Bybit new-user rewards are task-based, not automatic signup cash.

Creating an account with a referral code does not mean the full reward amount is immediately credited to your balance. In practice, Bybit campaigns usually require users to complete specific steps such as registration, KYC, event enrollment, first deposit, minimum asset retention, spot or derivatives trading volume, and manual reward claiming.

The exact reward package can also change by region and campaign.

As of August 2026, Bybit's Rewards Hub continues to provide different categories of rewards, while individual welcome campaigns may have their own deposit thresholds, trading-volume requirements, deadlines, and geographic restrictions. Bybit states that Rewards Hub tasks vary by user, activity, preferences, random allocation, and regional eligibility.

If you are creating a new Bybit account:

📌 Bybit Referral Code: BYOFFICIAL

🔗 Bybit Registration Link:
https://partner.bybit.com/b/BYOFFICIAL

For eligible users, BYOFFICIAL may also provide up to 33% trading fee benefits, subject to the referral page, account status, region, product, and current campaign conditions.

The important distinction is:

Referral Fee Benefit ≠ New User Reward ≠ Deposit Bonus ≠ Trading Bonus

They are separate mechanisms.

📌 Bybit New User Rewards: Quick Summary

Item	What It Means
Bybit Referral Code	BYOFFICIAL
Registration Link	https://partner.bybit.com/b/BYOFFICIAL
KYC Required	Usually yes for reward eligibility
Event Registration	Often required before deposit/trading
First Deposit Task	Common in welcome campaigns
Trading Volume Task	Common in welcome campaigns
Reward Types	Bonus, Coupon, Fee Saver, Airdrop, Fee Discount, APY Booster, Loss Cover Voucher, Trial Fund
Reward Amount	Depends on campaign and region
Claim Required	Some rewards must be manually claimed
Reward Expiry	Common; check each reward
Withdrawal of Bonus	Often restricted; rules depend on reward type

A practical workflow is:

Register with BYOFFICIAL → Complete KYC → Open Rewards Hub → Register for eligible campaign → Read deposit requirements → Make eligible deposit → Maintain required balance if necessary → Complete trading task → Wait for task verification → Claim reward before expiry

1. 🎁 What Are Bybit New User Rewards?

Bybit does not have one single permanent "signup bonus" that applies identically to every user.

The platform uses a combination of:

• Welcome campaigns
• Rewards Hub tasks
• Deposit missions
• Trading missions
• Referral campaigns
• Product-specific campaigns
• Regional promotions
• Limited-time airdrops
• Fee coupons
• Trading bonuses

Bybit's Rewards Hub currently includes reward categories such as Bonus, Coupons, Fee Savers, Airdrops, Fee Discounts, APY Boosters, Loss Cover Vouchers, and Trial Funds.

This means two new users registering on the same day can see different reward tasks depending on region and account eligibility.

Do not rely only on a screenshot from another user.

Open your own:

Bybit → Rewards Hub

and check the tasks actually displayed in your account.

2. 📊 Bybit Reward Types Compared

Reward Type	Typical Use	Withdrawable Directly?	Key Risk / Limitation
Trading Bonus	Offset eligible trading-related costs/losses	Usually no direct withdrawal	Subject to expiry and product rules
Coupon	Fee or product-specific benefit	Usually no	Must be used before expiration
Fee Saver	Reduce eligible fees	No	Only works on supported products
Airdrop	Token/USDT reward depending on campaign	Depends on campaign	May require claim
Fee Discount	Reduces eligible trading fees	No	Product and time restrictions
APY Booster	Increase eligible Earn yield	No	Limited product/period
Loss Cover Voucher	Offset eligible losses	No	Strict campaign rules
Trial Fund	Experience a product with promotional funds	Usually no	Profit/withdrawal rules differ

Bybit's Rewards Hub FAQ notes that bonuses have claim windows and expiration dates, and unused bonuses can be forfeited after expiration. Bonuses generally cannot simply be withdrawn as cash or used to pay withdrawal fees.

So when a campaign says:

"Get 20 USDT Bonus"

that does not necessarily mean:

"20 USDT instantly withdrawable to an external wallet."

Always read the reward type.

3. 📝 Step 1: Register With BYOFFICIAL

If you do not yet have a Bybit account:

📌 Bybit Referral Code: BYOFFICIAL

🔗 https://partner.bybit.com/b/BYOFFICIAL

Before completing registration, confirm the referral field shows:

BYOFFICIAL

The referral code should be checked during initial account creation.

After registration, do not assume you can freely add or replace a referral relationship.

A typical signup flow is:

Open BYOFFICIAL link → Email / Phone Registration → Confirm Referral Code → Create Password → Verify Email / Mobile → Create Account → Complete KYC

The referral relationship and the Rewards Hub are separate.

Using BYOFFICIAL does not automatically complete any deposit or trading mission.

4. 🪪 Step 2: Complete KYC Before Doing Reward Tasks

Many Bybit reward campaigns require identity verification before deposits or trading activity count.

Bybit's Rewards Hub rules currently state that users generally need at least the required identity-verification level to claim eligible rewards, and individual campaigns may impose additional conditions.

A standard flow is:

Profile → Identity Verification → Select Country/Region → Select Document → Upload ID → Face Verification → Submit

Use your real information.

Do not register multiple accounts to repeat new-user campaigns.

Bybit explicitly warns that multi-account registrations or abusive reward farming can result in related accounts being disqualified or restricted.

5. 🎯 Step 3: Open Rewards Hub Before You Deposit

This is one of the most important steps.

Do not assume that making a deposit automatically activates every new-user campaign.

Some Bybit campaigns require users to click:

Register Now

or:

Accept Task

before deposits or trades are counted.

A current Bybit welcome-campaign page states that only actions completed after event registration count toward the reward, and eligible participants must complete identity verification.

So the safer sequence is:

KYC → Rewards Hub → Open Campaign → Register / Accept → Read Rules → Deposit

not:

Deposit first → Discover campaign later

Past activity may not be retroactively counted.

6. 📊 Common New User Tasks on Bybit

Task Type	Typical Requirement	What to Check Before Starting
KYC Task	Complete identity verification	Required verification level
First Deposit	Deposit minimum amount	Eligible deposit methods
Net Deposit	Maintain qualifying net deposit	Withdrawal may reduce eligibility
Asset Retention	Hold funds for certain period	Number of required days
First Trade	Reach minimum trade amount	Eligible markets
Trading Volume	Reach cumulative volume	Spot vs derivatives eligibility
Product Task	Use Earn, P2P, Card, etc.	Product-specific conditions
Referral Task	Invite qualified user	Referral deposit/trading requirements

A Bybit referral-program FAQ updated in 2026 provides an example of a qualified referred user needing at least 100 USDT cumulative deposit within seven days and at least 500 USDT spot or derivatives volume within 30 days, although this is specific to that referral program rather than a universal welcome-reward rule.

That is why every campaign page must be read separately.

7. 💰 What Counts as an Eligible Deposit?

This is another area where users often lose eligibility.

Depending on the campaign, eligible deposit methods may include:

• Crypto Deposit
• Fiat Deposit
• One-Click Buy
• P2P
• Bank Card purchase

Bybit's first-deposit guide lists four common initial funding routes: Crypto Deposit, Fiat Deposit, One-Click Buy, and P2P Trading.

But a specific campaign may accept only some of them.

For example, one July 2026 welcome campaign required the first eligible deposit to be made via Debit/Credit Card, while other campaigns accepted broader deposit methods.

So never assume:

"Any USDT entering Bybit counts as a deposit task."

Read the campaign definition.

8. 📊 Deposit Methods Compared

Deposit Method	Usually Easy for Beginners?	May Count for Reward?	Main Cost / Risk
Crypto Deposit	✅	Often, campaign dependent	Wrong network/address
P2P	✅	Often, campaign dependent	Merchant/payment risk
One-Click Buy	✅	Often	Spread/payment-provider cost
Fiat Deposit	Depends on region	Often	Bank availability and fees
Debit/Credit Card	✅	Some campaigns specifically require it	Card fee / FX / rejection risk
Internal Bybit Transfer	Easy	Often does not count	May be excluded from campaign

Bybit's 2026 referral FAQ explicitly states that internal transfers between Bybit accounts do not count as qualifying deposits for that referral campaign.

Again, the individual campaign rules control.

9. 💵 Example: Deposit 100 USDT Reward Task

Suppose your Rewards Hub shows:

Deposit at least 100 USDT → Receive 10 USDT reward

Do not immediately send exactly 100 USDT without checking the rule.

You need to know whether the requirement means:

• Gross deposit
• Net deposit
• Minimum balance after fees
• First deposit only
• Cumulative deposit
• Deposit held for a fixed period

One Bybit campaign running from July through September 2026 requires a first deposit of at least 100 USDT for a 10 USDT airdrop and also requires the 100 USDT deposit to be maintained for at least 30 days for certain tasks. Rewards in that campaign must be claimed from Rewards Hub within 15 days after crediting or they expire.

So if the rule says net deposit ≥100 USDT, depositing 100 and immediately withdrawing 80 may invalidate the task.

10. 📈 Step 4: Complete the Trading Task

After the deposit mission, many welcome campaigns add a trading requirement.

Examples can include:

• First trade
• 100 USDT trading volume
• 500 USDT trading volume
• 5,000 USDT cumulative volume
• 20,000 USDT cumulative volume
• Higher-volume milestones

A July 2026 Bybit campaign offered rewards for KYC, a first eligible deposit, a first trade of at least $500, and additional trading-volume milestones.

But that campaign ended in July.

Do not copy its numbers into your August account and assume the same task is still available.

Use the live Rewards Hub task shown to you.

11. 📊 Spot vs Futures for Reward Tasks

Trading Activity	May Count?	What to Check
Spot Trading	Often	Whether zero-fee pairs count
USDT Perpetual	Often	Regional derivatives eligibility
USDC Derivatives	Campaign dependent	Product restrictions
Copy Trading	Campaign dependent	Often has separate rules
MT5	Frequently excluded from some campaigns	Read exact terms
Zero-Fee Pair	Often excluded	No normal fee/volume eligibility in some campaigns
Bot Trading	May be excluded	Check campaign rules

Bybit's referral-program FAQ specifically excludes grid-bot transactions, MT5, and zero-fee trading pairs from the qualifying trading volume in that particular campaign.

This is exactly why a user can trade "500 USDT" but still see task progress stuck at zero.

The trade must be an eligible trade, not merely any trade.

12. ⚠️ Do Not Overtrade Just to Unlock a Bonus

This is particularly important for volume-based missions.

Suppose the task says:

Trade 20,000 USDT → Get 15 USDT bonus

It would make no sense to take excessive market risk merely to earn the reward.

Trading costs may include:

• Maker/Taker fee
• Spread
• Slippage
• Funding fee
• Liquidation risk

The reward is useful only if the trading activity already fits your plan.

Do not use 20x leverage or repeatedly enter/exit positions just to generate volume for a relatively small promotional bonus.

13. 🎁 What Happens After You Complete a Task?

Do not assume the reward appears immediately.

The typical process is:

Complete Task → Task Verification → Reward Credited → Claim if Required → Reward Enters Account → Use Before Expiry

Bybit states that Rewards Hub task progress can take time to update, and the Rewards Hub rules note that rewards and tasks are time-limited.

Some campaign announcements also specify reward-crediting windows such as several days or business days after verification.

If the task does not update immediately, first check:

• Campaign deadline
• Whether you registered before acting
• KYC status
• Eligible deposit method
• Net deposit requirement
• Eligible trading product
• Trading-volume calculation
• Reward settlement time

14. ⏰ Reward Claim and Expiration Rules Matter

A reward can be successfully earned and still become worthless if you never claim or use it.

Check three dates:

1. Task Deadline
2. Claim Deadline
3. Reward Expiration Date

These are not always the same.

Bybit's Rewards Hub FAQ explains that certain bonuses must be claimed within a specified period and will later expire if unused.

So after completing the task, return to Rewards Hub instead of assuming the reward will remain available forever.

15. 📊 Task Deadline vs Claim Deadline vs Expiration

Date	Meaning	What Happens If You Miss It?
Task Deadline	Last time to finish task	Task fails
Campaign Registration Deadline	Last time to join event	Later activity may not count
Claim Deadline	Last time to manually claim reward	Reward may be forfeited
Reward Expiry	Last date to use claimed reward	Unused benefit may expire

This is one of the most common reasons users say:

"I completed the task but my bonus disappeared."

The task can be complete while the reward itself still has a separate claim or usage deadline.

16. 💡 Where Is Bybit Rewards Hub?

After logging into Bybit, search for:

Rewards Hub

Depending on App version and region, it may be accessible through:

• Home
• Profile
• Rewards
• Task Center
• Campaign pages

Once inside, check:

• New User / Welcome tasks
• Deposit missions
• Trading missions
• Available Rewards
• Claimed Rewards
• Expiring Rewards
• Coupons
• Bonuses
• Airdrops

Do not rely on an old screenshot because Bybit changes campaign placement and eligibility over time.

17. 🧾 Bonus vs Withdrawable USDT

This distinction deserves its own section.

Suppose the Rewards Hub says:

10 USDT Bonus

A bonus can often be used for eligible trading purposes, but it may not be directly withdrawable as 10 USDT.

Bybit's Rewards Hub FAQ explains that bonuses generally cannot be withdrawn directly, while profits generated using bonuses may be withdrawable according to the relevant rules.

Reward	Same as Cash USDT?	Direct Withdrawal?
USDT Airdrop	Often closer to normal asset	Campaign dependent
Trading Bonus	No	Usually no
Fee Coupon	No	No
Fee Discount	No	No
Trial Fund	No	Usually no
APY Booster	No	No
Loss Cover Voucher	No	No

Always read the word following the number.

10 USDT Airdrop and 10 USDT Bonus can behave differently.

18. 💸 BYOFFICIAL Fee Benefit vs New User Rewards

Feature	BYOFFICIAL Referral Benefit	Rewards Hub New User Reward
Activated Through	Referral registration	Campaign / task
Main Benefit	Eligible trading fee benefit	Bonus, coupon, airdrop, etc.
Requires Deposit Task?	Not necessarily	Often
Requires Trading Task?	Fee benefit applies when eligible trades occur	Often
May Expire?	Depends on referral conditions	Rewards commonly expire
Reward Amount Fixed?	Depends on fee generation/rules	Depends on task
Can Both Exist?	Potentially yes	Yes, if account qualifies

So a new user can potentially have:

• BYOFFICIAL referral fee benefits
• and separately: Rewards Hub welcome tasks

but eligibility for one does not automatically guarantee the other.

19. 📊 Why New Users See Different Bybit Rewards

Bybit explicitly notes that Rewards Hub tasks vary between users.

Possible reasons include:

• Country/region
• KYC jurisdiction
• Signup date
• Referral channel
• Account activity
• Previous campaign participation
• Product availability
• Randomized campaign allocation
• Reward inventory
• Regulatory restrictions

For example, Bybit has recently run region-specific campaigns for CIS countries, Vietnam, and Israel with different deposit and trading requirements.

Therefore, there is no responsible way to promise every user:

"Deposit X and you will definitely get Y."

The correct instruction is:

Open your own Rewards Hub and follow the live task conditions.

20. ⚠️ Common Reasons a Bybit Reward Does Not Arrive

1. You Did Not Register for the Campaign

Some events count only activity completed after clicking Register.

2. KYC Was Not Completed

Many rewards require identity verification.

3. Deposit Method Was Not Eligible

The task may require card deposit, P2P, fiat, or another specific channel.

4. Internal Transfer Was Used

Internal Bybit transfers may not count as deposits.

5. Net Deposit Fell Below the Requirement

Withdrawing funds can reduce qualifying net deposit.

6. Trading Product Was Excluded

Zero-fee pairs, MT5, or bots may be excluded in certain campaigns.

7. You Missed the Deadline

The task may have expired.

8. Reward Supply Was Limited

Some campaigns use first-come, first-served reward pools.

9. You Did Not Claim the Reward

Some rewards require manual claiming.

10. The Reward Expired

Unused bonuses or coupons can expire.

Q1: What is the Bybit referral code for August 2026?
The referral code used in this guide is:
BYOFFICIAL
Registration link:
https://partner.bybit.com/b/BYOFFICIAL

Q2: Does Bybit give a reward just for registration?
Do not assume so.
Most current reward structures require additional tasks such as KYC, campaign registration, deposits, or trading.

Q3: Where do I claim Bybit new-user rewards?
Open Rewards Hub and check available welcome tasks, earned rewards, and claim deadlines.

Q4: Do I need KYC?
Most meaningful new-user reward campaigns require the account to complete the specified identity-verification level.

Q5: Do I need to register for the event before depositing?
For many campaigns, yes.
If the page has a Register Now / Accept button, complete that step before deposit or trading unless the terms explicitly say otherwise.

Q6: Does P2P deposit count?
It can count in some campaigns, but not all.
Check the campaign's eligible deposit methods.

Q7: Does an internal transfer from another Bybit account count?
Often not. Specific Bybit programs explicitly exclude internal transfers from qualifying deposit calculations.

Q8: Can I withdraw immediately after completing the deposit task?
Maybe not.
Some campaigns use net deposit or require funds to remain in the account for a minimum period. One July–September 2026 campaign, for example, requires a qualifying deposit to remain for at least 30 days for specified tasks.

Q9: Does every trade count toward trading volume?
No.
Some campaigns exclude zero-fee pairs, MT5, bots, or other product categories.

Q10: Is a 10 USDT Bonus the same as 10 withdrawable USDT?
No.
Bonuses generally have usage and withdrawal restrictions. Check the reward type.

Q11: Why did my task not update?
Possible reasons include task-verification delay, incomplete KYC, ineligible deposit method, trading on an excluded product, or failure to register for the event first.

Q12: Can rewards expire?
Yes.
Tasks, claim periods, coupons, bonuses, and other reward types can have separate expiration dates.

Q13: Can I create multiple Bybit accounts to claim the welcome reward again?
Do not do this. Bybit's Rewards Hub rules prohibit abusive multi-account reward farming and can disqualify related accounts.

✅ Conclusion: Register, Check Rewards Hub, Then Deposit and Trade

The correct way to approach Bybit new-user rewards in August 2026 is not:

Register → Deposit random amount → Trade randomly → Hope a bonus appears

A better sequence is:

Register with BYOFFICIAL → Complete KYC → Secure account → Open Rewards Hub → Register for the eligible campaign → Read the deposit requirement → Deposit using an eligible method → Maintain the required balance if necessary → Complete eligible trading volume → Wait for verification → Claim reward before expiry

📌 Bybit Referral Code: BYOFFICIAL

🔗 Bybit Registration Link:
https://partner.bybit.com/b/BYOFFICIAL

Bybit's current reward system is highly campaign-based. The platform has recently offered campaigns ranging from relatively small first-deposit rewards to larger volume-based prize structures, but availability varies by region and date. Rewards Hub itself also states that the tasks displayed can differ among users.

So the number shown on another user's screenshot is not the number you should plan around.

The only reliable reward amount is the one displayed inside your own Bybit Rewards Hub, together with its deposit threshold, trading requirement, deadline, reward type, and claim rules.

Platform	Code	Main Use Case
Bybit	BYOFFICIAL	Derivatives, TradFi, MT5, Bybit Card
Binance	BNOFFICIAL	Liquidity, spot, broad ecosystem
OKX	OKOFFICIALLY	CEX + Web3 Wallet
Bitget	BGOfficial	Copy trading
Nado	qp0fptC	On-chain CLOB, xStocks, unified margin
MSX	1KSn77	RWA and tokenized-stock-related markets

⚠️ Risk Notice: Welcome rewards are promotional incentives, not guaranteed investment returns. Completing trading-volume missions can generate fees, slippage, funding costs, and market losses that exceed the value of the reward. Campaign terms, geographic availability, reward inventory, KYC requirements, deposit methods, trading eligibility, and claim periods can change. Always follow the live terms shown in your Bybit account before depositing or trading.
