From Placing Orders to Real Value Accumulation
In the crypto derivatives market, most traders view their activity as a cycle: open a position, close it, and repeat. Gate’s Futures Points Program redefines this process. Each step is transformed from a routine action into a mechanism for long-term rewards.
This points system is built on transparency, traceability, and quantifiability. Whether you trade daily, hold significant assets over time, or refer friends to the platform, you can earn tangible, usable rewards through everyday engagement.
A Transparent Points Framework
Gate’s points system operates as a sustainable incentive engine. Every source of points, calculation method, and reward distribution runs automatically, so users always know exactly how much they can earn. You control when to redeem your points. This flexibility goes beyond fixed prizes and makes every participation a dynamic bonus.
Three Primary Ways to Earn Points
You can earn Futures Points through three distinct channels, ensuring all types of traders can participate.
1. Trading Volume Rewards
The more you trade each day, the more you earn:
- Earn 1 point for every 400 USDT in trading volume
- Both opening and closing trades count toward your total volume
- There is no daily limit; active users can accumulate points without restriction.
By maintaining a consistent trading pace, you can turn every transaction into a source of long-term profit.
2. Balance Snapshots: Earn Daily Rewards by Holding Assets
Each day, the system automatically snapshots your account balance (including spot assets in unified accounts) and issues fixed points based on your asset holdings:
- $100 ≤ balance < $1,000: 1 point per day
- $1,000 ≤ balance < $10,000: 2 points per day
- $10,000 ≤ balance < $100,000: 3 points per day
- ≥ $100,000: 4 points per day
(Note: Assets in financial accounts are excluded from snapshots.)
3. Community Promotion: Invite Friends and Earn More
Referring friends to contract trading also earns you points:
- Invite 1 friend: 1 point
- Invite 2 friends: 2 points
- Invite 3 or more friends: 3 points
Only invitations are eligible if the invitee earns at least 2 points.

Diverse Redemption Options Expand Your Strategy
Your accumulated points are more than just numbers. They are resources you can use directly in trading, including:
- Cash Token: Offset fees or use directly in trades
- Position Voucher: Evaluate strategies without risk.
- Trial Bonus: Practice trading in a simulated environment.
The platform will continue to add new redemption options to ensure your points retain long-term value.
Points Operation Guidelines
To ensure the program runs smoothly, Gate enforces several points management rules:
- Points expire in 15 days
- Rewards are credited the following day.
- Points closest to expiration are redeemed first.
- Users will not receive points if their daily trading volume is less than 400 USDT.
- Institutional accounts and market makers are not eligible for rewards.
These clear rules help you plan and optimize your points usage strategies.
Multi-Tier Incentive Cycle
The contract points program’s core principle is simple: the more actively you participate, the more tangible your rewards. Whether you’re trading, holding assets, or inviting friends, every action compounds your growth opportunities. This creates a natural cycle: participation leads to rewards, which encourage further participation. Trader engagement increases, energizing the platform’s entire ecosystem.
Conclusion
The Gate Futures Points Program transforms trading from a simple operation into a journey of ongoing value creation. Whether you’re a high-frequency trader, a steady holder, or an active promoter, you’ll find growth opportunities in this framework. It’s more than a rewards system—it’s a Web3-style sharing model, where every action has meaning and trading gains new momentum and direction.
