How to claim the Weex fee discount
The lifetime fee discount and welcome bonus on Weex can only be activated at registration. Existing accounts cannot retroactively attach a referral code. To claim:
- Register through the link on this page. Referral code
BCRWEEXis carried in the URL, so it is applied without being typed. - Decide whether to verify. Weex lists KYC as Optional: trading opens before documents are submitted, and the unverified withdrawal ceiling is the constraint to read before depositing.
- Fund the account. The minimum deposit recorded for Weex is $10; welcome-bonus tiers above that carry their own thresholds on the exchange's promotion page.
- Execute one qualifying trade. At the entry tier that costs 0.10% on spot and 0.08% as a futures taker, before the referral reduction is applied.
- The Up to 60% rebate reduction then attaches to the account for its lifetime. It is not a promotional window and does not need to be renewed.
