You're probably used to WeChat or Alipay red packets, but sending red packets with Bitcoin is a different experience altogether. Binance Red Packets let you send BTC, ETH, USDT, and dozens of other cryptocurrencies to friends, with gameplay similar to WeChat but more diverse. To try it out, you need a Binance account — register on Binance to get started, and you can find the red packet feature directly in the Binance APP.
Just like WeChat's random split — set a total amount and number of packets, and each person receives a random amount. The luckiest person might get the lion's share.
Everyone receives exactly the same amount. Ideal for scenarios requiring equal distribution, like team bonuses.
Set a text password that recipients must enter correctly to open the red packet. Perfect for community engagement — for example, a group admin posts a topic-related password red packet.
Designate a specific recipient by their Binance Pay ID — only that person can claim it. Ideal for one-on-one gifting.
Red packets can be shared via WeChat, Telegram, Twitter, or any other channel.
The list is extensive. Common choices include:
Click the shared link. Users with a Binance account can log in and claim directly. Those without will be guided to register first.
In the Binance APP red packet page, tap "Claim Red Packet" → enter the password → claim if correct.
When someone shows you the red packet QR code, scan it with the Binance APP to claim.
For anyone managing a crypto community, engagement is the biggest challenge. Regular password red packets are the simplest and most effective way to boost activity:
Brands can send Binance red packets during Chinese New Year, Christmas, and other holidays for marketing campaigns with strong engagement and viral potential.
Attach red packet links to articles or videos — fans can claim them, while driving new Binance registrations.
Attract new users through red packets. New users who register via your referral link also earn you referral rewards — a win-win.
Red packets are fun, but stay vigilant:
Claimed cryptocurrency goes directly into your Binance spot wallet balance for the corresponding token. Check it on the "Assets" page.
After the expiration period, unclaimed amounts are automatically refunded to your wallet with no loss.
No. Sending red packets is free — the amount you set is the total deducted from your wallet.
Yes. Both claiming and sending red packets require basic identity verification.
Yes. Binance red packets support NFT red packets, allowing you to gift your NFTs to friends. Select "NFT Red Packet" in the red packet type options.
