IQ Option VIP requirements and benefits (checked 4 October 2026)
On 4 October 2026 we read IQ Option’s VIP page (iqoption.com/en/vip): its VIP versus Standard table, its three steps and its FAQ. Everything below is what IQ Option says. We deposited nothing, so we could not test VIP ourselves.
- Three steps: “Make a VIP deposit” (register a Standard account and top it up with the required country-specific amount, as a one-time deposit or cumulatively over 60 days), “Trade actively” (meet the trading volume criteria over the next 60 days) and “Receive your VIP invitation” (once you reach the criteria, a manager reaches out by email and upgrades your status).
- To qualify: the FAQ says “Deposit $5,000 or more and have a trading volume of $20,000 in the last 60 days.” The steps call the deposit “country-specific” while the FAQ gives $5,000, so ask support what applies in your country.
- To keep VIP: the FAQ says “To keep the VIP status, you must deposit $3,000 or maintain a trading volume of $12,000 every 60 days.” Another answer on the same page says you must make deposits totaling $3,000 over the 60 days after attaining VIP status, or the account reverts to Standard. The two answers differ.
- Withdrawals and support: VIP gets “Priority, Instant processing” for withdrawals and verifications (Standard: “Regular processing times”) and “Priority, 24/7 personal assistance” for support (Standard: “Standard”). We have not tested a VIP withdrawal.
- VIP only, per the table: a personal manager, VIP strategies, VIP indicators, trading signals, webinars with top analysts, increased profitability on selected assets, a VIP badge, free tournament entry and a callback option.
- Profitability: the FAQ puts it 3% to 5% higher on certain currency pairs, “typically ranging from +3% to +5% on the most popular currency pairs of the day”. A banner on the same page quotes a different figure; we use the FAQ’s wording and have not tested it.
- Also in the FAQ: round-the-clock support with screencast analysis for complex cases, live trading and Q&A sessions with IQ Option’s analysts, and free entry to all tournaments (see IQ Option tournaments). Contact: live chat or support@iqoption.com (how to contact IQ Option support).

What is IQ Option VIP account?
IQ Option VIP account is an opportunity for traders to obtain better trading conditions. You get it by registering a Standard account and then meeting a larger deposit and trading volume over 60 days (details below). But is this worth it? Yes. This account comes with perks normal account holders don’t get.
These perks make trading and profiting easier. In this guide, we’ll go through the steps necessary to open an IQ option VIP account. You’ll also learn about some of the benefits you’ll get as a VIP account holder.
How do you get VIP on IQ Option?
Opening an IQ Option VIP accountThe VIP status IQ Option provides is only available to traders residing outside the EU and North America. IQ Option’s VIP page asks for a deposit and a trading volume:
| Where on the page | What IQ Option’s VIP page says about qualifying (checked 4 October 2026) |
|---|---|
| FAQ | “Deposit $5,000 or more and have a trading volume of $20,000 in the last 60 days.” |
| Steps | Top up the required country-specific amount, as a one-time deposit or cumulatively over 60 days, and meet the trading volume criteria over the next 60 days. |
You need both the deposit and the trading volume. According to IQ Option’s VIP page (checked 4 October 2026), once you reach the criteria a manager reaches out by email and upgrades your status. If you think you qualify and have not heard from IQ Option, ask support in the live chat or at support@iqoption.com.
Important! Some VIP account requirements may vary slightly from country to country. If you want to know the exact rules for your country, the best way is to contact support e.g. via chat.
How to maintain the VIP status on IQ Option
Once you have the VIP Account status, you need to make sure to maintain it. IQ Option’s VIP FAQ (checked 4 October 2026) says: “To keep the VIP status, you must deposit $3,000 or maintain a trading volume of $12,000 every 60 days.” Another answer on the same page says you must make deposits totaling $3,000 over the 60 days after attaining VIP status, or the account reverts to Standard. The two answers differ, so ask IQ Option support which one applies to you.

Increased profitability for VIP traders on IQ Option
Increased profitability for IQ Option VIP account holdersIQ Option’s VIP FAQ (checked 4 October 2026) puts the extra profitability at 3% to 5% on certain currency pairs, “typically ranging from +3% to +5% on the most popular currency pairs of the day”. We have not tested it on a VIP account. One major benefit VIP account holders have over other traders is higher returns on successful trades. Keep in mind that the increased profitability of options on different instruments varies.
This makes it easier to grow your account faster. The extra payout applies to selected assets only. Where it applies, even if you have losing trades, it’s easier for you to recover the losses with a few winning trades compared to a normal account holder.
Personal account manager for VIP accounts
Another advantage of being an IQ Option VIP is that you’ll get a personal account manager. The account manager simply helps with any issues regarding your trading account. This allows you to focus on trading. Another VIP account privilege is faster withdrawals processing.
Withdrawals for VIP accounts
All of the VIP account withdrawals get priority handling: IQ Option’s VIP page lists “Priority, Instant processing” for withdrawals and verifications, against “Regular processing times” for Standard accounts (we have not tested a VIP withdrawal). IQ Option withdrawals are also fast without VIP status. But with VIP account you can get your money even faster.
Tournaments for VIP clients on IQ Option
As a VIP account holder, you’ll get access to all tournaments offered by IQ Option. IQ Option’s VIP page lists “Free tournament entry” for VIP only, and its FAQ says all tournaments are free for VIP clients (checked 4 October 2026).
When we first wrote this guide, new VIP account holders also got 4 quality trading eBooks to help them get started trading faster. We did not find the eBooks among the benefits listed on IQ Option’s VIP page on 4 October 2026, so ask support whether they are still included.
The 4 trading eBooks this guide described for new VIPs when it was first writtenConsiderations to make when opening a VIP account
Opening a VIP trading account might bring you special perks. But this doesn’t mean that you should leave your trading to your personal account manager.
Remember that this is your money. So it’s your job to ensure that you keep it and make money from it. Trade your VIP account like you still have limited capital. All other IQ Option rules apply when using the VIP account.
IQ Option is also likely to keep an eye on your account just in case it’s being used for money laundering. If you use your account for illegal stuff, it’s likely to be shut down.
Thinking of opening an IQ Option VIP account? Be sure to contact their support team to know what other hidden perks they have for you.
IQ Option VIP accounts are only available to traders residing outside EEA countries.
