How to claim Bybit welcome bonus? (Rewards hub)

Accessing the Rewards Hub

1. Log in to your Bybit account using valid credentials and two-factor authentication if enabled.

2. Navigate to the top-right corner of the Bybit website or mobile app interface and locate the “Rewards” icon.

3. Click or tap on the Rewards icon to open the Rewards Hub dashboard.

4. Ensure your account has completed KYC Level 1 verification; unverified accounts cannot access bonus eligibility.

5. Confirm that your registered email and phone number are verified, as these are mandatory for reward distribution.

Eligibility Requirements

1. The welcome bonus is exclusively available to newly registered users who created their Bybit account within the last 7 days.

2. Users must not have previously held a funded Bybit derivatives or spot wallet before claiming.

3. A minimum first deposit of US$100 is required in either USDT or BTC to unlock the full bonus tier.

4. Accounts flagged for suspicious registration patterns—such as multiple sign-ups from identical IP ranges—are automatically disqualified.

5. Bonus eligibility resets upon account suspension or violation of Bybit’s Terms of Service.

Claiming the Bonus Step-by-Step

1. Within the Rewards Hub, locate the “Welcome Bonus” card under the “Active Offers” section.

2. Click “View Details” to review the exact bonus structure, including trading volume requirements and expiration timelines.

3. Select “Claim Now” — this action triggers an automated eligibility check against your deposit history and KYC status.

4. If approved, a confirmation modal displays the bonus amount, applicable asset type (e.g., USDT), and claim timestamp.

5. Click “Confirm Claim” to finalize; bonus funds appear instantly in your Spot Wallet under the “Bonus Balance” tab.

Using the Bonus Funds

1. Bonus balances cannot be withdrawn directly and are only usable for spot trading or as margin collateral in perpetual contracts.

2. Each trade executed with bonus funds contributes toward fulfilling the required 5x trading volume condition.

3. Losses incurred using bonus funds reduce the bonus balance proportionally but do not affect your main wallet equity.

4. Bonus funds expire 30 days after claim unless extended by a platform-wide promotion announcement.

5. Conversion of bonus assets into other tokens via swap functions is disabled until the bonus is fully utilized or expired.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I claim the welcome bonus more than once? A: No. Each unique UID, email, and phone number is permitted only one welcome bonus claim across all Bybit domains and subdomains.

Q: Why does the “Claim Now” button remain grayed out? A: This indicates incomplete KYC Level 1, insufficient deposit amount, or failure to meet the 7-day new-user window. Verify each criterion in the Rewards Hub tooltip.

Q: Is the welcome bonus subject to tax reporting? A: Yes. Bybit may issue Form 1099-MISC or equivalent regional tax documentation for bonus value exceeding jurisdictional thresholds, based on wallet activity logs.

Q: Does using bonus funds affect my referral rewards? A: No. Referral commissions are calculated solely on actual deposited funds and trading fees generated by referred users—not bonus-derived activity.
