*For order limit, there is an additional 10-second limit applicable to USDⓈ-M Futures, default at 300/10s. Any adjusted order limit will be ⅓ of the minute limit. e.g., 3,000/min carries a 1,000/10s order limit.

Users VIP 1 and above can view account details and requests for adjustments via the VIP Portal directly. Please contact your account manager if further assistance is needed.

Please note:

  • The 30-day Futures trading volume refers to the total trading volume from both USDⓈ-Margined Futures and COIN-Margined Futures markets.
  • Additional Order rate and Message Request limit: If a user’s last 30-day order fill ratio exceeds 1%, they will be granted additional order rate and message request limit. The last 30-day fill ratio is the total number of executed orders divided by the number of order counts over the past 30 days.
  • The rate limit requirement will not be applied to link accounts.

2. Sub-accounts

Sub-accounts with default rate limit will be included in the order rate limit.

Example: User A has a 30-day Futures trading volume of 600,000,000 USDT. They have enabled Futures accounts for 34 sub-accounts. 10 of the 34 sub-accounts have a default order rate limit of 1,200/min, while 24 have a limit of 2,000/min. Therefore, User A’s total order rate limit is 60,000/min, meaning they’ve reached their maximum order rate limit and cannot increase the order limit for any sub-account. However, User A might be able to reduce their total rate limit by closing some of their unused sub-accounts. For more details, please refer to the Binance Sub-Account Functions and Frequently Asked Questions.

3. Volume Share rate limit

Additionally, users with more than 0.5% exchange volume share among the combined USDⓈ-Margined Futures and COIN-Margined Futures markets in the last 30 days are entitled to an additional order rate and message request limit on top of the base limit, as shown in the table below.

For each bps above 0.5 volume share, users will be entitled to additional rate limit (1 bps = 0.01%).

Example 1) Participants who are 0.9% of total volume share will get:

Bracket A: 0.9% - 0.5%(minimum volume share) * 1,000 = 0.4% * 1,000 = 40bps * 1,000 = 40,000

Bracket B: Not applicable as participants volume share is below that bracket

Additional Rate Limit = 40,000

Example 2) Participants who are 3.9% of total volume share will get:

Bracket A: (1% - 0.5%) * 1,000 = 0.5% * 1,000 = 50 bps * 1,000 = 50,000

Bracket B: (2% - 1%) * 750 = 1% * 750 = 100 bps * 750 = 75,000

Bracket C: (3.9% - 2%) * 250 = 1.9% * 250 = 190 bps * 250 = 47,500

Additional Rate Limit = 172,500

Disclaimer: Binance reserves the right to revert or adjust the rate limit to an appropriate level if the user's current VIP level and/or Futures trading volume is not eligible for the maximum allowed rate limit. Binance also reserves the right to disable Futures trading or lower the default limit of a user.
