Weex referral code guide
How to sign up on Weex with code gfek
- Use our Weex registration link. It contains vipCode=gfek, which acts as the referral.
- Notice that the code is entirely lowercase: gfek. Typing it in capitals may not be recognised, so copy it exactly.
- Enter your email or phone, then choose a password.
- Verify the account using the code you receive.
- Enable two-factor authentication from the security menu.
- Before trading with leverage, set a conservative default leverage in the futures settings.
What the Weex referral code gives you
Weex labels its referral as a VIP code, and gfek is ours. It reduces eligible trading fees by 20%. Despite the label, treat it as a standard fee discount rather than a VIP tier.
Weex is listed as a fast-growing derivatives platform. Fast growth often comes with frequent promotions. If you see campaigns offering trading credits or deposit matches, read their terms separately, because the referral discount and promotional credits are usually governed by different rules.
Weex trading fees explained
Spot fees on Weex are 0.1% for both sides. A $750 trade costs $0.75, reduced to $0.60 with gfek.
Futures carry 0.02% maker and 0.06% taker. A $7,500 perpetual at market costs $4.50 at base and $3.60 with the code. Adding leverage does not change the fee rate, but it does change the dollar amount: $750 of margin at 10x controls that same $7,500 position, so the fee is charged on $7,500, not on $750.
Higher leverage also means more of your trades get closed for you. When a position is liquidated or stopped out, the closing order is usually a market order charged at the 0.06% taker rate. On a $7,500 position, that exit costs $4.50, or $3.60 with gfek, on top of the loss itself. The referral softens the fee, not the loss.
Who Weex is best for and not for
Best for
- Derivatives traders interested in a growing venue that is not one of the largest exchanges.
- Users who want to understand exactly how leverage multiplies fees in dollar terms.
- Traders comparing several mid-size futures platforms on cost.
Not for
- Anyone who reads VIP code as a promise of special status or bonuses.
- Market-order-heavy futures traders seeking a sub-0.06% taker rate.
- Beginners unfamiliar with liquidation risk.
Weex vs Bitunix and BingX
Bitunix lists identical futures pricing to Weex (0.02% and 0.06%) and both present themselves as fast-growing derivatives exchanges. Bitunix has the edge on spot makers at 0.08% against Weex's 0.1%.
BingX undercuts Weex on futures taker fees, at 0.05% against 0.06%, and adds copy trading. Spot and futures maker rates are equal. Traders who mostly use market orders would pay slightly less on BingX.
Put side by side, a futures trader using only market orders pays $60 per $100,000 on Weex and Bitunix and $50 on BingX, before discounts. A trader using only limit orders pays $20 on all three. The more you rely on market orders, the more BingX's lower taker rate is worth compared with Weex.
With gfek, the Weex market-order figure becomes $48 per $100,000, just below BingX's undiscounted $50. BingX has its own referral discount too, so compare discounted figures on both sides.
