Conditions and limits

  • Reward eligibility is determined at merchant settlement, including purchases authorised before the effective date but settled later.
  • Subscription rebates require eligible direct billing and share the monthly tier reward cap. App-store payments do not qualify.
  • The existing welcome package remains up to 110 USDT cashback plus a separate eligible 10 USDT first-top-up reward; its cashback now requires crypto-funded purchases. These are Global terms, not an update to Bybit EU.

Funding source now determines rewards

From October 5, 2026 at 10:00 UTC, only crypto-funded purchases earn cashback and Rewards Points. Eligibility uses merchant settlement time; fiat-funded purchases earn neither.

Fiat remains usable for card payments, but those payments do not earn cashback or Rewards Points. Eligible subscriptions include ChatGPT Plus, Claude Pro, Netflix, Spotify, TradingView, Financial Times, Shahid and iQIYI.

Existing welcome package

The welcome package headline is up to 120 USDT, consisting of up to 110 USDT cashback and an eligible 10 USDT first-top-up reward, with the original application, market and task restrictions.
