Bitget updates liquidity incentive program and PRO fee grouping rules

Bitget said it updated its liquidity incentive program and Bitget PRO fee grouping rules on June 30, 2026 at 17:00 UTC+8, revising market maker onboarding, monthly assessments, fee schedules and account benefits for spot and futures trading. The exchange set five market maker tiers based on account assets, supporting documents and monthly performance, with spot assessments using weighted maker volume or market making score rankings from the top 10% through 90% and futures using thresholds from the top 10% through 80%. Bitget said spot pairs are grouped into Group A and Group B and futures pairs into Group A, Group B and Group C, with maker rebates as low as -0.015% for spot Group B Tier 1 and -0.010% for futures Group B Tier 1, while taker fees remain based on PRO or VIP tier. In separate notices, Bitget said it changed the funding interval for TAIKOUSDT and SLXUSDT perpetual futures from every four hours to every hour on June 30, lowered collateral ratios for 17 unified trading account margin coins from 2026-07-01 04:00 UTC, and adjusted leverage, position tiers and maintenance margin rates for multiple perpetual futures batches including HUSDT, VANRYUSDT, TREEUSDT, TLMUSDT, LABUSDT, FFUSDT, DEXEUSDT, TUTUSDT, TAIKOUSDT, RAYUSDT, LYNUSDT, OUSDT, NAORISUSDT, JCTUSDT, BSBUSDT, BEATUSDT, USUALUSDT, MAGICUSDT, GALAUSDT, CVCUSDT, BANUSDT, AXLUSDT, 1000SATSUSDT, BIGTIMEUSDT, ARKUSDT, and a further batch covering ZILUSDT, XVGUSDT, RUNEUSDT, MEMEUSDT, CHZUSDT, AUCTIONUSDT, ATUSDT, ANKRUSDT and AIOUSDT. That latest batch is scheduled for 2026-07-01 13:00 UTC, with new standards applying immediately to new positions and from 2026-07-04 13:00 UTC to existing ones, and Bitget warned the changes could lift maintenance margin requirements, trigger liquidation risk and lead to trading bot termination if positions exceed revised limits. In a further operational notice, Bitget said it will upgrade the BGB/USDT spot and spot margin pair on 2026-07-03 from 11:00 to 11:30 UTC+8, during which all trading activity in that pair will be restricted.
