FAQs

What happens if my collateral value drops?
If the collateral value falls below the required maintenance level, a margin call will be triggered. If additional collateral is not provided, the system may liquidate part of your collateral to cover the loan.

Can I repay my loan early?
Yes, early repayment is allowed. Interest is charged based on the borrowing period, so repaying early can reduce total costs.
-
What cryptocurrencies are available for loans?
Bitget offers multiple cryptocurrencies for borrowing and as collateral. Check the Crypto Loans page in the app for the latest supported assets.
-
Is there a maximum borrowing limit?
Yes, borrowing limits depend on factors such as collateral type, loan-to-value (LTV) ratio, and market conditions.
-
Can I renew my loan?
Fixed-term loans may offer renewal options. You can check the renewal eligibility in the Current Loans section.
