Bitget Launches VIP Fast Track Program Across Futures, Spot and Asset Holdings

 

VICTORIA, Seychelles, April 6 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bitget, the world's largest Universal Exchange (UEX), today launched the VIP Fast Track Program, a new campaign designed to help users reach higher VIP levels through personalized trading routes across futures, spot, and asset holdings. The launch marks the first phase of Bitget’s broader UEX VIP season, a platform-wide initiative built around the principle of maximum perks and minimum fees for high-value users.

Unlike traditional exchange VIP systems that rely primarily on fixed asset thresholds, VIP Fast Track introduces progression paths based on trading activity and account growth. Futures users can unlock up to 300 USDT in cash vouchers, spot users can receive up to 120 USDT in fee rebate vouchers, and asset-focused users can access up to 7% USDT yield booster vouchers while advancing toward official VIP status.

Bitget has also launched a new VIP Detail Page inside the app, allowing users to track progress toward the next tier through a mobile-first dashboard. The page calculates qualification requirements in real time and displays available benefits across tiers, including fee reductions, airdrops, and global lifestyle rewards.

“VIP systems have traditionally focused on static thresholds, but user growth on a platform is more dynamic than that,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. “The Fast Track program is designed to make progression more practical by linking trading activity directly to immediate rewards and clearer upgrade paths.”

Each progression milestone under the campaign includes what Bitget defines as a settlement-based reward structure, where users receive immediate bonuses upon reaching designated qualification targets. These rewards are designed to partially offset trading costs during the upgrade process and reduce friction for users moving from temporary VIP access toward official V1, V2, and V3 status.

The launch also precedes the next phase of UEX VIP Season, which will introduce a dedicated airdrop campaign between April and May with a total prize pool of 1 million UEX alpha assets, including tokenized stock distributions and an additional project to be announced later. Individual campaign rounds are expected to include prize pools of up to 500,000.

Bitget’s VIP ecosystem continues to expand as the platform increases its focus on retaining high-frequency and high-value users through a combination of trading incentives, fee efficiency, and access to exclusive experiences linked to future seasonal campaigns.

Bitget Brings Crypto Into Everyday Spending With APAC Launch of Bitget Card

VICTORIA, Seychelles, April 6 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), in partnership with Visa and DCS, launched the Bitget Card across selected markets in Asia Pacific (APAC), extending crypto out of exchanges into everyday spending and marking another step toward a more unified financial experience where digital assets work quietly in the background of daily life.

The initial rollout makes a virtual Bitget Card available to APAC users, with a physical card set to follow in the coming months. Issued in collaboration with DCS and powered by Visa’s global payments network, Bitget Card enables users to convert crypto into fiat for everyday spending across merchants across APAC. Payments are processed instantly and feel no different from a standard card transaction, removing the friction typically associated with off-ramping or manual conversion. Crypto operates quietly in the background while users transact through familiar payment rails, supporting seamless everyday adoption

“Partnerships across the ecosystem are key to bringing digital assets into everyday payments,” said Joan Han, COO of DCS and DeCard. “By combining Bitget’s ecosystem with DCS’s issuing infrastructure and Visa’s global acceptance network, the Bitget Card enables users to move from crypto holdings to everyday spending through a familiar card experience.”

To accompany the launch, Bitget Card offers one of the most competitive reward structures in the region, with up to 20% cashback on eligible spending, capped at $800. Low foreign exchange fees further position the card for globally mobile users who expect spending tools to work across borders without friction.

“For crypto to become truly mainstream, it can’t ask people to constantly think about it,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. “It should operate quietly in the background while people go about living their lives. Bitget Card reflects the shift where crypto becomes infrastructure, not an interruption.”

The launch aligns with Bitget’s Universal Exchange vision, which brings crypto, derivatives, and tokenised traditional assets into a single ecosystem. By extending that framework into payments through partnerships with Visa and DCS, Bitget is narrowing the gap between digital assets and real-world commerce, allowing users to move between markets and everyday spending without switching contexts.

Additional features include enhanced benefits for VIP members, including higher rebates and complimentary physical card issuance once available.

“As digital assets become more widely held, consumers increasingly expect simple and reliable ways to use that value in everyday life,” said Adeline Kim, Country Manager for Singapore & Brunei at Visa. “The Bitget Card reflects how payments are evolving — enabling a seamless move from digital assets to everyday spending through a familiar Visa card experience, at scale and across borders.”

Looking ahead, Bitget plans to expand the Bitget Card with premium physical designs, fee-free ATM withdrawals of up to $100 per month, and access to a global network of airport lounges, reinforcing its positioning as a long-term lifestyle payment tool.

As financial systems continue to converge, the line between crypto and traditional finance is becoming less visible to consumers. With Bitget Card, digital assets integrate seamlessly into everyday payments, allowing users to spend, travel, and move globally through familiar card experiences.

The expansion strengthens its position in providing rights-cleared datasets for research and development and large-scale AI applications.

The datasets are fully rights-cleared for commercial use and aligned with global compliance standards such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

They include high-fidelity audio assets recorded at 48 kilohertz (kHz)/16-bit or higher, enabling capture of both studio-quality speech and diverse acoustic environments.

In addition, the datasets support detection of harmful language, including hate speech and abusive prompts, and include evaluation datasets aligned with international benchmarks such as MMSU to assess reasoning and linguistic nuance in Japanese.

The solution also incorporates Japan-specific audio, including traditional and urban sound environments, to support multimodal and spatial AI applications.

The datasets are available through AI Data Recipe, which offers both ready-to-use datasets and customised data production, including speaker casting, recording and annotation tailored to specific development needs.
