On the 15th, Meritz Securities lowered the non-face-to-face account trading fee for domestic stock CFDs from 0.10% to an industry-low 0.015%. It introduced the industry's first 100% margin account with no interest costs and, through the substitute margin service, investors can use not only cash but also held stocks as margin, significantly reducing their burden.


During this event period, the first 100 customers each month who open a CFD account at Meritz Securities will receive a mobile gift certificate worth 20,000 KRW.


Additionally, depending on the monthly cumulative CFD trading amount, customers will receive extra gift certificates: 10,000 KRW for trading over 100 million KRW, 30,000 KRW for over 300 million KRW, 50,000 KRW for over 500 million KRW, and 100,000 KRW for over 1 billion KRW.


Meritz Securities' CFD service adopts a method of providing services through its own hedge operations without going through foreign securities firms. As a result, customers do not need to undergo separate currency exchange procedures and can receive the full dividends generated from the underlying assets as income.



In addition, a CFD quiz event and SNS event, which general customers without CFD accounts can participate in, will also be held. Those who answer the quiz correctly will receive coffee coupons, given to 100 people each month, and those who share the event content on SNS and blogs will be entered into a draw to receive gift certificates, also for 100 people each month. The quiz and SNS events can be accessed via popup banners on the Meritz Securities website.
