Trade ReclaimHow Trade Reclaim Works
An end-to-end explanation of how Trade Reclaim turns your exchange trading fees into USDT cashback, with a worked example.
Trade Reclaim is a non-custodial crypto trading-fee cashback platform: you sign up to a supported exchange through Trade Reclaim's referral link, link your public Exchange UID, and Trade Reclaim returns 30-50% of your own trading fees to you as USDT. Here is the full mechanism, end to end.
The mechanism, step by step
- Sign up through the referral link. You create your exchange account using the link or code shown in the setup wizard. This tags your account to Trade Reclaim's official affiliate agreement with that exchange.
- Add your public UID. In the Trade Reclaim dashboard you paste your Exchange UID, a public identifier. Nothing else: no API keys, no password, no withdrawal access.
- The exchange reports your volume. As you trade, the exchange reports your UID's trading volume to Trade Reclaim's affiliate account and pays Trade Reclaim a commission on the fees you generated.
- Trade Reclaim pays you back. Trade Reclaim returns 30-50% of that commission to you as USDT cashback, credited per trade within 48 hours.
The cashback is a percentage of YOUR fees
This is the part most traders misread. The cashback is sized as a percentage of the trading fees you personally pay. It is not a discount on the fee itself, and it is not a cut of what Trade Reclaim earns. You keep paying the exchange's normal fee, then a slice of it comes back to you.
Worked example. Say you trade on an exchange where your cashback rate is 30%, and in a month you pay $1,000 in trading fees. Trade Reclaim returns 30% of that, so $300 lands in your dashboard as USDT. On BitMart futures the rate is 50%, so the same $1,000 in fees would return $500. The more you trade, the more fees you pay, and the more comes back.
Note: native-token fee discounts stack on top of cashback. If you also hold a token like BNB or MX to lower the fee at the exchange, you get the lower fee and cashback on what you still pay.
What Trade Reclaim can and cannot do
Trade Reclaim is non-custodial. It only ever sees your public UID and the affiliate-reported volume. It cannot see your balances or positions, cannot move funds, and never holds your money: the exchange keeps 100% control of your account. Trade Reclaim itself requires no KYC, only an email and your UID, though individual exchanges may.
Getting paid
Cashback accrues in your dashboard balance. Once you reach the 20 USDT minimum, you request a payout on demand and it is processed within 48 hours, paid in USDT on ERC-20 or TRC-20 to a wallet address you set in account settings. There is no cap, but only one payout request can be pending at a time.
FAQ
Does Trade Reclaim cost anything?
No. There is no fee to use it. Trade Reclaim earns the affiliate commission from the exchange and shares 30-50% of it back with you.
How fast does cashback start?
Linking a UID takes about 60 seconds. UID verification can take up to 48 hours, after which cashback accrues from your next trade and is credited per trade within 48 hours.
Why did I get no cashback on some trades?
The most common cause is an exchange account that was not created through the Trade Reclaim link, so your volume is not tagged to the affiliate. Other causes are an excluded contract type or BitMart spot, which earns no cashback.
