Make Every Trade the Starting Point for Ongoing Growth
In the derivatives market, many traders see placing, closing, and reopening positions as routine daily actions. The Gate Futures Points Program transforms these routine activities into opportunities for value accumulation.
This program prioritizes transparency and allows users to accumulate usable rewards in a traceable, quantifiable manner—from trading activity and asset holding to community engagement. As a result, everyday trading becomes part of a sustainable growth cycle.
A Transparent Points System
Gate has developed a comprehensive, automated points system covering calculation methods, reward rules, and distribution logic. Every participant can clearly understand how their rewards are earned. Points are not tied to predetermined uses, so you can choose when to redeem them, making your trading strategies more flexible and dynamic.
Three Main Paths for Earning Points
Traders can increase their points through any of the following three methods.
1. Trading Volume-Based Rewards
The more you trade each day, the greater your rewards:
- Earn 1 point for every 400 USDT in trading volume
- Both opening and closing positions count toward your total trading volume
- There is no daily limit—active users can accumulate an unlimited number of points
By maintaining a consistent trading rhythm, you can make every transaction a source of long-term returns.
2. Balance Snapshots: Earn Daily Rewards by Holding Assets
The system takes a snapshot of your account balance daily (including spot assets in unified accounts) and distributes fixed points based on your asset amount:
- $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: Assets in financial accounts are excluded from snapshots.)
3. Community Promotion: Invite Friends and Grow Together
Invite friends to participate in futures trading to earn points:
- Invite 1 friend: 1 point
- Invite 2 friends: 2 points
- Invite 3 or more: 3 points
Points are only awarded if the invited user successfully accumulates at least 2 points.

What Can You Redeem with Points?
Accumulated points can be redeemed for a variety of resources to boost your trading flexibility:
- Cash Tokens (to offset trading fees or for use in transactions)
- Position Vouchers (trial vouchers for strategy testing)
- Trial Bonuses (practice funds available to new users)
The platform will continue to expand redemption options, ensuring points remain valuable over the long term.
Points Usage Rules
To maintain program stability, the system enforces the following basic rules:
- Points are valid for 15 days
- Rewards are distributed the following day
- The system will use points that are closest to expiration first
- No points are awarded for a daily trading volume of less than 400 USDT
- Institutional accounts and market makers are not eligible for this program
These clear rules help users optimize their points strategies more effectively.
Trading Participation Drives a Positive Cycle
The core of the Futures Points Program is to build a self-sustaining growth model. Whether you trade frequently, hold positions for the long term, or enjoy referring friends, every interaction lays the foundation for further growth. As the cycle of participation, reward, and re-engagement continues, the entire ecosystem grows more dynamic and robust.
Summary
The Gate Futures Points Program is more than a rewards framework—it reimagines trading as a process that continually creates value. Whether you excel at short-term trading, prefer stable positions, or want to accumulate more resources through community engagement, you can find your own growth rhythm in this system. This approach aligns with the spirit of Web3, ensuring that every action is forward-looking and provides lasting value and motivation for traders.
