Paid to Trade: Introducing Loyalty Ranks & Cashback at SwissBorg
Benjy Lavelle
Loyalty PM
SwissBorg is entering a new era, one where every trade rewards you directly and helps you unlock greater perks. Set to launch 30 Sep 2025, Loyalty Ranks and our groundbreaking Cashback system replaces Premium and Borger Journey to create a fairer, smarter and more rewarding experience for every community member.
From now on, you do not just trade, you get Paid to Trade.
Loyalty Ranks: The Next Chapter
Over the years, Premium and Borger Journey Camps helped SwissBorg grow, but feedback from our community was clear:
- “Fees are too high.”
- “The 12-month lock is too long.”
- “Benefits are not always clear.”
We listened. Loyalty Ranks is the evolution: a single, transparent system built entirely around locked BORG, where progress is clear and rewards are directly tied to your rank. But it’s not just a stunning visual app update, it also unlocks multiple perks inside the SwissBorg ecosystem.
What Ranks Unlock
Let’s start with answering the feedback head on:
“Fees are too high” - We’re reducing the standard exchange fee from 1.49% to 0.99%!
“The 12-month lock is too long” - We’ve slashed this to a cooldown of just 2 weeks, making it easier to join, test and climb ranks!
And as for benefits, they’re now incredibly clear, and include an awesome new feature - Cashback on every trade!
- Cashback (Paid to Trade) → The newest and most exciting perk, built into every trade, with up to 90% in fees given back.
- Priority and Bigger Alpha Access → Be first to access Early Deals and Trading Vaults, and get higher allocations.
- Governance Rewards → Earn 3–5% APY just by voting and shaping SwissBorg’s future.
- Boosted APYs → Increase yields across Earn strategies.
The New Loyalty Ranks
Here’s how many Loyalty Points you need to unlock a new rank:
One locked BORG = one Loyalty Point.
Points Multipliers - Respecting History, Building the Future
Already Premium? Your BORG will be migrated seamlessly.
In addition, ICO participants, Genesis holders, Series A backers and early contributors will benefit from multipliers that boost their Loyalty Points, and potentially rank, ensuring that early support continues to count.
Your non-cumulative Multiplier acts on the number of locked BORG you have, to boost your Loyalty Score.
Shorter Locking - Just Two Weeks Cooldown
Locking is now simpler too: just 2 weeks cooldown instead of 12 months lock, making it easier to join, test and climb ranks.
For the Elite
For the ambitious, the Dynamic Elite Ranks (Top 1000, Top 100, Top 10) will soon bring exclusive perks, direct access to management and in-person events.
Paid to Trade: Exchange Cashback That Fuels the Ecosystem
Trading powers the new tokenomic engine for BORG. Here’s how it works:
- You make a trade (e.g. swapping 0.01 BTC into 1,000 USDC).
- We use a portion of the trading fee to buy back BORG directly from the market.
- The BORG is credited back to you as Cashback.
It is automatic, transparent and will happen on a set day each week. (For only the initial cashback payment, the deposit will be with you at the end of the first month after launch)
Exchange Cashback by Rank - Reach Exchange Fees of Just 0.1%!
The higher your Loyalty Rank, the greater your BORG cashback, and the less you’ll pay to trade! Reach the equivalent of just 0.1% exchange fees with the highest rank, Elite:
Even Standard users now enjoy lower fees and 5% cashback, making every single trade a driver of BORG demand. Paid to Trade Cashback will be a part of the entire SwissBorg ecosystem. For now it applies to regular instant exchanges, Auto-Invest transactions and Limit Orders, but Crypto Bundles and Managed Portfolios will be included in the future.
Earn Yield Boost by Rank
In addition to cashback, as with our Premium system, the higher your Rank, the greater your Earn yield boost.
Why Pay to Trade Cashback Matters: A Flywheel for BORG
- Every trade = BORG buying pressure.
- Every cashback = BORG is auto-staked.
- Every rank = BORG locked.
Together, Cashback + Loyalty Ranks create a powerful loop of scarcity and demand:
- Cashback adds +$15M per year (conservative estimate) in buying pressure.
- Locked BORG reduces selling pressure by 8% (conservative estimate).
- Target: 50% of total supply locked.
The result: a stronger, healthier and more sustainable BORG economy.
In Closing: The Era of Paid to Trade
SwissBorg’s vision has always been financial freedom for all. With Loyalty Ranks and Paid to Trade Cashback, that vision is stronger than ever:
- More rewards for every member.
- More buying demand for BORG.
- More alignment between SwissBorg and the community.
Know your rank. Plan your path. Trade your way up.
Because now, with SwissBorg, you do not just trade - you get PAID TO TRADE.
Standby for the launch on 30th September 2025!

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does locking BORG benefit me?
A: Locking BORG increases your Loyalty Rank, which unlocks exclusive perks like higher cashback rates and early access to new opportunities. Additionally, it unlocks voting power - that can be used to shape the future of SwissBorg & earn rewards.
Q: How does locking affect my Loyalty Rank?
A: Your Loyalty Rank increases only through BORG locking and your Multiplier. 1 BORG locked = 1 point in your loyalty score, which is used to calculate your Rank.
Q: How often is the Cashback payout?
A: The first Cashback payout will be made approximately one month after the scheme starts. After this, cashback will be delivered every week. You’ll find “Next Cashback Payout” displayed in days on the Loyalty Rank screen of your app.
Q: Where can I find my Cashback payout?
A: Your Cashback payout is credited directly to your Locked BORG account.
Q: Will my Cashback be automatically locked?
A: Yes, the BORG sent will be directly placed in the Locked BORG account. It can be unlocked at any time and will be available after a 14-day cooldown period.
Q: How is BORG locking converted to Voting Power?
A: For every 10 BORG locked, you gain 1 Voting Power, ensuring fair and proportional influence. You do not need to achieve a specific rank to increase your Voting Power, it’s directly proportional to your locked BORG. Your Multiplier does not increase your Voting Power, it’s from locked BORG only!
Q: What rewards do I get for voting?
A: Guardians Rewards are distributed in BORG at the end of each quarterly session and are maximised by your locked BORG at the time of voting and from participating in all the votes that take place. The better SwissBorg performs, the more BORG gets allocated to the Guardians!
Q: Is there a cooldown for unlocking?
A: Yes, there’s a 14-day cooldown period. During this time, you lose voting power on the BORG you’ve unlocked until the funds return to your account. If your Rank decreases by unlocking the BORG, you will also lose the associated benefits.
Q: Can I cancel a transaction in Cooldown?
A: Yes, cancelling the cooldown will automatically relock your BORG.
Q: What happens to my Premium locked BORG?
A: When the new Rank system launches, the BORG in your Premium will be auto-transferred to your locked BORG account where they will immediately contribute to your Rank. At that point, they will exist under the same terms as all locked BORG, including the 14-day cooldown.
Q: Do I get cashback when I buy a Bundle?
A: Not yet. Crypto Bundles and Managed Portfolios do not count for Cashback for now, but they will be included in the future.
