Price Drop Protect
Your first investment, covered. Trade your first $1,000 in one of the Big Ten shares and ETFs on IG's share trading account – including Meta, CommBank, BHP Group, Tesla and more – with three months' loss protection. Limited to the first 500 new IG customers.
How to qualify:
For the avoidance of doubt, a Qualifying Trade must be executed as one transaction and cannot be split across multiple transactions. If your Qualifying Trade exceeds AUD$1,000, then only the first AUD$1,000 of trade value is eligible for loss protection.
-
Open an account and trade
Open a new IG share trading account and make your first trade in an eligible stock ('a Qualifying Trade') – up to AUD $1,000 in notional value by 30 April 2026
-
Hold for 3 months
Keep your entire shareholding for the complete 3-month promotional period (1 May to 30 July 2026)
-
Receive your credit
If your trade has decreased in value by the end of the Promotional Period, then IG will credit you the amount of your loss (capped at AUD$1,000). The credit is calculated as follows: credit = (your purchase price – closing price on final day) × number of shares held
