What it is
Binance is a cryptocurrency exchange covering spot, margin and futures trading. Its affiliate program runs on Referral Pro and pays a share of the trading fees paid by the people you refer. It is aimed at crypto creators, community leaders, trading media and funds.
The deal
Your cut of a referral’s trading fees is set by a tier ladder that Binance re-scores every three months, and spot and futures are scored separately. Everyone starts on the bottom rung. Moving up needs both a trading-volume target from your referrals and a minimum count of new traders inside the evaluation window, and the top rung asks for volumes that only a large media property or fund is likely to produce. The ladder also works downwards: miss your current tier’s criteria in a later cycle and you are moved back down. Futures commission stops one year after the referral opens a futures account unless you reach the 30% rung, where Binance states there is no time limit; spot commission has no published expiry at any tier. You can also give referrals a rebate of up to 20% of their spot and margin fees, which comes out of your share. Any Binance user earns at the base rate automatically, but creators can submit a registration form, and Binance lists audience thresholds for that route: 5,000+ social followers for individuals, 3,000+ community members for group leaders, or 10,000+ users or daily visits for businesses.
Getting paid
Nothing runs through an affiliate network. Commission is calculated on net fees, after any market-maker rebates, converted to USDC hourly and paid into your exchange account within six hours. There is no threshold, no invoice period and no monthly cut-off, but you are paid in crypto and have to withdraw it yourself.
The rules
Binance voids commission on referrals acquired through paid search, naming referral links posted as ads on Google or Bing, and on traffic routed through imitation or unofficial sites. Voided referrals are shown in your dashboard. Bulk account registration to farm bonuses is treated as abuse and can cost you both the commission and your place in the program. Sub-accounts cannot invite users, and people in regions where the referral, spot or futures products are restricted are excluded from the tier evaluation entirely.
