Referral codes
A referral code is a long-term fee arrangement, not a coupon. The code goes in during sign-up and cannot be swapped later, but an account that never had one may still add one under Binance’s conditions. Each rule is quoted from the exchange’s own help page, with the month it was checked.

Add a Binance Referral Code After Registration
Does the account already have a referrer? Then it cannot be changed or removed. Never had one? Then official routes remain, each with conditions: bind within 30 days, self-rebind if it has never traded, be recalled after 90 inactive days, or apply to rebind. Closing the account to start over is refused by the rules.

How to Create a Binance Account, Step by Step
On the Binance sign-up page you enter an email or phone number and press Register, agree to the terms, enter the 6-digit code, set a password and confirm the referral code. That last screen is the only permanent one, and the easiest to skip past.

Before You Open a Crypto Exchange Account
An eligible residence, an ID that matches it, a camera, an email you will keep and a second factor are what to have ready. The login, the account type, the referral code and the declared country are what to decide before the first screen, because each is hard or impossible to change later.

How to Close a Binance Account: Checklist
The Close Account button sits under Account, Security, Manage Account, and it works only once your history is downloaded and every account type is empty. Closing cannot be undone: a new account's verification may wait 30 days or more, and a new referral relationship earns nothing. Suspicious activity calls for Disable Account instead.
