The binary option payout is fixed before entry

Before Higher or Lower you already see what arrives if you win. While the contract is open, that figure does not change.

Where the percent sits

On the pair card: FX, crypto or metal. Percents differ.

What a win pays

The stake plus that percent. The credit is calculated before the click.

What the percent does not do

It does not raise the chance. A binary option can take the whole stake if the close is against entry.

Where to read the percent

The percent is written on the asset before the click: on the pair card and next to the amount in the terminal. The credit, stake plus that percent, is calculated in advance too.

Pairs carry different figures. BTC/USD goes up to 90%, gold up to 85%, and the FX majors sit lower. The number is on the pair before entry.

When the figure freezes

From entry, the percent of this contract does not change, even if new trades on the pair later see another number. Your contract keeps the figure you saw.

A longer term does not raise the percent. Thirty seconds and one hour on the same pair refer to one payout card.

What the percent does not promise

It is the size of the payout if your side is right, not a probability. If the quote closes against entry, the percent does not soften the loss: the stake stays in the pool.

On a tie the percent is not paid either. Only the stake returns. The risk of a binary option is the full loss of the amount you staked.
