# Trading Bonus: Try Everstrike Mainnet Without Depositing

> Promotional evUSD for trying Everstrike Mainnet without depositing. Profits are withdrawable; bonuses cannot be used for spot, withdrawals, or redemptions.

A trading bonus is promotional evUSD that Everstrike credits to your account so you can explore Mainnet trading without depositing your own capital. Any profits you generate while trading with a bonus are real and fully withdrawable. Only the bonus principal itself carries restrictions.

## Restrictions

A trading bonus cannot be used for:

* Spot trading
* Paying for AI strategy evaluations (AI credits)
* Withdrawals
* Redemptions
* Conversion into other assets

> [!NOTE]
>
> Bonuses are intended for perpetual futures and perpetual options trading only. If you want to trade spot or withdraw funds, you need to deposit your own capital.

## Fair Use

> [!WARNING]
>
> **Do not farm trading bonuses through multiple related accounts.** Creating dozens or hundreds of accounts to repeatedly claim bonuses violates Everstrike's fair-use policy. Accounts that breach this rule may be blacklisted from CEX mode. Affected users can still access Everstrike in DEX mode.
