Where the rewards go first: check your spot account

Whether you mined on Launchpool, received interest from fixed savings, or earned from holding coins, the first stop for your BNB rewards is always your spot account.

[What to do]: Go to your spot account to confirm the rewards have arrived.

[How to do it]: Open the Binance app, tap Assets at the bottom, then Spot, and find the BNB row. If the balance has increased, the rewards are in. The next step is key: turn it from idle into an earning asset.

Three common destinations, the core difference is flexibility

After your rewards arrive, you have three main options. The difference is not about returns, but about whether your funds can be moved at any time.

Option 1: Simple Earn Flexible (easiest, no lock-up)

If you don't want to overcomplicate things and just want your idle BNB to earn a bit automatically, turn on Simple Earn Flexible.

[How to do it]: On the AssetsSpot page, find the gray Simple Earn tag next to BNB, tap it, read the terms, and activate it. After that, your spot BNB holdings will automatically start earning daily rewards paid to your spot account.

[Completion standard]: The tag next to BNB changes from gray to yellow. Rewards start calculating the next day and are credited to your spot account between 08:00 and 16:00 (UTC+8) on the third day.

Features: No lock-up required, can be traded or withdrawn at any time. Good for users who don't want their coins locked up.

Option 2: BNB Vault (combines Launchpool, but with a trade-off)

If you want to earn flexible interest and Launchpool new coin mining rewards at the same time, you can put it in the BNB Vault.

[How to do it]: Go to EarnSimple Earn or search for "BNB Vault", then subscribe your spot BNB.

[Completion standard]: After subscribing, your BNB moves from your spot account to your Earn account. The Vault page shows your holdings and accumulated rewards.

Key info: Vault assets cannot simultaneously participate in Launchpool mining. The Vault itself is an aggregator that bundles flexible interest and Launchpool rewards together. It is not an extra bonus on top.

Option 3: Fixed savings products (higher yield, but locked)

If you are sure you won't need this BNB for a while, you can put it into Fixed Savings (Simple Earn fixed products) for a higher yield than flexible options.

[How to do it]: EarnSimple Earn → choose a BNB fixed product, pick a term (such as 30, 60, 90, or 120 days), enter the amount, and subscribe.

[Completion standard]: Your Earn account shows the BNB fixed holding. You cannot withdraw directly during the lock-up period.

A table to clarify the differences

DestinationYield featureLock-upCounts for LaunchpoolWho it suits
Spot account (do nothing)No yieldNo lockNoPeople ready to sell at any time
Simple Earn FlexibleDaily interestNo lockNoPeople who want flexibility and no hassle
BNB VaultFlexible interest + LaunchpoolNo lockAutomatically countedPeople who want both interest and new coin mining
Fixed savingsHigher rateLocked, early redemption loses yieldAutomatically countedPeople sure they won't need the money for a while

High-risk reminder: If your BNB goes into the Vault, it cannot additionally receive Launchpool new coin mining rewards. The Vault itself bundles flexible interest and Launchpool rewards together. So it is not for "stacking rewards", but for "saving effort".
