Bitunix Rewards Guide 1: Futures Bonus on Bitunix

This guide explains how the Bitunix Futures Bonus works, including key rules, how to redeem and use it correctly, and practical tips to get more value while keeping your futures trading costs under control.

Futures Bonus

A Futures Bonus is promotional credit for perpetual futures. It is designed to support your position setup and trading costs, and it is separate from your own balance.

Here is how it typically works:

Used for futures trading only: A Futures Bonus can be applied when you open positions in perpetual futures.

Can help cover costs and losses: Depending on the reward rules shown on the card, it may be used to offset items like trading fees, funding fees, and trading losses.

Deducted at settlement when applicable: When a position is closed at a loss, the relevant fees will be deducted from the bonus. When a position is closed for a profit, offset operations will be executed if the offset ratio is set at 100% or 50%, while no offset will be applied if the ratio is 0%. The platform will prioritize the use of the bonus for deductions before drawing on the user’s own funds. The bonus itself cannot be withdrawn, but the profits generated from trading with the bonus are withdrawable.

Consumes before your own funds: If the bonus is eligible for the scenario, it is generally used before your personal margin is deducted.

Not withdrawable: You cannot withdraw the Futures Bonus itself.

Profits may be withdrawable: If you generate profits while trading with a Futures Bonus, those profits can usually be withdrawn, subject to the platform’s applicable rules.

Always check the reward card details for:

Redeem deadline (latest time you can redeem)
Validity after redemption (how long it remains usable once redeemed)
Any special conditions or restrictions tied to the bonus

Futures Bonus Benefits

Bitunix Futures Bonus: More flexibility, more protection, more upside

Bitunix Futures Bonus is a promotional benefit designed for perpetual futures traders. It supports key moments of the trading lifecycle and helps you trade with more flexibility and stronger downside control, so you can act on opportunities with greater confidence.

1. Covers multiple use cases across your futures workflow

A Futures Bonus can be applied across common futures scenarios. Depending on the reward rules, it may be used as position margin support and may also help offset eligible costs, such as trading fees and losses, without requiring extra transfers from your own balance. This can improve capital efficiency and keep your funds more flexible.

2. Combined margin effect: trade with more usable capacity

When you open a position, the Futures Bonus may be calculated together with your own USDT as eligible margin, based on the product rules. This structure can expand your usable trading capacity, letting you execute strategies more efficiently with the same principal.

3. Validity window that fits active traders and frequent execution

Futures Bonus rewards typically come with a defined validity period (for example, 7 days, depending on the specific reward). For active traders, this makes it easier to apply the bonus across multiple trades during the valid window and potentially reduce eligible costs across frequent execution.

4. Priority deduction helps protect your principal

When fees, losses, or other eligible costs are deducted, the system may prioritize using the Futures Bonus first (subject to the reward rules). This can reduce the amount taken from your own balance and provide a stronger buffer for your principal.

5. Flexible deduction ratios that match different trading styles

Deduction ratio > 0% (for example, 50% or 100%): acts as a loss buffer The Futures Bonus may share eligible losses and costs based on the specified ratio, helping slow down how quickly your own funds are consumed during volatile market moves.
Deduction ratio = 0%: protection mode for extreme conditions Under some configurations, a 0% deduction setting may mean the bonus is not consumed during normal trading, but can activate as protection when your own margin is exhausted. In extreme volatility, the system may switch the deduction logic based on platform rules to help reduce the risk of excessive loss.

Best Use Scenarios for Futures Bonus

Best Use Scenario 1: New to Perpetual Futures

If you are new to perpetual futures, still learning the rules, or prefer lower risk, a Futures Bonus can give you a buffer while you practice. Use it as eligible margin support (based on the coupon rules), and choose a deduction ratio like 50% or 100% if available. This can help offset part of eligible fees or losses, so you can gain experience with less pressure on your own funds.

Best Use Scenario 2: High-Frequency Trading

If you trade frequently, such as short-term momentum, scalping, or spot and futures basis strategies, a Futures Bonus can help you control costs across repeated entries and exits. When the coupon supports fee or loss deductions, it can reduce the impact of eligible costs across multiple trades during the validity window. Always confirm the coupon’s valid period and deduction rules in the reward card before redeeming.

Aug to Oct 2023: BTC traded within a range and showed repeated swings.

Best Use Scenario 3: High Volatility Risk Control

During sharp market moves, liquidation risk and rapid drawdowns become more likely. If your Futures Bonus supports a 0% deduction setting, it can function like a protection mode where the bonus is not consumed in normal conditions, and protection may activate only when your own margin is close to being exhausted, based on the product rules. In extreme volatility, the system may adjust the deduction behavior per the coupon terms. This does not eliminate risk, but it can help reduce the chance of outsized losses under the coupon’s rule set.

Oct 11, 2025, 4:00 a.m.: BTC saw a sharp volatility spike.

Best Use Scenario 4: Longer-Hold Trend Positions With Higher Carrying Costs

If you hold positions longer, your strategy may be more exposed to ongoing costs such as funding fees. When your Futures Bonus allows eligible cost deductions, it can help offset part of those costs while the coupon remains valid. Combined with priority deduction (where applicable), this can reduce how much of your own balance is consumed during longer holding periods.

Nov 11 to Nov 21, 2025: BTC moved into a clear downtrend.

Tips for Using Reward Coupons Efficiently

1. Match the coupon to the trading scenario

Use each coupon for what it was designed to do. For example, apply a Futures Bonus as eligible futures margin support, and use fee-reduction coupons specifically to offset trading fees. This helps you avoid spending high-value coupons in situations where they deliver limited value.

2. Watch the expiry date and plan your usage

Keep a simple record of your coupons and sort them by expiration date. Use coupons that are about to expire first. Save longer-validity coupons for periods when you expect higher trading activity and higher fees.

3. Join platform campaigns to maximize benefits

During platform campaigns such as trading competitions or anniversary events, use limited-time coupons alongside campaign participation. Where allowed, this can help you capture both event rewards and coupon savings at the same time.

4. Complete tasks regularly to build your coupon balance

Check the Task Center often and complete available tasks, such as inviting friends, daily check-ins, and trading volume goals. Over time, this is a reliable way to earn more coupons and grow your reward reserve.
