Bitget existing account: can you add a referral code?
Bitget’s help pages describe no way to add or change a referral code after registration, its Affiliate Program says attempts to invite already-registered users will not be recognised, and a deleted account’s phone, email or ID can only register again after 30 days. Enter the code on the first signup form.

Questions about existing accounts
I forgot the Bitget referral code. What now?
Bitget publishes no way to add it afterwards. Ask official support about your account; do not rely on third-party “rebind” promises.
Can an affiliate invite my existing Bitget account?
Bitget’s Affiliate terms say invitations of already-registered users are not recognised.
Can I delete my account and sign up again?
Bitget requires a 30-day wait before the same phone, email or ID can register again. We do not recommend it as a way to change referrer.
