Bitget TradFi brings traditional-market products into one Bitget account, including rToken, Stock+, stock and commodity perpetual futures, and CFDs. Eligible crypto investors holding USDT may benefit from gaining exposure to American stocks without setting up a separate brokerage account. During my test, I noticed that the rToken maker and taker fees shown for my VIP 0 account were both 0.05%, while a 5 USDT order was rejected because the displayed minimum was 10.009806 USDT, so you still need about 10 USDT to place a trade. U.S. traders cannot use Bitget at all. rToken holders do not receive voting rights, while eligible investors who actually want direct share ownership with voting rights can use Stock+.

Tested with USDT on the Bitget Android app and desktop platform. I traded rNVDA/USDT; the Stock+, perps, and CFD markets were inspected but not traded.

What Is Bitget TradFi?

Bitget is an advanced crypto exchange platform, and Bitget TradFi is the traditional-markets part of the exchange. It includes tokenized stocks through rToken, direct stock investing through Stock+, stock and commodity perpetual futures, and CFDs on gold, forex and indices, all accessible from one Bitget account. Bitget is registered in the Seychelles and operates only through regional hubs, not from a single headquarters. Bitget states that it serves over 120 million users in more than 150 countries and regions. Traders can stay funded in USDT and trade stocks and stock-linked perps without transferring money to a separate brokerage.

I found TradFi in the desktop navigation bar and reached the product menu with one click. Then from my Android phone, I tapped TradFi once from the bottom navigation. The phone screen then showed Commodity perps, Stock perps, Spot stocks and CFD as separate tabs. In the menus, Spot stocks is the rToken market, Stock Investing is Stock+, and Stock futures or Stock perps are the TradFi Perps.

The Main Bitget TradFi Products

Bitget TradFi also has CFDs along with its stock-linked products that you can trade through MT5. According to Bitget’s available information, these CFDs cover markets linked to gold, forex and indices. I also noticed separate Commodity perps and CFD tabs during my mobile test. I noticed that CFDs are not 24/7 but 24/5 and that the leverage goes up to 500x, which is higher than any other product on the TradFi platform.

What is Bitget rToken?

Bitget rToken is a token launched by Reality Protocol where traders are gaining exposure to US stocks and ETFs by trading against USDT, although without the underlying stock being registered in the buyer’s name. According to Reality Protocol, the tokens are issued at a 1:1 ratio to the underlying asset. Custody is maintained by custodians (third party), while Bitget acts as the trading venue and liquidity provider.

When I checked Bitget’s rToken campaign page, it listed more than 500 tokenized stocks and ETFs. In the trading platform, I selected rNVDA, rAAPL and rSPY. The “r” before each ticker symbolises a tokenized asset.

During my test, rNVDA was trading at 218.74 USDT and the underlying stock at 218.54 dollars, a difference of 0.20 USDT or 0.09%. rSPY traded at 771.31 USDT versus 771.26 dollars, and rAAPL traded at 316.25 USDT against 316.25 dollars. The rNVDA order book at that time showed a best ask of 218.73 USDT and a best bid of 218.71 USDT. So the spread was 0.02 USDT. These small gaps are normal for a tokenized stock. The token trades on its own order book, so the price can drift a little from the actual stock, especially outside US market hours. A gap of 0.09% did not bother me. But if the gap gets much wider, then you are paying more than the stock price supports.

According to Bitget’s rToken FAQ, net dividends are automatically credited in USDT to the Spot account. This was good to know, but I could not find any dividend rule on the rAAPL Spot Information screen. That was a little surprising for me, as no dividend came to my account during the test, so I am going by the FAQ here, not by something I received myself.

Bitget also enabled some selected rTokens in the unified account as collateral. During my test, rNVDA showed a 95% collateral rate in tier-1 ($0 to $500,000). That means up to 95% can contribute to adjusted equity in that range. That being said, this does not mean the price of rNVDA is guaranteed.

What is Bitget Stock+?

Bitget Stock+ lets eligible Bitget users buy fractional interests in real U.S. stocks and ETFs through a securities sub-account. Bitget published in its Stock+ launch announcement that more than 10,000 stocks and ETFs were available, with fractional orders starting from 0.0001 shares. That is good for people who are not looking to invest too much money.

I tried Bitget Stock+ as well. During my trading time, I noticed that the usual symbol for Apple is “AAPL”. This is on the Apple page along with sections for quotes, an overview and financial information. The tokenized version of Apple is shown differently as “rAAPL/USDT”. I was easily able to tell the difference between the two products because of this label. One was a token and the other was Bitget Stock+. Stock+ is funded in USDC, while rToken and TradFi Perps trade against USDT.

What are Bitget TradFi Perps?

Bitget TradFi Perps are USDT-margined contracts that let traders buy or sell the stock, commodity and other traditional-market references without owning the actual asset. These contracts let traders trade outside the hours of the underlying market and they include leverage, funding and liquidation risk. I opened the Bitget desktop app for the first time. The Bitget desktop app showed me the NVDAUSDT contract. This NVDAUSDT contract had leverage options from 1x to 100x. It also had an eight-hour funding countdown. The funding rate of the NVDAUSDT contract was 0.0000% at that time. Funding is a payment between long and short traders at every countdown. At 0.0000% it cost nothing to hold the position at that moment. But the rate changes each cycle, so holding a perp for a few days can cost more than the fee schedule suggests. There is no funding on rToken so it costs nothing to hold it.

I also used the Bitget app on my Android phone. The onboarding screen on Android showed me that I could trade 24/7 and use leverage up to 100x. That is an advantage for me because I like to trade into the weekend too. Then I looked at the XAUUSDT pair on my Android phone. XAUUSDT pair had 10x leverage selected. It also had a four-hour funding countdown. Gold appears twice: XAUUSDT in perpetual charged every few hours and XAUUSD in CFD charged per lot commission. So know that you have two different routes to take based on what suits you best.

The Bitget perpetual contracts are more flexible than spot exposure, and they are riskier too. The phone has several available cryptocurrency-commodity hybrid markets that I have examined: four in the metals category and three in the energy market. I think they have listed the markets based on popularity.

The commodities tab for Agricultural products showed a “No data found” message. And that was surprising. Since the selector did not include a trustworthy total, I omitted Bitget’s platform-wide marketing count from my own count.

How liquid are Bitget stock futures?

When I reviewed the comparison data, the clearest advantage was Bitget’s order book depth. At the 5-BPS level, AMDUSDT showed 9.8 times more depth than the second-ranked platform, while the lead across the other four stock futures ranged from 5.8 to 8.4 times. This matters because a deeper order book can absorb larger trades with less price movement, which may reduce slippage. The figures also showed leading depth within the wider 10 and 50-BPS ranges, suggesting stronger liquidity beyond the best bid and ask prices. However, Bitget showed no clear advantage in spread. Since spread affects the immediate cost of entering a trade, some competing platforms may still provide better execution for smaller orders below 10,000 USDT.

In Bitget’s supplied 5-BPS comparison, it was ranked first in market depth for the five stock futures shown below.

What Does Bitget TradFi Cost?

The cost depends on which TradFi product you use. On rToken spot, my VIP 0 fee page displayed 0.05% maker and 0.05% taker fees, with a 20% BGB fee-rebate option offered but it was switched off. The live rNVDA market order was routed through StockRoute and recorded as a taker trade.

While I was testing their platform, I placed an 11 USDT rNVDA market order. It filled almost immediately through StockRoute at an average price of 218.55 USDT. The order screen displayed a filled quantity of 0.0498 rNVDA, with a filled value of 10.891225 USDT. I had to open the completed order details to see the actual fee. Bitget charged 0.00002491 rNVDA, worth approximately 0.00544 USDT at the fill price, which was close to the displayed 0.05% taker rate. The Assets screen showed 0.04980746 rNVDA available. After that, I sold 0.0498 rNVDA at an average price of 218.25 USDT. The sale produced a filled value of 10.869059 USDT, and Bitget charged a taker fee of 0.00543452 USDT. This left a small residual balance of 0.00000746 rNVDA. That happened because the sell field took 0.0498 and not the full balance. It is worth much less than a cent and too small to sell on its own. So small trades can leave a little dust behind like this. After both trades, my balance was 14.97239896 USDT, compared with the 15 USDT I had deposited. So the whole round trip cost me 0.02760104 USDT. About 0.011 USDT of that was the two trading fees, which matches the 0.05% rate on each side. About 0.015 USDT was the price itself, because I sold at 218.25 after buying at 218.55. The rest is the small amount of rNVDA still sitting in my account. So the fees were not my biggest cost here. The price move was.

When you look at the order records you can see “StockRoute”. Bitget explains that when they send orders to the market during the times they support in the United States you pay the taker rate. When they match orders outside of those times they can use the maker or taker rules. There are other costs you need to think about, like the difference between the prices people are willing to buy and sell at, and the difference in price between tokens and stocks. You also have to consider the cost of getting USDT, and the fees for using the network and withdrawing your money.

Who Can Access Bitget TradFi?

Anyone who is at least 18, completes identity verification and is not in a prohibited location can access Bitget TradFi. Bitget does have a list of prohibited locations in its Terms of Use, while individual TradFi products may have additional regional restrictions. Customers also have to meet the eligibility requirements that apply to their account and product. You also need to have a separate MT5 account that’s opened through Bitget and holds USDT for CFD trading. Bitget’s Terms of Use, checked on 23 August 2026, state that the prohibited locations were Afghanistan, Austria, Canada, the Central African Republic, Crimea, Cuba, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Donetsk, France, Germany, Guinea-Bissau, Haiti, Hong Kong, Iran, Iraq, Japan, Kazakhstan, Lebanon, Libya, Luhansk, Malaysia, North Korea, Singapore, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, the United States and specified U.S. territories, and Yemen.

Bitget specifically also described that rTokens are not offered in the United States or to any U.S. persons. All potential investors should check and read the latest Terms of Use and the eligibility notice shown in their own account before using any TradFi product. Before testing the Bitget platform, I opened an account and completed the required identity verification with my national ID and a selfie check. My account verification took around 30 minutes.

How to Start Trading Bitget TradFi (Step by Step)

1. First, create the Bitget account using your email and then complete ID verification. The verified screen revealed that the identity verification was done prior to the product testing.

2. Deposit whatever crypto you have. I started with 15 USDT and the full amount appeared on the app instantly. The good thing is that they allow small deposits on this platform.

3. On the desktop version application, click TradFi from the top menu and pick Spot stocks, Stock futures or Stock Investing. On Android go to the TradFi section by tapping the bottom nav, then selecting Spot stocks.

4. Trade on your favorite pair. You can easily find it on the platform. My test market was Nvidia, which was displayed as rNVDA/USDT, and I compared the token price with the related U.S. stock.

5. Decide on order type and how much to trade. First I tried a 5 USDT market order, which was rejected because the minimum was 10.009806 USDT, so I placed 11 USDT.

6. Double check and confirm. My confirmation showed rNVDA/USDT, Buy, Market and 11 USDT.

7. Go to order history to verify the details of the executed order and the fee charged. The order was filled at 218.55 USDT and the asset position with 0.04980746 rNVDA was shown under Assets.

8. To close the position, I tapped Sell, entered 0.0498 rNVDA and confirmed the order. It was filled at an average price of 218.25 USDT, leaving a residual balance of 0.00000746 rNVDA.

How Is rToken Different From Owning Real Shares?

Is Bitget rToken the same as owning the stock?

Bitget’s rToken is not the same as owning any specific stock directly. It just gives investors exposure to the stock’s price performance, but the share itself is not registered in the investor’s name at all. The practical benefit is that investors could buy rTokens with USDT and trade them through their existing Bitget account. However, there is a catch. Rather than holding shares through a conventional broker, investors depend on Reality as the token issuer, the custodial arrangement behind the product and Bitget as the trading platform.

Is Bitget TradFi worth trying?

It is worth trying if you already hold USDT and you understand what each product actually is. It is not worth trying if you need real share ownership with voting rights, or if you live in a country Bitget prohibits.

Not a fit

• U.S. persons, who cannot use Bitget at all.
• Actual investors who really want voting rights but are not eligible for Stock+, as rTokens and perps do not carry voting rights.
• Someone who expects every stock-linked market to accept an order below 10.009806 USDT.

Good fit

• Traders who are comfortable keeping their assets in crypto exchanges rather than in any traditional brokerage house.
• Experienced traders who understand funding, leverage and liquidation risk in perps.
• Investors who actually want fractional, stock-linked exposure without a separate brokerage account.

Is Bitget TradFi good for beginners?

Bitget TradFi actually suits beginners only on the unleveraged rToken spot market. Stock+ demands that all users understand how a securities sub-account works, while TradFi Perps involve leverage, funding fees and liquidation risk, making them unsuitable for new traders. During the test, I also discovered that the Spot stocks are accessible easily from the app, although I felt the difference between rToken, Stock+ and Stock perps would be quite hard for a newcomer to distinguish at a single glance.

The Bottom Line

Bitget TradFi is a combination of tokenized stocks, brokerage-style Stock+ access and leveraged traditional-market derivatives inside a crypto exchange account. The best part of my test was that I could do everything from one account. I deposited USDT, bought rNVDA through StockRoute, checked my position and sold it, all from the same Android app. The part that annoyed me was the order minimum. My 5 USDT order was rejected and I had to trade above 10.009806 USDT. Bitget TradFi is worth considering for eligible USDT users who understand the difference between a token, a direct stock product and a perpetual contract. Those who have less knowledge about crypto can also try it, but it would be better if they learn how Bitget TradFi works first.
