Affiliate disclosure

Keyline Desk is independent and may earn a commission from links to IQ Option. Trading carries a risk of loss.

The longer version, in plain English: some of the links on this site send you to the official IQ Option platform through a partner arrangement. If you follow one of those links and go on to open an account, the desk may be paid a commission by the platform's partner programme. You pay nothing extra for using them — the terms you get are the platform's ordinary terms, and the price of anything you do there is the same whether you arrived through a link here, through a search result, or by typing the address yourself.

How to recognise these links

They are the call-to-action buttons and links that take you to the platform, and they are easy to spot once you know what to look for:

• they route through this site's own redirector, so the address starts with /go/ before it hands you on to the official platform;
• they open in a new tab, leaving the guide you were reading where it was;
• they are marked as sponsored links in the page code, which is how search engines are told about the relationship.

Links that point to other pages on this site are ordinary internal links and earn nothing. Where a guide simply names the platform in the middle of a sentence, that is a mention, not a paid placement.

What the arrangement does not change

The commercial side is kept away from the editorial side, and it is worth being specific about what that means:

• No page here is a paid placement, and no article has been bought, commissioned or approved by the platform or by any partner programme.
• The desk is not paid for positive coverage, and no payment depends on what a page says.
• Nobody outside the desk sees a guide before it is published, and nobody outside the desk can require a change to one.
• Guidance is written the same way whether or not a page carries a partner link — the steps are drawn from the platform's own public documentation either way.

The full description of how the guides are researched, including what the desk does not claim to have tested, is on the editorial page.

Independence

Keyline Desk is not IQ Option. We are not affiliated with the platform beyond the commercial link arrangement described here, we are not operated by it, and we do not speak for it. We hold no client money, we place no trades, and we have no access to any account. A partner arrangement is a way of funding the writing, not a form of ownership.

Availability and terms are set by the platform

Everything about the product itself — who can register, which countries are served, what verification is required, which instruments and account types are offered, and every fee or condition attached to them — is decided and published by the platform, not by this site. Those details change without notice, and regional rules can change what is available to you specifically. Check the current terms on the official platform before you act on anything you read here, and treat what a guide says as a description of the flow rather than a guarantee of what you will be offered.

Risk

Trading CFDs and options carries a risk of losing money, and losses can be rapid. Nothing on this site is investment advice, a personal recommendation, or an inducement to trade; the desk explains how to sign in and keep an account secure, not what to buy or sell. No result you may read about elsewhere is a promise of your own. If you are learning, the demo account is funded with virtual money and lets you look around the traderoom without putting real money at stake. Only trade money you can afford to lose entirely, and if you are unsure whether a product suits you, take independent professional advice first.
