Binance has announced updates to its VIP Invitation Program, which now includes the acceptance of external asset holdings and offers a two-month VIP+1 upgrade with extension criteria. The program also features a promotional period from October 1 to October 30, 2025.

According to Binance, the updated VIP Invitation Program formalizes a process for high-volume traders transitioning between trading venues. Participants can prove their activity elsewhere or bring assets to receive fast-tracked benefits and secure them by meeting volume targets. The update allows for holdings from other platforms in addition to trading-volume proofs and pairs a two-month VIP+1 trial with a possible extension. Limited-quantity perks are offered to encourage early participation. From a market-competition perspective, private exchanges competing on fees, service, and perks enhance consumer choice without new mandates or subsidies, benefiting sophisticated users who prioritize execution quality and capital efficiency.

The release specifies thresholds and timelines: the first 50 successful applicants during October 1–30, 2025 will receive a VIP Swag Pack. Applications require completing a survey plus providing screenshots or recordings as proof. Minimum qualifications include $1 million equivalent in 30-day spot volume or $15 million in futures, or $500,000 in external holdings. Successful entrants receive a two-month VIP+1 upgrade; maintaining at least 70% of the VIP+1 30-day volume requirement in the last week adds one more month. Virtual cards are not involved; instead, a VIP account manager follows up within seven working days, and upgrades reset to standard tiers afterward per normal criteria.

Fee economics underpin the value of the VIP program. Binance’s public fee schedule shows progressively lower maker/taker rates as VIP levels rise, with large notional volumes unlocking materially tighter pricing and higher API/withdrawal limits—key for funds and market makers managing net trading costs. While exact discounts vary by asset class and tier, the schedule documents reductions across at least ten VIP levels, illustrating how a temporary VIP+1 can reduce effective fees during evaluation and migration. For institutions, even single-basis-point reductions compound over millions in turnover, offering an incentive to participate in invitation programs that credit external activity.

Founded in 2017 by Changpeng Zhao and Yi He, Binance operates as a global cryptocurrency platform spanning spot, margin, derivatives, and ancillary Web3 services. Since November 2023, Richard Teng has served as CEO.
