Bybit has introduced a limited-time zero-fee trading campaign on its TradFi platform, removing both commissions and swap fees on stock CFDs as it expands its presence in traditional financial markets.

The exchange said the offer runs until July, and applies to more than 380 instruments, including global equities, commodities, indices, and forex pairs. The campaign also includes rebates of up to $100,000.

Zero-Fee Trading Offer

Users can trade stock CFDs without paying commissions or overnight swap fees during the campaign period, according to the exchange. The instruments include shares linked to companies such as Apple, Tesla, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Google. The offering also covers commodities like gold and oil, as well as major indices and currency pairs. All trades are settled in USDT through a single account.

The platform provides leverage of up to 5x. Bybit added that users can receive up to 2,000 USDT in swap fee rebates. The pricing model uses straight-through processing, which removes additional markups.

The campaign coincides with the launch of Bybit’s real-world asset portal, which brings together its TradFi and tokenized asset products. The portal includes stock CFD trading, tokenized equities, tokenized precious metals, and perpetual contracts linked to traditional assets. It also integrates yield products tied to real-world assets.

Expansion of RWA Products

Bybit said the setup allows users to access different asset classes and trading formats within one account. The company first introduced traditional asset CFD trading in 2022. It said demand for exposure to traditional markets has increased among crypto-focused traders in recent years.

Over the past few years, major crypto platforms have started to add FX, commodities, indices, and equity-style exposure on top of spot and perpetual crypto trading. Bybit launched its TradFi unit to give clients access to gold, indices, commodities, forex, and stock CFDs directly from the Bybit app, without needing separate MT5 installations.

Rivals Step Up TradFi CFDs

Competitors such as Crypto.com and Kraken have also explored traditional instruments for their user bases, generally via onshore, licensed entities in the UK and EU.

Other crypto exchanges that reflect this TradFi via CFDs trend include BitMEX and Phemex, which both now offer perpetual contracts or CFD-like exposure to stocks, commodities, and FX alongside crypto derivatives.

Platforms such as eToro and CEX.io are also a part of the broader crypto/CFD convergence, with multi-asset CFD trading available from a single interface. Bybit now sits among with several rivals that actively market integrated access to FX, commodities, indices, and, in some cases, equity-style products to a crypto-native client base.
