

5. Receive commission

   • Once the account ID and referral code are set up
   • You will receive commission in the provided account
   • Payments are made daily around 0UTC
