Binance has unveiled a zero-fee trading promotion on Binance Wallet, starting March 17, 2025, at 08:00 (UTC). This initiative will run for six months until September 17, 2025, at 08:00 (UTC), covering all available trading pairs on the Binance Wallet platform. The move will improve user experience and increase trading activity on the platform. Additionally, Binance has introduced an Alpha section on its main market page, allowing direct purchases of select assets.
No Fees on Trades and Cross-Chain Swaps
The company stated that during the promotional period, users will not incur trading fees when using Binance Wallet’s exchange and cross-chain bridge features. Additionally, Binance Alpha’s quick buy function will be included in the promotion. However, network gas fees will still apply, and transactions made through third-party decentralized applications (dApps) will not qualify for the offer.
To participate, users must utilize Binance Wallet’s integrated Swap and Bridge features or Quick Buy within Binance Alpha. They must also trade using a backed-up keyless address within Binance Wallet. The process involves updating the Binance App, setting up a Binance Wallet, and accessing the trading feature under the assets section. Binance reserves the right to modify terms and conditions as needed.

Currently, no other purchase options are available. This update provides traders with a streamlined method to acquire key blockchain assets while ensuring smoother transactions. The Alpha section’s integration aligns with Binance’s broader strategy to enhance accessibility and simplify trading.
