What is a Cedit Bonus and how does it work?
A Credit Bonus is a promotional trading credit provided by PU Prime during selected promotion periods. It can be used to support your trading by increasing your available trading margin and account equity. However, a Credit Bonus is not cash and cannot be withdrawn or transferred from your trading account.
Trading with a Credit Bonus
The primary purpose of a credit bonus is to provide additional trading capital:
- Credit bonus increases your Trading account margin and equity
- Credit bonus cannot be withdrawn and cannot be used for transfer between trading acocunt
Loss Priority
When trading losses occur, your account is debited in the following order:
- Principal funds depleted first: Your own capital (deposits and trading profits)
- Credit bonus depleted second: The promotional bonus absorbs remaining losses
Withdrawals and Fund Transfers
While the credit bonus itself cannot be withdrawn or transferred, profits generated from trading activity are fully withdrawable:
- Any trading profits earned while using the credit bonus can be withdrawn
- Withdrawal of profits is not restricted by the credit bonus status
- Profits can be withdrawn at any time, subject to standard withdrawal procedures
Internal transfers are not allowed between the trading accounts that have credit bonuses Any profits generated from closed orders can be withdrawn at any time.
However, withdrawing any portion of your original deposit will result in the proportional removal of your credit bonus.
Transferring funds between your trading accounts is also considered withdrawal.
*Note: Once a withdrawal request is submitted, the credit bonus will be deducted proportionally, regardless of whether the withdrawal is successfully processed.
Trading Restrictions and Negative Balance
Automatic Negative Balance Adjustment: If your account balance becomes negative while you are holding a credit bonus, the system will apply automatic adjustments and restrictions:
What Happens: If your account reaches a negative balance with no open positions, the system automatically resets your account balance to zero. Your credit bonus is simultaneously reset to zero without prior notification
Trading Restrictions During Negative Balance
- If your account balance is negative with open positions, you cannot open new trading positions
- No new market or pending orders are accepted
- You can close existing open positions to improve your balance
- Restrictions remain in place until your account balance returns to positive
Credit Bonus Validity and Expiration
Credit bonus is only valid during the promotion period. Once the promotion ends, the credit bonus will be automatically removed without prior notice.

- All remaining credit bonus you have received is immediately removed
