New Value Proposition in Futures Trading
For most, derivatives trading centers on opening and closing positions and managing portfolios. Gate’s Futures Points Program brings added significance to routine trading activities. With a transparent, quantifiable points system, users can earn extra resources through everyday trading, asset holdings, and community engagement.
Trading is no longer just a simple transaction. Instead, it’s evolving into a system that rewards strategic behavior and delivers ongoing, cyclical returns.
How Do Points Work? A Clear, Automated Framework
The points structure is fully streamlined, making it easy for users to track their rewards. The calculation method, reward details, and distribution process are all handled automatically by the system, ensuring accumulation is clear, intuitive, and hassle-free.
Points aren’t tied to fixed uses. Users can redeem them flexibly to suit their strategies, offering more freedom than traditional rebate programs.
Three Primary Sources of Points: Trading, Holdings, and Referrals as the Core Drivers
Gate offers three channels for accumulating points, tailored to different user behaviors.
1. Trading Volume Rewards: The More You Trade, the Faster You Accumulate
Frequent daily trading brings richer rewards:
- Earn 1 point for every 400 USDT in trading volume
- Both opening and closing volume count toward the total
- No daily cap—active users can accumulate unlimited points
Maintain a steady trading rhythm, and every transaction becomes a source of long-term returns.
2. Balance Snapshots: Earn Points Just by Holding Assets
The system automatically snapshots account balances daily (including spot assets in unified accounts) and awards fixed points based on asset amounts:
- $100 ≤ Balance < $1,000: 1 point/day
- $1,000 ≤ Balance < $10,000: 2 points/day
- $10,000 ≤ Balance < $100,000: 3 points/day
- ≥ $100,000: 4 points/day
(Note: Funds in financial accounts are excluded from snapshots.)
3. Referral Promotions: Earn Points by Helping Friends Join
Invite friends to participate in futures trading and earn points:
- Invite 1 friend: 1 point
- Invite 2 friends: 2 points
- Invite 3 or more friends: 3 points
Valid only if the invitee successfully accumulates at least 2 points.

What Can You Do With Points?
Accumulated points can be redeemed for a range of trading resources, including:
- Cash Tokens: Offset trading fees and position operations
- Position Vouchers: Experience positions for testing new strategies
- Trial Bonuses: Funds for strategy simulation or beginner practice
Gate will continue to expand redemption options, making points even more valuable and versatile for strategic use.
Points Rules: Clear Policies Ensure Program Stability
To maintain fairness and balance, the points program follows these rules:
- Points are valid for 15 days
- Rewards are distributed the next day
- The system deducts points with the earliest expiration first
- No points awarded for daily trading volume below 400 USDT
- Institutional accounts and market makers are not eligible
Clear rules help traders plan the optimal strategy for accumulating points.
Building a Cycle: From Points to Strategy to Results
The heart of the Futures Points Program isn’t just about rewards—it’s about creating a sustainable, positive cycle: trading → points accumulation → resource redemption → strategy enhancement → increased activity → more points. Whether you’re a high-frequency trader, a long-term holder, or a community promoter, you’ll find your rhythm within this framework.
Conclusion
Gate’s Futures Points Program redefines the value of trading. Placing orders, holding assets, and engaging with the community become more than just routine—they’re integral to building strategic resources. There’s no need for extra investment; simply trade and hold as usual to accumulate points that support future strategies. This design, which turns actions into tangible value, embodies the core spirit of Web3. If you’re looking to boost your strategic flexibility and grow low-cost resources, this points system offers a scalable, sustainable path for long-term growth.
