Binance Locked Earn Early Redemption: When Do Your Principal and Interest Arrive?

 / 
 / 
1

Early redemption of Locked Earn products means principal and interest are not credited at the same time. The principal is returned to your Spot Wallet, but the interest already distributed will be deducted from the principal. The final amount you receive is the principal minus the already paid interest. The whole process takes 48-72 hours.

Below are the funds arrival rules and specific steps for early redemption.

Step 1: Check if your Locked Earn product supports "Early Redemption"

Not all Locked Earn products can be redeemed early. Some free Locked Earn products distributed as marketing campaign rewards do not support early redemption.

What to do: On the Locked Earn holdings page, check if there is an "Early Redemption" button.

How to do it:

  • Open the Binance App, go to [Assets] - [Earn Account] - [Earn] - [Locked Products].

  • Find the relevant holding, tap to enter the details page. If there is an [Early Redemption] button at the bottom of the page, the product supports early redemption.

  • If the button is not clickable or does not exist, it means the product does not support early redemption, and you can only wait for the maturity date for automatic redemption.

When is it done: You have confirmed that the current product supports early redemption.

Common failure reason: Not noticing that some free Locked Earn products from promotional campaigns cannot be redeemed early, and only checking the reason after the redemption fails with a system message.

Step 2: Understand the rules for handling "Principal" and "Interest" in early redemption

Early redemption will result in losing all accumulated interest — this is the rule, not a bug.

What to do: Understand the specific handling of principal and interest.

How to do it:

Fund TypeHandling Method
Already distributed interestFully deducted from the returned principal. If you have already received daily interest during the lock-up period, these interest payments will be deducted from the principal by the system.
Remaining principalThe amount after deducting the already distributed interest will be returned to your Spot Wallet.
Future interest not yet distributedAll forfeited, and will not be distributed.

Example: You subscribed to 100 BNB in a Locked Earn product, and received 3 BNB in interest during the lock-up period. Upon early redemption, the final amount you receive is 100 - 3 = 97 BNB. The 3 BNB interest is effectively taken back.

When is it done: You understand the calculation logic for the credited amount after early redemption — "Principal - Already distributed interest = Actual amount received", not "Principal + remaining interest".

Step 3: Early Redemption Process and Arrival Waiting Time

What to do: After confirming the rules, proceed with the early redemption action.

How to do it:

  1. On the Locked Earn product details page, tap [Early Redemption].

  2. System will pop up a confirmation window, showing the estimated arrival time and amount. Binance redemptions are available daily from 00:10 to 23:50 (UTC).

  3. Tap confirm to complete the early redemption request.

  4. Wait for the assets to arrive:

ScenarioEstimated Arrival Time
Normal condition48-72 hours
Submitted before 8:00 AM Beijing timeMay arrive in 2 days
Submitted after 8:00 AM Beijing timeMay take 3 days
Extreme market volatility / large number of redemption requestsMay be delayed

When is it done: You have submitted the early redemption request and know you need to wait 48-72 hours.

Prerequisite: Before submitting, confirm that the product does support early redemption. If there is no "Early Redemption" option on the asset page, the product does not support this action.

Risk warning: Once the early redemption action is confirmed, it is irreversible. Once submitted, it cannot be canceled or reversed.

How to confirm the operation is correct?

After submitting the early redemption request, do three things:

  1. Check the request status: In [Earn Account] - [Locked Products], check whether the holding status has changed to "Redeeming" or a similar processing status.

  2. Wait for arrival and verify the amount: After 48-72 hours, check the [Spot Wallet] to see if the returned funds have been received. Use "Principal - previously received interest" to verify that the credited amount matches expectations.

  3. If it hasn't arrived after 72 hours: Contact Binance customer support, providing the redemption request time as a reference. Extreme market volatility or a large number of redemption requests may cause delays.

Note: If the funds in the Locked Earn product are used as collateral for a loan, you need to first repay the collateral via the Loan page before you can perform the redemption.
