Buy Bitcoin with USDT on BingX: deposit, trade BTC/USDT in minutes with liquidity and low Spot fees.

If you already have USDT, you can buy Bitcoin with USDT on BingX in minutes. Deposit USDT to your BingX account, move it to your Spot account if needed, then trade on pairs like BTC/USDT or ETH/USDT. If you do not have USDT yet, you can first acquire it on BingX via Quick Buy, P2P, or a crypto deposit, then swap to BTC or any supported coin. Choose the correct blockchain network for your USDT deposit and double-check the address before sending.
 
Using USDT as your base asset keeps the flow simple. You avoid fiat wait times, trade directly on deep-liquidity markets, and pay standard Spot fees. Most users either place a Market order for instant execution or a Limit order to target a specific price.
 
One practical note. If you plan to buy Bitcoin with USDT and your USDT was purchased via credit or debit card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay, BingX applies T+1 sell and withdrawal limits to the equivalent value for security. This does not affect Spot trading, but it can delay withdrawing or P2P selling those newly purchased funds until the next day. On-chain USDT deposits are not subject to this card-related rule. Plan accordingly.

Key points upfront

• USDT networks: BingX supports multiple networks for USDT, including TRC20, ERC20 and BEP20. Always match the network on the sending platform with the one you select on BingX, or funds can be lost.
 
• Fees: Base Spot fees on BingX start from 0.1% maker and 0.1% taker, with VIP tiers offering lower rates.
 
• Wallet routing: Spot trades use the Spot Account balance. If your USDT sits in another account, move it with Transfer before placing an order.
 
• Order types: Use Market for speed or Limit for price control. You can review or cancel open orders until filled.
 
• Convert option: Alternatively use Convert to swap USDT to BTC or ETH at a quoted rate with a streamlined flow.
