This is a snapshot of Gate’s contract points system in action—a daily routine for traders and a reflection of a long-running incentive program that has spanned over 62 rounds.
01 Latest Event
The 62nd round of Gate’s Contract Points Airdrop officially launched on January 12, 2026.
This round features a highly attractive reward package. Eligible users can redeem 460 DEEP tokens and a 100 USDT position experience voucher.
As with previous rounds, there are two clearly defined reward pools. Users can choose which tier to redeem based on the number of contract points they’ve accumulated.
This ongoing, cohesive airdrop campaign has become a hallmark benefit of the Gate contract ecosystem. Since its launch, the system has completed over 50 rounds, covering more than 60 popular cryptocurrencies.
02 Points System
Gate’s pioneering contract points system is, at its core, a transparent and traceable long-term user incentive program.
Officially rolled out on October 14, 2025, the system is designed to record and reward genuine trading activity from contract users. Within this framework, contract points serve as "entitlement certificates," rather than tradable financial assets.
Points are calculated daily and automatically distributed the following day. The system aggregates users’ effective contract trading volume, account assets, and activities like inviting friends.
The key here is the concept of "effective trading"—the system only counts genuine, normal contract transactions. Self-trading or artificial volume won’t earn points.
03 Earning Points & Rules
The primary way to earn Gate contract points is through contract trading. The system uses a tiered points mechanism: for every 400 USDT traded, users earn 1 point. The more you trade, the more points you accumulate, with no upper limit.
Beyond trading, users can also earn additional points based on account asset size and successful friend referrals.
Note that points are valid for 15 days from the date of issuance. The system defaults to a "first to expire, first to use" policy, which helps minimize the risk of users missing out due to forgotten points.
In terms of entitlements, contract points cannot be withdrawn, transferred, or traded over-the-counter. They’re exclusively for use in designated redemption scenarios on the platform.
04 Redemption & Rewards
The core value of contract points lies in redeeming a wide array of rewards. These fall into two main categories: airdrops of popular cryptocurrencies and practical trading benefits.
Recent events have offered impressive rewards in both value and appeal.
For example, the 61st round provided 25 GUSD as a reward, with single-account earnings of about $25. Earlier, the 45th round included SUI and DOGE tokens, with single-account returns exceeding $31.
Redemption is straightforward. During the event, users simply visit the "Contract Points" page on Gate’s website, select the appropriate reward pool based on their points balance, and complete the redemption with a single click.
All redemption rules and available items are subject to the real-time information on that page.
05 Historical Overview
Since its debut, Gate’s contract points system has established a steady, high-frequency rhythm of events, with new airdrops launching almost every one to two days. This keeps user engagement and anticipation consistently high.
Official data shows that the system has completed over 50 airdrop rounds. Statistics indicate that individual users have earned up to $2,400 cumulatively, with single-round maximum rewards reaching $127.
Looking back, each round’s reward tokens have been carefully selected from trending market assets. For instance, the 42nd round rewarded GT tokens, which had a market cap of about $1.057 billion at the time. The 45th round included SUI and DOGE, with market caps of approximately $5.25 billion and $19.12 billion, respectively.
06 Participation Guide
To join the latest 62nd Gate Contract Points Airdrop, you’ll need to follow a few steps.
First, make sure you have a Gate trading account. If you’re not yet registered, you can sign up quickly through official channels.
Next, contract trading is the foundation for accumulating points. Based on your risk preferences and market outlook, start trading contracts. The system will automatically calculate your effective trading volume and award points the next day.
During the event, keep a close eye on your contract points balance. Visit the "Contract Points" page on Gate’s website or app to check if you’ve reached the ≥40 or higher tier required for rewards.
In January 2026, head to the redemption page, select the reward pool that matches your points, and follow the instructions to complete your redemption. Rewards are usually credited to your account within a set period after redemption.
If you’re new to contract trading, Gate also offers a simulation feature. This lets you practice and get familiar with contract operations in a risk-free environment, so you’re ready to participate in the real points program.
Looking Ahead
The redemption page displays a prominent "460 DEEP & 100 USDT Limited Time Offer." A user has just redeemed these rewards with 120 contract points earned from a week’s worth of trading.
In his asset account, alongside freshly credited DEEP tokens, sits a 100 USDT position experience voucher. Nearby, the Gate contract trading interface continues to flash with the latest price movements.
