Binance new-user benefit

20% fee rebate

AMY568
Sign up for Binance

Official Binance sign-up · You must complete identity verification (KYC) to trade and withdraw

In 2026, the safest way to use a Binance referral code is still to enter it during the sign-up step. If you skip it, in the normal case you can't add it later from the account settings; however, Binance now opens re-binding (Referral Re-binding) to some existing users who meet conditions, and whether you can do it depends on your account status and the platform's current eligibility.[1]

With AMY568, the invitee gets a fee benefit (not free crypto): a 20% rebate on spot and 20% on futures. This article explains what actually gets rebated, how to confirm AMY568's current benefit, how to enter it on the web and app, and whether an existing user can bind it.

Note: this article shares experience about referral codes and the rebate mechanism, and is not investment advice. Trading crypto carries risk; act with caution.


The essentials

Question Answer
When do you enter the code? Safest during the sign-up step; if skipped, you normally can't add it, though some existing users can use re-binding
What do you get? A 20% fee rebate on spot and 20% on futures
Can you skip it? Yes, just without the fee benefit
Can an existing user add it? Some can, depending on eligibility on the official Referral Re-binding page

In one sentence: the referral code is "a fee benefit you confirm while signing up", not a sign-up bonus; new users shouldn't skip it and existing users should check their re-binding eligibility.


Who needs it / who doesn't

Your situation Recommendation
You're about to sign up for Binance Use it: enter AMY568 while registering; there's no extra cost
You already trade on Binance and want the rebate Check your re-binding eligibility; see "Can an existing user bind it?" below
You only register to watch prices and rarely trade Doesn't matter; the difference is minimal
You trade frequently The fee benefit matters more; it adds up over time

First, what actually gets rebated

This is where beginners get confused most. Many people think that after using a referral code, a sum of crypto or cash will appear in the account out of nowhere. It won't.

What a Binance code gives the invitee is, in essence, a part of your future trading fees, returned or discounted. When you trade you generate fees, and the code's rule makes you pay a little less; if you don't trade, there are no fees, so there's nothing to return.

Note: this "fee benefit" is 20% on spot and 20% on futures. It is a return or discount on part of the trading fee, not a lump of money gifted at sign-up.


How much is the AMY568 fee benefit

AMY568 is a code for the invitee: it corresponds to the invitee's fee benefit — that is, the return or discount you get on your own fees when you use the code.

As for exactly how much: the rebate linked to AMY568 is 20% on spot and 20% on futures. It's a fixed rebate percentage, with no distinction between spot and futures trading. Figures advertised on third-party sites are only references; don't draw conclusions from the number alone.


How to tell if a referral code is legit: four questions

Not all "Binance codes" are equal. When someone recommends one, ask four questions:

Question How to evaluate it
Can the source be verified through official channels? A legitimate code comes from Binance's official site or app during sign-up, not a link dropped in a private chat or group
Is the percentage above 20%? The maximum Binance gives the invitee is 20%; anything above 20% (40%, 50%...) usually counts the referrer's commission and presents it as your discount
Is it entered at sign-up or added later? Legitimate codes are used in the sign-up step; whoever says "register first, then add the code" usually points to an unofficial process
Are there extra clauses or requirements? A normal code doesn't ask you to transfer, provide passwords or codes, or deposit first; if it does, it's a scam

Remember: faced with a promise above 20%, your first reaction should be "whose money are they counting?", not "what a bargain".


How to confirm the 20% before registering

Instead of trusting my "20%", confirm it yourself in three steps; it's visible right on the sign-up page:

  1. Enter the sign-up page through an official Binance invitation link.
  2. Expand the Referral ID / referral-code area.
  3. Confirm the code and the fee-benefit percentage the page shows, then complete registration.

How to confirm the fee benefit on the sign-up page: open the official link, expand Referral ID and check AMY568 against the current percentage

The sign-up page shows the 20% fee rebate corresponding to AMY568. Just check that the code is entered correctly; don't obsess over third-party promotional images.


How to enter it: web and app

The process is tied to registration; just follow the steps.

On the web

  1. Open the official site binance.com and tap "Register" in the top right.
  2. Enter your email or phone number and set a password.
  3. Find the "Referral ID" field and enter AMY568.
  4. Complete the email or SMS verification and finish registering.

On the app

  1. Open the Binance app and tap "Register".
  2. Fill in your email or phone number and password.
  3. Enter AMY568 in the "Referral ID" field.
  4. Complete verification and your registration is done.

The key action is one: enter AMY568 in the referral-code field during the sign-up step, then finish the process. That's the safest way.

Entering AMY568 in the referral-code field during registration


Can an existing user bind it?

It's possible, but with clear conditions — and it's not "re-binding": it's the first binding for an existing user who never had a referrer.

Binance's "Affiliate Recall program" lets registered users who meet conditions bind a rebate relationship. According to Binance's official FAQ, the invitee must meet all of these at once:

  • Be registered on Binance and never have been bound to any referrer;
  • Have been registered more than 90 days;
  • Have not traded or used any Binance product line in the last 90 days (this was 180 days; it changed to 90 days on 2026-03-24).[2]

Affiliate Recall program eligibility: never had a referrer, registered over 90 days and no trades in 90 days

Two cautions: this program lets an existing user who never had a referrer bind for the first time, not change an existing relationship; and you can't bind an existing user with a code — you must use an invitation link or QR code.

There's also a newer, separate path Binance published in late 2026: the Affiliates Rebind feature, initiated by an affiliate. Its reported conditions are stricter on activity but lower on account age — the user must have KYC done, no existing referrer, a master account, under $5,000 in trading volume in the last 90 days, and the binding only completes once the user reaches $150,000 in volume within 30 days.[3] Treat these as reported conditions and confirm on Binance's official page.

If you don't meet the conditions, you can't force the binding, and it's not worth reworking your account just for the rebate. The exact rules are in the official FAQ: Affiliate Recall program.


How to check whether you already have a referrer

If you want to bind, first confirm whether you already have a referral relationship:

  • New user: if you didn't enter a code at sign-up, you're normally in a "no referral relationship" state;
  • Existing user: you can check on Binance's Referral pages whether you already have a referrer or a referral relationship.

Checking whether you already have a referrer or referral relationship

The exact path depends on the current version of the Binance app or site. Rather than memorizing buttons, check the official FAQ: Affiliate Recall program, which lists the entries and conditions.


What to do in your situation

Your situation What to do
You haven't registered yet Enter AMY568 while registering; it costs nothing extra
You registered but have no referral relationship Check your re-binding eligibility under the Recall program first
You registered and already have a referral relationship Normally can't be re-bound; don't overthink it
You barely trade The fee benefit matters little; using it or not is fine
You're choosing between Binance and OKX Compare products, fees and experience first; don't decide by the code alone

What to do in your situation: a decision table by account status

In one sentence: the referral code is "a benefit you confirm after deciding", not "the reason to decide".


Mistakes I made

Mistake 1: thinking the rebate was "free crypto at sign-up"

Scenario: many people enter the code, register, then stare at the account waiting for money to arrive. Nothing arrives and they think they've been scammed.

Cause: taking the "fee benefit" as a "sign-up bonus". In reality it's a return or discount on part of the trading fee; if you don't trade, there's nothing.

Lesson: before using the code, understand it's a "fee discount", not a "sign-up bonus", so you don't set wrong expectations.

Mistake 2: skipping the code field to register faster

Scenario: to finish quickly, I left the code field empty thinking "I'll add it later".

Cause: I didn't know adding it later is a hassle (only some existing users can re-bind).

Lesson: registration is only a few steps; don't save those seconds. Enter AMY568 before moving on.


Promises you can dismiss right away

Among the promotion around Binance codes, some claims can be ignored the moment you see them:

Claim Why it's false
"40% or 50% rebate" The maximum Binance gives the invitee is 20%; the excess comes from the referrer's commission, presented as your discount
"Free crypto / USDT on sign-up" The code gives a fee rebate or discount, not a sign-up bonus; without trading there's nothing
"Cash back on deposit" or "rebate with a deposit" A normal code involves no deposits, transfers or collateral; if it asks for these, it's scam language
"Permanent and platform-guaranteed" Rebate rules can change with platform policy; no "locked forever" promise is credible

None of this has anything to do with a real referral code. A real code is one thing: enter it correctly at sign-up, then your trading fees are rebated or discounted according to the rule.


Security risks

  1. Verify the official site and app: download and sign in only through binance.com. Any private message, SMS or unknown site asking you to download a "Binance installer" or an "exclusive version" may be phishing.
  2. Don't use unknown codes for a "high rebate": codes promising percentages far outside the norm usually carry hidden clauses or are simply scams. The rebate doesn't put your money at risk, but account security matters more.
  3. The rebate has nothing to do with account security: using a code or not doesn't change security; what actually protects you are 2FA, the anti-phishing code and the withdrawal whitelist (see the registration tutorial).

FAQ

Q1: Is a Binance referral code mandatory? What if I skip it? No, it isn't mandatory; you can register without one. If you skip it, you normally can't add it later, but some existing users can check their eligibility through official re-binding (entry above). If you want the fee benefit, enter AMY568 when you sign up.

Q2: Who receives the rebate? How does it arrive? The invitee receives a benefit or return on the fees they pay later, according to the corresponding rule; it's not a one-time payout. The exact path and scope follow Binance's official rules.

Q3: Is using someone else's code the same as using AMY568 from this site? No. Different codes can give different benefits. AMY568 from this site gives a 20% rebate on spot and 20% on futures.

Q4: Can an existing user bind a referral code? Some can, but they must meet the Affiliate Recall program conditions: never had a referrer, registered over 90 days and no trades in the last 90 days; also, it can't be done with a code — only with an invitation link or QR code. See the official FAQ.

Q5: Is the AMY568 code legit? It's the code this site offers and it auto-fills when you register through our promotional link. A normal code never asks you for transfers, passwords or verification codes; the real risk usually comes from fake registration links, fake support agents and phishing pages.

Q6: If I use a code, does Binance charge me higher fees? No. The benefit makes you pay a little less in fees; using a code never charges you more.


Summary

The safest way is to enter the referral code during registration; if you skip it, you normally can't add it, though some existing users can use the official re-binding. AMY568 gives the invitee a fee benefit (not free crypto): 20% on spot and 20% on futures. Don't let the code decide which exchange you trade on.


If you're about to register

Your choice What to do
