Shotgun rewards active traders with cashback on platform fees. The more volume you trade, the higher your tier - and the more of your fees you get back.
Cashback is calculated as a percentage of Shotgun’s platform fee on each trade. Higher tiers return a greater share of that fee directly to you. Shotgun’s platform fee is 1%.

​
Tier Overview

Volume Required refers to your cumulative total trading volume on Shotgun. Once you cross a threshold, your tier upgrades automatically.
Referral Bonus: Users who join Shotgun through a referral link receive a 10% cashback bonus on top of the default ROOKIE tier - starting at 60% cashback instead of 50%.

How Tiers Work

Tiers are based on lifetime volume. Every trade you make on Shotgun counts toward your total volume. As your cumulative volume crosses each threshold, your cashback tier increases - permanently. Tier upgrades are automatic. You don’t need to claim or apply for a tier change. Your cashback rate updates as soon as the threshold is reached. Progress is visible in your dashboard. Each tier card shows your current progress toward the next tier - including exactly how much additional volume is needed to unlock it.
