If you are a KYC-verified user, you can start earning immediately. No need to sign up for anything extra.

What Is Write to Earn on Binance Square?
As the name suggests, the idea of Write to Earn is very simple: you write a post, and if readers trade after reading it, you earn a share of their trading fees.
Who Can Join?
Starting from February 9, 2026, the program is open to all users in eligible regions. All you have to do is complete your identity verification (KYC). You don't need to fill out a registration form. Once you post your first piece of eligible content on Binance Square, you are automatically enrolled in the program.
How to Earn
You can earn money when your content leads users to a trade. Here is the step-by-step process:
Post content: This can be a short message, a long article, a video, or even a poll.
Add a "cashtag": This is the coin symbol with a dollar sign (e.g., $BTC or $BNB).
Readers click: A reader sees your post and clicks on that cashtag or a price chart widget in your post.
They trade: If that reader makes a trade shortly after clicking, you get a commission from their trading fee.
How Much Can You Make?
The more valid trades your posts generate, the higher your chances of earning. The system uses levels to reward the best creators.
Basic vs. Bonus Commission
Binance Square’s Write to Earn program starts with a 20% Basic Commission for every creator. This means if a reader pays a $1 fee on a trade after clicking a cashtag in your posts, you get $0.20.
At the end of every week, Binance ranks all creators. If you are in the top 100, you get a bonus.

Getting paid
Binance calculates rewards from Monday to Sunday. You get paid by the following Thursday. The payment is done in USDC and goes straight to your Binance Funding Account.
Note that you need to earn at least 0.1 USDC in a week to get paid. If you earn less than that, your balance resets to zero for the next week.
Tips for Success
Remember that you only get paid when readers trade after clicking your cashtags or chart widgets. If you want to increase your chances of earning, follow these simple tips:
Always use cashtags: If you are writing about Bitcoin, make sure to include the cashtag $BTC.
Use widgets: You can also add a price chart directly into your post. This is helpful for readers and good for your earnings.
Be helpful: Share real strategies or news. If readers trust you, they are more likely to follow and trade from your posts.
Follow trends: Write about coins that are popular or trending. The system highlights trending coins, so you can use that to your advantage.
Important Rules to Remember
There are a few situations where you will not earn a commission. It’s important to know these so you aren't surprised later.
Old posts: Your content only earns money for seven days after you publish it.
Referrals: If a user signed up for Binance using your referral link, you won't get "Write to Earn" commissions from them. You most likely get standard referral rewards instead.
Zero fees: If a trade has no fee (like some stablecoin pairs), there is no commission for you to collect.
No self-earning: You cannot earn commissions on your own trades.
