How to change language settings on Bybit? (User preferences)

Accessing Language Preferences

1. Log into your Bybit account using your registered email or phone number and password.

2. Click the user profile icon located in the top-right corner of the interface, typically represented by an avatar or initials.

3. From the dropdown menu, select Settings to open the account configuration panel.

4. Navigate to the Language section under the General tab.

5. A list of supported languages appears, including English, Chinese (Simplified), Korean, Japanese, Spanish, Arabic, Vietnamese, Thai, Indonesian, and Russian.

Changing Interface Language

1. Click the current language label to activate the selection dropdown.

2. Scroll through the list and click on your preferred language.

3. The platform instantly updates most UI elements—menus, buttons, tooltips, and navigation labels—to reflect the new language.

4. No confirmation prompt appears; changes take effect immediately without requiring a page refresh.

5. Some dynamically loaded content—such as real-time order book labels or chart annotations—may require manual page reload to fully render in the selected language.

Language Behavior Across Devices

1. Desktop web interface retains the selected language setting across sessions once saved.

2. Mobile app users must adjust language separately within the Bybit iOS or Android application settings.

3. Browser-level language detection does not override user-selected preferences unless the setting is explicitly reset to “Auto”.

4. Logged-in users retain language choice even after clearing cookies or switching devices.

5. Multi-account holders must configure language individually for each account, as preferences are tied to user ID, not device or browser.

Supported Language Coverage

1. Core trading functions—including spot, futures, and options order placement—are fully localized in all listed languages.

2. Legal documentation, such as Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, remains available only in English and Chinese regardless of UI language selection.

3. Email notifications default to the language set in user preferences, but certain system alerts—like KYC verification status updates—may appear in English if translated versions are unavailable.

4. Customer support chat interface adapts its display language but routes queries to agents based on regional availability rather than language preference.

5. API documentation and developer portal content remain exclusively in English, irrespective of frontend language settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does changing language affect the denomination of displayed asset values?A: No. Asset values always appear in their native ticker format—BTC remains BTC, USDT remains USDT—regardless of language selection.

Q: Can I use multiple languages simultaneously—for example, English menus with Chinese tooltips?A: No. Bybit enforces a single unified language setting across the entire interface.

Q: Why do some error messages still appear in English after switching languages?A: Certain backend-generated errors—especially those related to network timeouts or exchange engine rejections—are hardcoded in English and cannot be localized.

Q: Is Mandarin Chinese available in both Simplified and Traditional variants?A: Only Simplified Chinese is supported. Traditional Chinese is not included in the current language list.
