What APY Can You Earn Storing USDT on Binance?

Published on 2026-03-13 | 3 min

Analyzing actual yields from storing USDT in various Binance products.

Got USDT sitting idle? Put it to work earning interest. Different products offer 1% to 15%+ APY. Register on Binance and download the Binance app.

Flexible Earn

Deposit/withdraw anytime. 1-5% APY (higher during bull markets when borrowing demand surges). Best for parking trading capital.

Fixed Earn

Lock for 30-120 days. 3-8% APY. Limited quotas fill fast. Early redemption may forfeit interest.

Dual Investment

Advertised APY can be 30-100%+, but it's annualized for short-term products, and you face conversion risk if the target price is hit.

Funding Rate Arbitrage

Buy spot + short futures to earn funding rate. Can yield 15-30%+ annualized during bullish sentiment, but complex and rate direction can flip.

Compared to Traditional Finance

USDT yields significantly beat bank deposits. But USDT carries issuer risk (Tether transparency debates) and exchange counterparty risk. Don't convert all savings to USDT.

Interest Distribution

Flexible: daily compounding. Fixed: at maturity. Check the Earn page for detailed breakdowns.
