Gate Products

In a traditional onchain trading flow, users often need to set up a Web3 wallet, withdraw assets from a centralized exchange, choose the correct network, prepare gas, connect to a decentralized exchange, and then locate the target token using its contract address. For users who are new to onchain trading, these extra steps can make the process more complex.

Using Gate Trenches to complete an onchain trade usually takes only a few minutes. Users need a logged-in Gate account with an available balance, then they can search for a token by name or contract address, review market data, slippage, and fees, and submit a buy or sell order.

USD1 is a U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin issued by World Liberty Financial. For users who hold USD1 on Gate, the platform provides a Soft Staking program that allows eligible users to earn rewards based on their USD1 holdings without subscribing to a fixed-term product or locking their assets.

To create a Spot Grid with Ultra AI on Gate: open Trading Bots → choose Spot Grid and a pair → pick Ultra AI (or AI Smart Grid / Manual) to confirm upper/lower bounds, grid count, and investment (≥ minimum) → Create and launch. Fit for users with spot balance who want ~7-day backtested parameters; beginner-friendly; usually minutes.

Gate Trading Bot (Gate Bots / Trading Bots) is Gate’s built-in automation toolkit that places and manages orders from preset rules across spot, futures, and portfolio workflows. Strategy types include Spot Grid, Futures Grid, Futures DCA (Futures Martingale), Rebalance Bot (Smart Rebalance), and Stock Portfolio; Ultra AI helps generate grid parameters.

Spot Grid fits traders who want range buy-low/sell-high with spot capital and no leverage or liquidation rules; Futures Grid fits traders who need higher capital efficiency and long, short, or neutral direction modes. Both are Gate grid bots, but the market, direction set, and risk stack differ.

Creating a Gate account is the first step toward using Gate, but account setup does not stop at registration. Gate supports different account structures, verification paths and product-specific setups depending on whether you are an individual trader, a company, an institution, a merchant, a professional trader or a user accessing Gate through a regional platform.

The Gate Anti-Phishing Code is a custom security feature that Gate users can set to help verify whether an email really came from Gate: your chosen code appears in certain official emails, so you can compare it before trusting the message or taking any action. For Gate users and cryptocurrency traders who want better protection against account fraud, this gives you a practical way to spot phishing attempts that target exchange accounts.

The Gate Secure Asset Fund for Users, or SAFU, is a dedicated fund designed to strengthen user asset protection. It is not part of ordinary operating capital. Instead, it provides an additional financial buffer on top of Gate’s reserve and security systems for extreme scenarios such as cyberattacks, liquidity crises, and other major security incidents.

KYC, or Know Your Customer, is Gate’s identity verification process, and this Gate KYC guide explains how it works across individual account checks, business KYB reviews, required documents, verification steps, regional rules, and extra screening for products such as Gate Card, Gate Pay, and Stocks. For Gate users, verification is not just a one-time signup task: it can determine access to deposits, withdrawals, fiat services, card applications, stock trading, merchant tools, and other regulated products.

Gate Card and Gate Pay both connect crypto with real-world payments, but they solve different problems for different users. If you want to make international purchases yourself, Gate Card lets eligible users spend supported crypto or stablecoins at merchants through the Visa or Mastercard network, with conversion handled under the applicable card rules when the transaction is processed.

Compounding in crypto Earn products means interest or rewards are added back to the accrual base so later periods earn on a larger balance. Gate Simple Earn Flexible auto-reinvests hourly interest; Soft Staking daily rewards expand the next day’s snapshot base; Simple Earn Fixed Term pays principal and interest at maturity; Flexible uses T+1 hourly payout—redeem before T+1 and you forfeit that hour’s interest.

To trade spot on Gate, create and verify your account, fund it with crypto or fiat, then go to Trade → Spot, choose a trading pair, select an order type such as Market or Limit, enter the order details, review, and confirm. Spot trading on Gate means exchanging one cryptocurrency directly for another at the current or specified market price, so if you buy BTC with USDT on the BTC/USDT Spot market, you receive BTC after the order fills and your USDT balance decreases accordingly.

On Gate, common yield paths include On-Chain Earn (PoS staking), Soft Staking, Simple Earn Flexible (lending—not PoS), Locked Staking, and Auto-Earn. They differ in liquidity, lock terms, and reward sources; choose by holding goal and trading frequency rather than treating one option as the default “best stake.”

To Subscribe to Gate Simple Earn: log in, open Earn → Simple Earn, choose Flexible Term or Fixed Term, enter an amount, and confirm Subscribe. Track holdings under My Subscriptions; Redeem per product rules. Auto-Earn is a separate toggle and must be enabled on its own.
