# VIP Program

#### 1. What is the VIP Program

The VIP Program is an exclusive benefits system for active traders. Once you become a VIP, you not only enjoy **lower trading fee rates**, but also **share in the platform's fee reward pool on an ongoing basis** — the more you trade, the more you earn.

#### 2. Two Core VIP Benefits

**2.1 Tiered Fee Rates — Higher Tier, Lower Cost**

* **Base rates**: Taker 0.06%, Maker 0.01%
* Both Taker and Maker rates decrease as your VIP tier rises, directly reducing your trading costs.
* **Tier qualification metric**: your VIP tier is determined by your **total trading volume over the past 30 days** (master account and all sub-accounts combined).

**VIP Tier & Fee Schedule:**

| VIP Tier | Min. 30-Day Trading Volume | Maker Fee Rate | Taker Fee Rate |
| -------- | -------------------------: | -------------: | -------------: |
| Non-VIP  |                          — |        0.0100% |        0.0600% |
| VIP 1    |                 $5,000,000 |        0.0080% |        0.0550% |
| VIP 2    |                $10,000,000 |        0.0060% |        0.0500% |
| VIP 3    |                $25,000,000 |        0.0040% |        0.0450% |
| VIP 4    |               $500,000,000 |        0.0020% |        0.0375% |
| VIP 5    |             $1,250,000,000 |        0.0010% |        0.0350% |

**2.2 Fee Reward Pool — Everyone Shares, More Trading = More Rewards**

The platform continuously channels **30%–50% of its trading-fee revenue** into the VIP **reward pool**, distributed back to VIP users. The exact ratio is **dynamically adjusted** in line with the platform's growth stage and business cycles, but a **substantial pay-back ratio is maintained over the long term**, ensuring that VIP users genuinely share in the platform's upside.

As long as you are at VIP1 or above, you are **automatically enrolled** in each distribution.

**Distribution metric**: rewards are allocated according to your **share of Taker volume over the past 30 days** among **all VIP users**.

**Distribution formula:**

```
Your reward this period
= Total fee reward pool this period
× (Your Taker volume over the past 30 days / Sum of Taker volume over the past 30 days across all VIP users)
```

**Example:**

> Suppose the reward pool for a given period is X, and the only VIP users on the platform are A and B:
>
> * User A's Taker volume in the past 30 days = 100
> * User B's Taker volume in the past 30 days = 900
> * Then A receives 10% × X, and B receives 90% × X.

In short, the larger your share of Taker volume within the VIP cohort, the bigger your share of the rewards.

#### 3. Why Become a VIP

* ✅ **Save on costs**: tiered fees mean higher tier = lower trading fees.
* ✅ **Earn rewards**: starting from VIP1, you automatically participate in the fee reward pool — **no sign-up needed**. The platform continuously channels **30%–50% of fee revenue** into the reward pool.
* ✅ **Compounding effect**: trade more → climb tiers → lower fees → larger share of rewards — a positive feedback loop.
* ✅ **Master + sub-account aggregation**: institutional and team users have all sub-account volumes consolidated under the master account, making it easier to reach higher tiers.

#### 4. Notes

* **Two separate metrics — do not confuse them**:
  * **VIP tier upgrade** → based on your **total trading volume over the past 30 days**.
  * **Fee reward distribution** → based on your **share of Taker volume over the past 30 days among all VIP users**.
* Both metrics **aggregate the master account and all sub-accounts**.
* VIP tiers and reward allocations are recalculated each period — please check your account dashboard for the latest status.
* The platform reserves the right to interpret and adjust these rules. Final interpretation rights belong to the platform.
