eXp ICON Agent Program (2025 Guide: Requirements & Stock Awards)
An educational guide to eXp’s ICON Agent Program — what ICON means, how agents qualify during their anniversary year, and how the up to $16,000 in eXp World Holdings (Nasdaq: EXPI) stock awards are structured.
What Is ICON?
ICON recognizes agents who meet certain production requirements and demonstrate eXp’s core values within a 12-month capping period. ICONs are invited to exclusive groups and events for collaboration and growth.
How to Qualify
Agents must first cap ($16,000) and then achieve additional production requirements during their anniversary year. Transactions must be fully settled and properly documented in SkySlope. The ICON team confirms eligibility.
Official Notification
Once the Production Requirement is met, agents are typically notified by the ICON Program by the 25th of the following month. From there, they complete additional steps for full ICON benefits.
Stock Awards: Up to $16,000
Transparent breakdown of the components
