Trading Goes Beyond Buying and Selling
In the rapidly evolving crypto derivatives market, most platforms view trading as a repeated cycle of opening and closing positions. Gate redefines every trader action through the Futures Points Program, turning each step into cumulative rewards. This approach transforms trading from a standard process into the foundation for ongoing value growth.
The points framework prioritizes transparency and traceability, allowing users to earn measurable rewards through daily trading, position management, and community engagement. This builds a shared incentive system rooted in Web3 principles.
Transparent, Public, and Reliable Points System
Gate’s points system operates as a sustainable rewards engine. Point sources and calculation methods are fully transparent, with all rewards automatically recorded based on user activity. Users have complete flexibility to choose when to redeem points and manage their rewards, so points act as participation bonuses instead of fixed prizes.
Three Ways to Earn Points: Stack Points Through Action
Earn Futures Points through three distinct methods, ensuring every trader can participate.
1. Trading Volume Contribution
Trade more frequently each day to receive greater rewards:
- Earn 1 point for every 400 USDT in trading volume
- Both opening and closing trades count toward total volume
- No daily cap; active traders can accumulate unlimited points
Maintain a steady trading rhythm, and every transaction becomes a source of long-term profit.
2. Balance Snapshot Rewards
The system takes a daily snapshot of your account balance (including spot assets in unified accounts), awarding fixed points based on asset value:
- $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: Funds in finance accounts are excluded from snapshots.)
3. Community Promotion Bonus
Earn points by inviting friends to join futures trading:
- Invite 1 friend: 1 point
- Invite 2 friends: 2 points
- Invite 3 or more friends: 3 points
Only invitations where the invitee accumulates at least 2 points are considered valid.

Flexible Points Redemption
Points are dynamic assets that can be used directly for trading:
- Cash Token: Offset trading fees or use for transactions
- Position Voucher: Test your trading strategies
- Trial Bonus: Provide practice funds for beginners
The platform continuously updates redemption options, ensuring ongoing utility for your points.
Points Validity and Operational Guidelines
To uphold fairness, Gate enforces clear usage rules:
- Points remain valid for 15 days
- Rewards are distributed the following day
- The system automatically uses points nearing expiration first
- Users do not earn points on days when their trading volume is less than 400 USDT
- Institutional and market maker accounts are excluded from points rewards
Activity-Driven Multi-Tier Incentive Structure
The core of the Futures Points Program is simple: more active participation leads to more tangible rewards. Whether you’re trading, managing positions, or inviting friends, every action builds growth opportunities, creating a natural cycle—participation leads to rewards, which drive further participation. This model increases trader initiative and strengthens the overall ecosystem.
Summary
The Gate Futures Points Program is designed to turn every trader’s daily activities into real rewards, reshaping trading’s value through the collaborative spirit of Web3. For experienced traders, points expand your strategic options. For newcomers, the system offers a friendly, step-by-step learning path. With this incentive model, trading becomes a continuous process of value accumulation rather than just buying and selling.
