Questions common to every WhiteBIT partner program. For program-specific questions, see the FAQ on each program funnel.

Onboarding and eligibility

Partner onboarding and KYB

Partner programs are approval-gated: every application is individually reviewed, and institutional onboarding completes KYB of the company plus KYC of the responsible person before provisioning. See Institutional Onboarding.

Where to apply

Program applications go to institutional@whitebit.com with the registered legal entity, licenses held, the intended account structure, who performs end-customer verification, and the countries served. The full intake list is on Partner Solutions.

Choosing an integration path

Partner labels overlap, so routing is by structure: who holds the end user’s account and who performs verification. See Partner Solutions and the integration models concept.

Authentication

Primary authentication method

The primary method is an HMAC-SHA512-signed API key, sent with the X-TXC-APIKEY, X-TXC-PAYLOAD, and X-TXC-SIGNATURE headers. See First API Call.

Acting on a customer’s own account

Partners act on a customer’s own account through the OAuth-based Fast API Key flow, which issues a user-scoped key from the WhiteBIT consent screen.

OAuth status

Fast API Key is live. The classic OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code Grant flow for direct account-data access is deprecated and scheduled for removal on November 1, 2026. See OAuth 2.0.

Test environments

Sandbox availability

WhiteBIT does not offer a public testnet or sandbox. Test on the live API with minimum order sizes and low-minimum assets; Demo Tokens are available for risk-free spot practice. See the Go-Live Checklist.

Fees and terms

Program fees and revenue share

Fee schedules and revenue-share terms are set per program and agreed individually during onboarding; the applicable figures are on each program overview and the canonical program pages. See Partner Solutions.

Rate limits

How rate limits are applied

Rate limits are set per scope and per endpoint rather than as a single global value, and are counted per IP address. See Rate Limits.

Regions and base URL

API base URL

The global REST base URL is https://whitebit.com. Regional environment options are confirmed during onboarding. See First API Call.
