Introduction

To help users better understand and experience CoinUp contract trading products and become familiar with contract trading mechanisms and risk control logic, the CoinUp platform will periodically issue contract trial funds (Trial Fund / Bonus Fund) to eligible users.

Futures Trial Funds are USDT issued by the platform and will be credited directly to the user’s Futures Wallet. During trading, they are automatically used to offset the following costs:

• Opening fees

• Closing fees

• Funding fees

• Trading losses (negative PnL)

When the cumulative net profit generated from trial fund trading reaches:

• Profits generated from trial fund trading must reach 50 USDT before withdrawal.
• Users can apply to withdraw a portion of their profits (maximum 200 USDT per transaction).

Users may also trade futures using only Trial Funds, without depositing any of their own funds.

Core Principles

• Reduce trading fees without limiting profits

• All leverage levels and order types are supported

• Unified margin model (Trial Funds + personal funds)

• Only one Trial Fund can be activated at a time
