Binance offers a cryptocurrency red packet feature that lets you send crypto red packets to friends via a link. Whether for holiday greetings or everyday sharing, crypto red packets are a fun way to engage. If you don't have a Binance account yet, register on Binance first — you can send and receive red packets right after registration.

Red Packet Types Explained
Equal Split
Everyone receives exactly the same amount.
Example: You send 100 USDT in 10 packets, so each person gets 10 USDT
Random
Each person receives a randomly allocated amount, but the total remains the same.
Example: You send 100 USDT in 10 packets — someone might get 20, another might get 5, but total is 100
Puzzle Red Packet
You can set a riddle or question — only those who answer correctly can claim. Adds a fun element.
Fees
Sending Binance red packets typically incurs no additional fees — the total amount is deducted from your spot account.
Which Cryptocurrencies Can You Use?
Supported currencies include but are not limited to:
- USDT
- BTC
- ETH
- BNB
- DOGE
- And other major cryptocurrencies
Check the app for the specific available currencies.
What If the Red Packet Expires?
If the red packet isn't fully claimed within the validity period:
- Unclaimed funds are returned to your account
- Already claimed funds are unaffected
- Returns are typically processed automatically after expiration
Use Cases
- Holiday red packets: Send crypto red packets to friends and family for holidays and birthdays
- Community events: Liven up community groups with red packets
- Promotion: Send red packets to friends without Binance accounts to encourage registration
- Bounty rewards: Use as rewards for task completion
Important Considerations
- Only send to people you know: Don't widely distribute red packet links in public forums
- Watch for phishing: Don't click "red packet" links from unknown sources — they could be phishing
- Genuine Binance red packets always use Binance's official domain
- Send within your means: Sent red packets cannot be reversed (but can be cancelled before being claimed)
Summary
Binance red packets are a fun crypto social feature — sending and receiving are both simple. Only claim red packets from trusted sources and watch out for phishing links. Surprise your friends with a crypto red packet!
