*For order limit, there is an additional 10-second limit, 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 receive an increased order rate and message request limit. The last 30-day fill ratio is calculated as the total number of executed orders divided by the total order count over the past 30 days.
  • Rate limit requirements are not applied to link accounts.

Sub-accounts

Sub-accounts with the default rate limit will be included in the overall order rate limit.
For example:
User A has a 30-day Futures trading volume of 600,000,000 USDT and has enabled Futures accounts for 34 sub-accounts. Of these, 10 sub-accounts have a default order rate limit of 1,200 orders per minute, while 24 have a limit of 2,000 orders per minute. Therefore, User A’s total order rate limit is 60,000 orders per minute, reaching the maximum limit for User A. Consequently, User A cannot increase the order limit for any sub-account. However, User A can reduce their total rate limit by closing unused sub-accounts. For more details, please refer to the Binance Sub-Account Functions and Frequently Asked Questions.

Volume Share rate limit

Additionally, users with more than 0.5% of the exchange volume share among the combined USDⓈ-Margined Futures and COIN-Margined Futures markets over the last 30 days are entitled to an additional order rate and message request limits 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 is 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 is 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.
