Solutions for the Modern Broker: Overcoming Industry Hurdles
The Introducing Brokers (IB) model has gained significant traction among brokerage firms as an efficient way to attract high-quality traders while minimizing marketing expenses. This system depends on intermediaries, influencers, and market specialists to bring in new clients, earning rewards for their efforts. However, despite its advantages, this approach presents several challenges.
Research from CME Group highlights that IBs frequently struggle with increasing compliance expenses, administrative burdens, and the difficulty of acquiring new traders. A major concern is the lack of transparency from brokers, often leading to commission disputes and delayed payments—issues that can ultimately drive IBs away.
Additionally, tracking referral links and monitoring client conversions manually proves inefficient, particularly for large brokerages managing multiple IB programs, sub-IB networks, and diverse commission structures.
B2CORE addresses these challenges by streamlining referral tracking and automating commission calculations, which minimizes human error and accelerates payouts. It also provides IBs with transparent dashboards powered by real-time market data, along with a multi-tier IB structure that supports network expansion.
The impact? Brokerages reduced administrative efforts by 90% through automated commission processing and payouts. They also expanded their IB networks by 120%, with IB-referred clients increasing trading volumes by 75%, benefiting from faster payments, improved engagement, and robust support tools.
Focus on automation
One of the standout features highlighted by B2CORE is its ability to automate payments, management, tracking, and communication.
This approach aims to minimize human errors and delays often associated with processing payments. Traditionally, brokers must manually review an IB’s referred clients, track their trading activity and earnings, compare the data with the IB’s commission agreement, and then process the payout.
With automation, these calculations occur in real-time as traders engage in financial markets, ensuring accurate and timely payouts when due.
Additionally, the system offers automated referral tracking, allowing IBs to efficiently monitor their clients and sub-IB networks for improved performance and engagement.
Flexible commissions
B2CORE’s commission system offers flexibility to accommodate various brokerage models and IB strategies. Clients can tailor their commission structures by selecting from four primary options: fixed, volume-based, hybrid, and markup/spread-based commissions.
The fixed commission model applies a standard fee per referral or trade, whereas the volume-based approach calculates payouts based on traded lots. The markup system allows brokers to distribute revenue from trading spreads, while the hybrid model integrates multiple structures for greater adaptability.
This level of customization ensures alignment between brokers’ goals and IB expectations, fostering engagement and motivation.
Clear Visibility
Introducing Brokers (IBs) need complete transparency regarding their earnings, client activity, and commission payouts. Providing instant commission tracking and real-time insights into trader activity enhances IB satisfaction and retention.
B2CORE empowers IBs by offering a comprehensive view of their clients’ trading sessions, transactions, and deposits. This allows IBs to identify opportunities for improvement and tailor their services to increase trader engagement and maximize their earnings.
By fostering transparency and trust, this approach strengthens the relationship between brokers and IBs, encouraging long-term collaboration and mutual financial growth.
Scalability
Most brokers encounter challenges with scalability as their trading volumes and IB networks expand. To keep up, they often need to upgrade their systems and allocate additional resources.
In contrast, the scalable B2CORE engine effortlessly supports both small and large IB networks, whether it’s 10 or 10,000 partners, without requiring extra workforce or infrastructure. This streamlines growth and enhances IB management efficiency.
Ongoing Innovations
A scalable, adaptable, and transparent IB module is crucial for brokerage success, especially in a competitive and evolving market. If their specific needs aren’t met, IBs may opt for alternative brokerage platforms.
The B2CORE IB Module addresses key challenges such as transparency, commission management, and manual errors, enabling brokers to establish and grow a strong network of Introducing Brokers while enhancing their revenue potential.
