LBank Referral Code 2026: 50% Futures Fee Rebate, Are 50% and 80% Codes Real? 25 Codes Checked and How to Verify One Yourself

The fee rebate you can get with an LBank invitation code (LBank calls it a referral code) is set by the inviter, so codes that are all called “LBank invitation codes” can range from 0% to 50%. LBank’s sign-up page shows a code’s futures rate: for this site’s invitation code it says “You will receive a 50.0% futures fee discount”, and the spot rate is 30%.

On 4 November 2026 I searched for terms such as “LBank 邀請碼” (LBank invitation code) and “LBank referral code”, and entered the 25 invitation codes from about 30 pages into LBank’s official sign-up page, one by one. The 5 claiming 50% or more were all 0%, 16 had no discount at all, and apart from this site’s code, none exceeded 20%. This article covers LBank’s official rules, what my check found, how to verify a code yourself before signing up, and the sign-up steps and the conditions of the new-user bonus.

What an LBank invitation code gets you: a rate set by the inviter, for both spot and futures

The “Terms and Conditions” on LBank’s referral page say that once someone signs up with an invitation code, for every spot or futures trade they complete, they can get back a percentage of the trading fees they actually paid, and “The commission rate is determined by the referral code used at the time of registration.” The “LBank Referral Program FAQ” (23 October 2025) also says that the inviter sets the rate when creating the code.

A few things to know first:

• The sign-up page shows only the futures rate. For this site’s invitation code it says “You will receive a 50.0% futures fee discount”; the 30% spot rate comes from the daily-synced data in the invitation box below. LBank’s sign-up page doesn’t show the spot rate, so none of the “X% on spot” claims online can be checked before you sign up.
• LBank publishes no cap on the invitee’s rate, and no term. The “permanent” and “lifetime” claims online have no basis on LBank’s official pages.
• The two official sources word it differently: the sign-up page says “futures fee discount”, while the rules describe getting back a percentage of the fees actually paid. LBank doesn’t say when the invitee’s share is paid back, in which coin, or to which account.

I checked 25 LBank invitation codes found online

On 4 November 2026 I searched for terms such as “LBank 邀請碼” (LBank invitation code), “LBank 推薦碼” (LBank referral code), “LBank 返佣” and “LBank referral code”, collected about 30 pages that listed invitation codes (in Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese and English), entered each of the 25 codes into LBank’s official sign-up page at lbank.com/zh-TC/register?icode= followed by the code, and noted the futures rate shown under the code:

A few patterns:

• Codes claiming 50% or more were all 0% on LBank’s page. The most-cited code, advertised as “up to 50%” and found on many English pages, actually gives no discount at all (the first comparison image at the top of the article).
• Apart from this site’s code, none exceeded 20%. Of the 25, 5 showed 20%, 3 showed 15% and 1 showed 10%; the other 16 were all 0%.
• Of the 7 codes advertised as “permanent” or “lifetime”, 4 were actually 0%.
• The modest claims were the accurate ones: most of the 7 codes that matched their claim came from Taiwanese blogs and comparison sites stating 10% to 20%; most of the 50% and 80% claims came from mass-produced English pages.
• No page included a screenshot of LBank’s sign-up page showing the rate.

My view: on LBank, the inviter decides the rate, anywhere from 0% to 50%. Many pages give only a number, with no screenshot, and readers who sign up through them find out afterward that there is no discount. The method in the next section lets you check before you sign up.

Check an LBank invitation code yourself before signing up: three checks

Check 1: open it from the invitation link and look at the line under the code

In your browser, enter https://www.lbank.com/en-US/register?icode= followed by the invitation code. For example, open my invitation link and LBank’s English sign-up page says “You will receive a 50.0% futures fee discount” under the referral code. First make sure the domain is lbank.com, then look under “Referral Code”:

• If it says “You will receive a X% futures fee discount”: the code comes with a discount, and X is the futures rate.
• If nothing appears under the code: the code has no discount (0%).

Note: if you type a code yourself on the regular sign-up page, this line does not appear. You only see it when you open an address that carries the code. This is how the page looked when I checked on 4 November 2026. LBank has not officially explained it, and it may change after a redesign.

Check 2: before submitting, make sure the code field shows the code you want

In my testing I found that after you click someone else’s invitation link, LBank remembers that code in your browser for several hours. If you then open the regular sign-up page, the code field is filled in with that code automatically, and you can’t change it. Before submitting, look carefully at the “Referral Code” row; if it isn’t the code you want, open the invitation link you want to use again, and it will be replaced. I tested this in a desktop browser, not on mobile or in the app.

Check 3: who pays anything extra, and how is the spot rate proven

LBank’s sign-up page shows only the futures rate. For a spot rate someone advertises, or a number higher than the sign-up page shows, get clear answers to the following. If they can’t answer, assume there is nothing:

1. Evidence: a screenshot of LBank’s sign-up page showing the rate, or records of actual payouts.
2. Who pays: a company name or a responsible person, not a nickname.
3. How it is calculated and when it is paid: on what basis, how often, and where it is paid to.
4. Written rules: whether there is a public terms page, rather than “message me to join a group”.

LBank’s rules also say “The platform does not permit users to create multiple accounts for self-referral”, and any rewards from a violation are deemed invalid.

The 10,000 USDT new-user bonus: the conditions are in the Bonus Center rules

LBank’s sign-up page says “Sign up to get 10,000 USDT” and “Claim Up to 10,000 USDT”. This is the cap on new-user rewards. The tasks the Bonus Center shows when you are not logged in are worth about 3 to 100 USDT each (a 20 to 100 USDT sign-up mystery box, a 5 USDT futures bonus for inviting a friend, and so on), and the page doesn’t list how to reach 10,000 USDT. The Bonus Center’s Rules and Terms (translated from the Traditional Chinese page):

The Bonus Center also says “Content is shown based on your account status”. For most people, what is useful over the long run is the fee rebate, not this headline cap.

Signing up for LBank with an invitation code: steps

1. Open the sign-up page from the invitation link, and check the rate shown under the code (see Check 1 above).
2. Choose Email or Phone, enter your account, and set the login password. “Referral Code” is already filled in and can’t be changed; make sure it is the code you want to use (Check 2).
3. Click “Sign up” and complete verification as shown on screen.
4. Complete identity verification (KYC): the Bonus Center’s new-user tasks also include identity verification.

Where you can’t sign up

The regions where LBank’s “User Service Agreement” (22 July 2026) says you cannot register include the US, Canada, Hong Kong, Macau, mainland China, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Syria, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Egypt, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Uruguay and Yemen, as well as Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk in Ukraine. A list elsewhere in the same agreement also includes Belarus, so the two lists don’t match; the full list is in the “LBank review”.

Already signed up without an invitation code?

You can’t add one. LBank’s “LBank Referral Program FAQ” says: “The referral code must be entered during the initial registration of an LBank account.” “The referral code cannot be added or modified after registration.” LBank also has no rule for rebinding long-inactive accounts. Whether other exchanges let you add a code after sign-up, and for how long, is covered in “Adding a referral code after sign-up”.

If family members or friends were already planning to open an LBank account, they can sign up in their own name with this site’s invitation code, for their own use. Please don’t open an account under someone else’s identity for your own use: LBank’s rules don’t allow one person to hold multiple accounts.

If you have already signed up, the only ways left to lower your fees are VIP levels and maker rates, covered in the “LBank review”.

How much the fee rebate saves

Based on LBank’s regular user (VIP 0) fees: spot 0.1% for both maker and taker, futures 0.02% maker and 0.06% taker (LBank’s fee page, 4 November 2026). This site’s invitation code gives 50% on futures and 30% on spot:

For the same futures volume, a 20% code saves 1.2 USDT and a 0% code saves nothing. For fees across exchanges, see “International crypto exchange fee comparison”.

LBank is an international exchange. The invitation code, link and rate in the box below come from data synced daily. Sign up with this site’s invitation code and you get a trading fee rebate of 50% on futures and 30% on spot:

This site’s invitation code is not for UK or Hong Kong residents. Please follow the laws where you live. LBank’s security, proof of reserves and regulatory record are covered in the “LBank review”; how fee rebates work at each exchange is in “Crypto exchange fee rebates”.
