How do I change my IMPACT account to a margin account?

To change your account type for your IMPACT account:

  1. Tap the avatar in the top left corner of the app's Home page.
  2. Swipe up and tap Settings then tap Account Settings.
  3. Tap Account Type.
  4. In the Account Type field, select Margin.

Please Note

  • Before you can upgrade to a margin account, you must meet the eligibility requirements.
  • Requests will be reviewed by the IBKR Risk and Compliance Departments. Approval typically takes 24 to 48 hours.
  • If you recently downgraded your account from Margin to Cash, market regulations require a waiting period of 30 days before your account becomes eligible for Margin again.
