Where can I get a BitTrade referral code? Answers to common questions seen on forums
When you search for "BitTrade referral code," you will find many similar questions on sites like Yahoo! Chiebukuro and various forums.
Questions like "I don't know where to enter it," "Can I add it later?" and "Do I really get Bitcoin?" are common stumbling blocks for beginners.
In this article, I have summarized the questions frequently posted on forums along with their answers. If you want to get started with a great deal using a referral code, please use this as a reference.

Referral code: nh56B
Q1. Where can I get a BitTrade referral code?
This is the most common question on forums.
A referral code is issued by someone who already has a BitTrade account. You can use the code "nh56B" here. You can either enter this code on the registration screen or register via the link below to have it applied automatically.
▼ Register using the link with the referral code
There is no problem with using a code from someone you don't know. No personal information is revealed to the referrer; the only thing the referrer can see is the number of people they have referred.
Q2. Where do I enter the referral code? I can't find the input field.
This is also a classic question on forums.
The referral code input field appears during the account opening registration form. There is a field labeled "Referral Code (Optional)" near the bottom of the screen where you enter your email address and password.
However, if you access the site via a referral link, the code will be automatically entered, so the input field may not be displayed or will already be filled in. Even if it remains blank, the benefits will be applied without issue as long as you used the referral link.
If you really cannot find the input field, registering via the referral link is the most reliable method.
Q3. Can I add a referral code after I have registered?
No, you cannot. You will often see posts on forums from people regretting that they "forgot to enter it..."
A referral code can only be entered on the account opening registration form, and there is no way to add it after registration is complete. Even support will not be able to assist with this, so it is important to check before you register.
If you are worried about forgetting to enter it, the safest method is to access the site via the referral link. The code is applied automatically, so there is no risk of input errors.

Q4. How much money do I get for using a referral code? What are the conditions?
This is an answer to the common question on bulletin boards, "How much do I actually get?" (as of April 2026).
The rewards are given in two stages.
Stage 1: Open an account using a referral code and complete identity verification to receive 1,000 yen worth of BTC. No trading is required.
Stage 2: After opening an account, trade a cumulative total of 50,000 yen or more at the exchange within 30 days of registration to receive an additional 1,000 yen worth of BTC.
In total, you can receive up to 2,000 yen worth of BTC.
The rewards are granted on the afternoon of the day following the confirmation of the conditions being met. They are also granted on weekends and holidays.
Q5. Isn't a 50,000 yen trade difficult? Won't I lose money?
This is a common concern seen on bulletin boards. In reality, you can achieve this without losing money.
The simplest method is to buy 50,000 yen worth of Bitcoin and sell it immediately. While you will incur a cost of a few hundred yen as the difference (spread) between buying and selling, the 1,000 yen worth of BTC you receive is greater, so you will effectively come out ahead.
Note that the trade must be made at the "Exchange" (Sales Office). Simply depositing money will not fulfill the condition. Be sure to perform the buy and sell operations from the "Exchange" section of the BitTrade app.
Also, the cumulative total of the executed order amounts must exceed 50,000 yen, not just the order amount. It is safer to order a little bit more.
Q6. Will my personal information be leaked if I use a referral code?
Questions about privacy are also frequently seen on bulletin boards.
The conclusion is no, it will not be leaked. The only information shared with the referrer through the referral code is the "number of people referred." Personal information such as your registered email address, name, address, and phone number is not shared at all.
There is also no identification of individuals from IP addresses. Please use the code with peace of mind.
Q7. Is the referral code case-sensitive?
Yes, it is. This is another area where reports of mistakes are common on bulletin boards.
BitTrade referral codes are case-sensitive. For example, with "nh56B", "n" and "N", "h" and "H", and "B" and "b" are treated as different characters.
Even a single character difference will prevent the bonus from being granted, so be sure to copy and paste it. Especially when entering from a handwritten note, you need to be careful to distinguish between 'l' (lowercase L) and '1' (one), and 'O' (uppercase O) and '0' (zero).
Q8. Can existing users use a referral code?
No, they cannot. Referral codes are only for new registrants.
There are questions on bulletin boards asking, 'I already have an account, can I use it?', but those who already have a BitTrade account or have closed their account in the past are not eligible.
Q9. Can I receive referral code benefits with a corporate account?
No, you cannot. Corporate accounts are not eligible for the BitTrade referral program. Registration with a personal account is a requirement for receiving the benefits.
Q10. Can I withdraw the Bitcoin received via a referral code?
Yes, you can. The granted BTC can be converted to Japanese Yen at the BitTrade exchange at any time. You can apply to withdraw the converted Japanese Yen to your registered bank account (as of April 2026).
Since there is a fee for withdrawals, please check the latest fees on the official website before withdrawing. You can also choose to hold onto the received BTC and aim for a price increase.
Q11. Is BitTrade suspicious? I'm worried it might be a scam.
This is the most common concern from beginners on bulletin boards. To conclude, it is not suspicious.
First, as an official basis, BitTrade is a domestic exchange officially registered with the Financial Services Agency and the Local Finance Bureau as a crypto asset exchange operator (Kanto Local Finance Bureau No. 00007). It also holds registration as a Type I Financial Instruments Business (Kanto Local Finance Bureau (Kinsho) No. 3295). If it were an unregistered, suspicious operator, it would not be able to obtain these registrations in the first place.
Next, regarding its operational history, it originally entered the Japanese market under the name Huobi Japan and changed its name to BitTrade in 2023. It has a track record of operating in Japan for several years or more.
Some people feel suspicious about the 'earn money with a referral code' part, but this is a legitimate user acquisition program. It is a common method for major exchanges to use referral rewards for existing users instead of spending money on new users. Other major exchanges like Coincheck and bitFlyer also implement similar programs.
There are also voices saying, 'I'm scared to use a stranger's referral code,' but zero personal information is leaked to the referrer. Your name, email address, address, phone number, etc., are not shared at all.
Q12. When will the Bitcoin received via a referral code arrive?
There are also many posts on bulletin boards saying, 'I applied but it hasn't arrived yet.' I will organize the timing of the grant (as of April 2026).
Stage 1 (Account Opening Bonus): It is granted on the afternoon of the day after BitTrade confirms that your identity verification has passed. This includes weekends and holidays. If identity verification is completed in the morning, it often arrives by the afternoon of the following day. If it is completed at night, it may take until the day after next.
Stage 2 (Trading Bonus): It is granted on the afternoon of the day after a cumulative trade of 50,000 yen or more at the exchange is confirmed. This is also based on the afternoon of the following day, including weekends and holidays.
You can check whether it has arrived from the 'Assets' screen or 'Transaction History' in the app. If the 'Family and Friend Referral Campaign' item is displayed, the receipt is complete.
If it does not arrive after the afternoon of the next day, check these three points: confirm whether the referral code was entered correctly, whether identity verification is fully complete (if receiving by postcard, the postcard must have arrived), and whether the account is in an active state.
Q13. Can I enter a referral code later?
The question, 'I found out about the referral code after I already registered. Can I enter it now?' appears frequently on bulletin boards.
Unfortunately, you cannot. The referral code can only be entered once during the account opening registration form. There is no way to add or change it after registration is complete, and support will not be able to assist you with this.
This is the same rule for many cryptocurrency exchanges, not just BitTrade. If you think, 'I'll just enter it later,' you will not be able to receive the benefits, so please be careful.
If you are reading this article before registering, you can register via the link below to have the referral code applied automatically. There is no hassle of entering it and no risk of forgetting to do so.

Q14. Does using a referral code incur registration fees or commissions?
No, it does not. Using a referral code is completely free. Opening an account itself is free, and no additional costs are incurred by entering a referral code.
On the contrary, you will be granted 1,000 yen worth of BTC as a bonus, so there is no reason not to use it.
Summary of how to use a referral code
Organizing the common questions from bulletin boards, the stumbling blocks can be summarized into the following three points:
Where to enter: Enter it in the 'Referral Code (Optional)' field during the registration form. If you access via a referral link, it will be entered automatically.
When to enter: Only once before registration. It cannot be added later.
How to enter: Copy and paste it, being careful to distinguish between uppercase and lowercase letters.
If you follow these three points, you will be sure to receive your benefits.

Conclusion
The questions frequently seen on bulletin boards regarding BitTrade referral codes are almost always one of three patterns: 'I don't know where to enter it,' 'Can I enter it later,' or 'Will I really receive it?'
To summarize the answers: the referral code is applied automatically if you enter it in the registration form or register via a referral link. It cannot be added later. You can receive up to 2,000 yen worth of BTC by meeting the conditions (as of the survey in April 2026).
As it is a domestic exchange registered with the Financial Services Agency, there are no safety issues, and your personal information will not be shared with the referrer. Please feel free to use the code and get started with confidence.
