The globally popular crypto exchange MEXC is paying affiliates to push tokenized commodities through a four-week pilot program that launched on March 8. The promotion includes a 400,000 USDT prize pool to incentivize trading in gold, silver, and oil futures, and affiliates who drive new volume on these specific pairs earn cash rebates on top of their standard commissions. The promotion runs through April 5 and distributes 100,000 USDT in weekly cycles.
Earn Extra Rebates on Tokenized Gold, Silver, and Oil
Affiliates will receive a 0.008% rebate under MEXC’s zero-fee model or 0.003% under the standard-fee structure. The exchange only pays for genuine, incremental growth across four contracts: GOLD (XAUT)/USDT, SILVER (XAG)/USDT, OIL (WTI)/USDT, and OIL (BRENT)/USDT.
To calculate the payout, MEXC establishes a baseline using a referral’s average daily volume in those pairs over the 30 days prior to launch. Weekly incremental volume is the actual volume minus the baseline, multiplied by seven. If a trader fails to beat their historical average, the affiliate earns nothing. New affiliates start with a zero baseline.
There’s also a hard cap of 1,000 USDT per affiliate each week. Account managers can authorize higher limits for high-volume drivers, and payouts will hit spot accounts within 72 hours of a cycle’s close. There are no lock-up periods.
MEXC at a Glance
This initiative aligns with MEXC’s broader strategy of bridging traditional commodities with 24/7 crypto markets. Founded in 2018, MEXC has over 30 million users across 170 countries – and it also lists over 2,800 cryptocurrencies, spanning major coins, emerging tokens, real-world assets, AI themes, and DeFi protocols. The exchange’s matching engine processes 1.4 million orders per second to ensure low-latency execution.
MEXC charges zero fees for spot makers and 0.02% for futures makers, while perpetual contracts support leverage up to 400x. Client assets are held across a mix of hot and cold wallets. The exchange publishes proof-of-reserves reports showing a ratio above 100% and maintains an insurance fund to backstop futures positions.
Beyond the core matching engine, the MEXC ecosystem includes copy trading, demo accounts, P2P fiat gateways, flexible savings, and a Web3 wallet. The native MX token powers community events and airdrops, and tokenized assets like XAUT and XAG bridge traditional market volatility with crypto market hours. Gold and silver retain their historical appeal as stores of value, while oil futures capture the dynamic movements in global energy markets.
Join the Pilot Before It Ends
By offering cash incentives on these high-demand pairs, MEXC is giving its global affiliate network a powerful new tool to drive liquidity into tokenized gold, silver, and oil futures. The four-week pilot runs until April 5.
