How exchange welcome bonuses work

The headline number is a maximum. Exchanges split it into tasks: verify your identity, make a first deposit, reach a trading volume, try futures or copy trading. Each task unlocks part of the reward, usually as futures bonus credit or fee vouchers that expire after a set number of days. The bonus itself is rarely withdrawable; profits you make with it usually are.

Before you sign up, check that the exchange serves your country, read the offer terms linked on each card and compare fees on the lowest futures fees ranking or side by side with the exchange comparison. Offers change often; we re-check them regularly.

Which crypto exchange has the biggest sign-up bonus?

The largest advertised welcome packages right now are MEXC (up to 10,000 USDT), Bitunix (up to 10,000 USDT), Bitget (up to 6,200 USDT). These are maximums: you unlock them step by step by verifying, depositing and trading, and most of the value is futures bonus credit rather than withdrawable cash.

Can I withdraw an exchange sign-up bonus?

Usually not directly. Most welcome rewards are trading-fee vouchers or futures bonus credit: you can use them as margin or to pay fees, and only profits made with them can be withdrawn. Check each exchange's offer terms.

How do I claim a crypto exchange welcome bonus?

Register through the exchange's link, complete identity verification (KYC) where required, then finish the tasks listed in the exchange's rewards center, typically a first deposit and a first trade, within the time limit.

Are these bonuses available in every country?

No. Each exchange restricts some regions and some offers are regional. The exchange's own terms decide eligibility.
