How to Set Up Auto-Invest on Binance

After signing up for Binance, Auto-Invest makes investing effortless. Download the Binance APP to set up your DCA plan. Dollar-cost averaging (DCA) is a widely recognized investment strategy. Our site shows you how to set it up on Binance.

What Is DCA?

Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) means investing a fixed amount at regular intervals, regardless of the current price. For example: investing $50 weekly into BTC, whether the price is up or down.

Benefits

Lower average cost: Buy more when cheap, less when expensive
Reduce emotional bias: No need to time the market
Build investing habits: Regular contributions, long-term accumulation
Perfect for busy people: Set it and forget it

Setup Steps

Step 1: Find Auto-Invest

Binance APP -> Earn -> Auto-Invest

Step 2: Choose Coin(s)

Browse available coins. Select BTC, ETH, or create a portfolio investing in multiple coins simultaneously.

Step 3: Set Parameters

Amount: USDT per purchase (e.g., 50, 100 USDT)
Frequency: Daily / Weekly (choose day) / Bi-weekly / Monthly (choose date)
Time: Execution time each day
Source: Spot wallet or funding wallet

Step 4: Activate

Review the plan details, confirm, tap "Create Plan." The system executes automatically at your set times.

Step 5: Ensure Sufficient USDT

If your balance is insufficient at execution time, that purchase is skipped. Keep enough USDT available.

Strategy Tips

Coin Selection

Beginners should start with major coins: BTC (largest market cap), ETH (largest smart contract platform), BNB (exchange token with fee benefits).

Amount Setting

Only invest spare money. Start with $10-20 per week and increase as comfortable.

Frequency

Weekly DCA is most recommended -- good balance of frequency and cost. Daily for maximum averaging; monthly for larger amounts.

Long-term Commitment

DCA works best over time. At least 6 months, ideally 1-3 years. Do not stop during market dips -- that is when you lower your average cost the most.

Managing Your Plan

Edit: Change amount, frequency, or other parameters anytime
Pause: Temporarily stop purchases while keeping the plan
Terminate: Stop the plan entirely. Already purchased coins remain in your account.

FAQ

Does DCA guarantee profits?

No. DCA reduces average cost but cannot eliminate risk. If the coin trends down long-term, you may still lose money.

Can I DCA multiple coins simultaneously?

Yes. Create multiple plans or use the portfolio feature to invest in several coins per purchase.

Where do purchased coins go?

Automatically to your spot wallet. You can use them freely or deposit into Earn products for additional yield.

Are there DCA fees?

Auto-Invest uses market buy orders with the standard 0.1% spot fee. BNB deduction reduces this to 0.075%.
