BingX Upgraded Trial Fund Explained

Dear Users,

In order to enhance user experience, BingX has upgraded the trial funds feature. It's now accessible through "My Vouchers", and relevant activation processes, transfer rules, expiration rules, and Offset Ratio have been updated. To ensure a seamless experience, we recommend updating the app to version v3.65.0 or above.

Please note:
1. Starting from 2023-08-01, BingX will no longer support the transfer of trial funds (including previously activated trial funds) between different futures accounts.
2. The new trial fund is issued in the form of voucher and adopts a new activation process, which requires users to go to My Vouchers to activate it. The activated trial funds of the old type remain unaffected and can still be used.
3. Regarding expiration time and Offset Ratio, if a user possesses both the new and old types of trial funds, redeeming the new trial funds may require you to use the existing ones first. After successful redemption, the new Offset Ratio and expiration time will be applied. If you don't redeem the new trial funds, the expiration time and Offset Ratio of your existing trial funds will remain unchanged. Specific scenarios are as follows:
