What bonuses does XS offer, and how do you withdraw? This guide sorts it out. There are two standing bonuses: JPY 5,000 of credit for completing identity verification, and JPY 10,000 of credit for a first deposit of JPY 20,000 or more.
Withdrawing requires at least 5 lots of trading, within 60 days (checked 19 September 2026). After reading, you will know which bonuses you can receive and the steps up to withdrawal.
In short: two standing XS bonuses and one cashback currently running
- The JPY 5,000 welcome bonus is added automatically when identity verification (KYC) is complete. No deposit is needed
- The JPY 10,000 first-deposit bonus is added once, for a first deposit of JPY 20,000 or more
- Both need at least 5 lots of trading before you can withdraw. The validity period is 60 days
- If you withdraw or transfer funds before meeting the conditions, all the credit is removed
- The offer currently running is the XAGUSD (silver) trading-volume cashback (until 31 October 05:59)
Credit is trading funds added to your account. You can trade with it, but the credit itself cannot be withdrawn.

|---|---|
| Amount | JPY 10,000 of credit (one time only) |

For which account receives it, the client portal (My Page) display takes priority.
XS bonus withdrawal conditions: when credit is removed and what to keep in mind
The point to watch with XS bonuses is the timing of a withdrawal. Under the official conditions, all the credit is removed in the following cases.
- Welcome bonus: removed when you withdraw profit
- Welcome bonus: removed when you move funds to a wallet or another account
- First-deposit bonus: removed when you withdraw or transfer funds before the trading condition is met
- 01Check your trading volume
Confirm in the client portal that you have reached 5 lots. Positions held for under 2 minutes do not count.
- 02Check you are within the validity period
The validity period is 60 days from the date of credit for the welcome bonus and 60 days from the date of issue for the first-deposit bonus.
- 03Withdraw or transfer only after the condition is met
Moving funds before then removes the credit. If you are unsure, check with XS support before withdrawing.
Trading can result in losses. Do not trade beyond your means just to increase the bonus. Choose a lot size you can sustain with your own funds.
