Comparison

​
API routing: Margin vs Futures

Margin Trading and Futures Trading share the same API endpoints. The pair name is the only differentiator:
  • Spot pair (e.g., BTC_USDT) → Margin Trading
  • Perpetual pair (e.g., BTC_PERP) → Futures Trading
All endpoints under /api/v4/order/collateral/ and /api/v4/collateral-account/ serve both products. There is no separate “margin” or “futures” parameter in the request body — the market pair name alone determines which product is used.
Both Margin and Futures draw from the same Collateral balance. Leverage is also configured account-wide via a single endpoint — it applies to both products simultaneously.
