Binance currently has three main groups of available official addresses: the main site binance.com, regional mirrors binance.info and binance.bz, and a group of functional subdomains (accounts, app, p2p, academy, etc.). All domains share the same account and fund systems; logging in from any entry point will take you to the same account. To open the backend for trading directly, click the Binance Official Website to enter the optimal node for your identified region. To use Binance on your phone, download the Binance Official APP first; iPhone users can follow the iOS Installation Tutorial to switch their Apple ID before downloading. Below, we will list the purposes, target users, and access stability differences for these domains, along with real-world latency comparisons in different network environments.
1. Main Site and Mirrors: Three Core Domains
The three most frequently asked-about domains for Binance are: binance.com, binance.info, and binance.bz. These three are completely the same system at the data layer, but differ slightly in server deployment, CDN routing, and certificate issuance.
No. 1: binance.com (Global Main Site)
binance.com is Binance's flagship domain. Registered in 2017 and operated by Binance Holdings Ltd., it carries over 80% of global traffic. It uses a DigiCert EV certificate and its CDN primarily utilizes Cloudflare enterprise nodes. This domain is the first choice for most regions.
Stability Characteristics: Access latency in the US, Europe, and Southeast Asia is in the 80-200ms range. Access from residential networks in mainland China can be volatile, occasionally failing to open due to DNS or CDN routing anomalies.
No. 2: binance.info (Official Mirror #1)
binance.info is an official backup domain registered around 2019. It shares data with the .com backend but has an independently deployed frontend, primarily serving users with restricted access to the main site. The CDN configuration for .info is not perfectly synced with .com; sometimes the main site is down while .info works, and vice versa.
Stability Characteristics: Access stability from mainland China residential networks is generally better than .com, with international latency being slightly higher by 20-50ms.
No. 3: binance.bz (Official Mirror #2)
binance.bz is a deeper-level backup domain registered under the Belize country-code top-level domain. This domain exists primarily to handle extreme situations where the first two domains are both restricted, serving as a final safeguard.
Stability Characteristics: Its performance in East and Southeast Asia is usually better than .info, but it has higher latency when accessed from Europe and the US.
2. Stability Comparison for Main Site and Mirrors
The following table shows the performance of the three major domains in different regions as of April 2026 (smaller values represent better stability; timeout rates are calculated from 50 consecutive requests):
| Region | binance.com Avg Latency | binance.info Avg Latency | binance.bz Avg Latency | .com Timeout Rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mainland China (Telecom) | Fluctuating 400-2000ms | Stable 320ms | Stable 380ms | Approx. 35% |
| Mainland China (Unicom) | Fluctuating 280-1500ms | Stable 260ms | Stable 310ms | Approx. 22% |
| Mainland China (Mobile) | Fluctuating 500-3000ms | Fluctuating 380-900ms | Stable 420ms | Approx. 48% |
| Hong Kong, China | Stable 60ms | Stable 75ms | Stable 90ms | 0% |
| Singapore | Stable 50ms | Stable 65ms | Stable 80ms | 0% |
| Japan | Stable 90ms | Stable 110ms | Stable 130ms | 0% |
| US West | Stable 40ms | Stable 55ms | Stable 170ms | 0% |
Conclusion: Mainland China users should prioritize binance.info. Mobile network users, if .info is also unstable, should switch to binance.bz. Users in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, and Korea can directly use the main site binance.com.
3. Special Region Domains: binance.us, Binance Japan, etc.
In addition to the three main domains, Binance operates through completely independent legal entities in certain countries/regions with independent licenses. These domains also look official, but accounts are not shared.
No. 1: binance.us (US Independent Entity)
The operating entity is BAM Trading Services Inc., which is a different company from the global site. US users accessing binance.com are automatically redirected to binance.us. Accounts, KYC, coin support, and fees are all independent: binance.us currently supports about 160 coins, far fewer than the 350+ on the global site.
No. 2: binance.co.jp (Japanese Entity)
The operating entity is Binance Japan K.K., licensed by the Japanese FSA. Japanese users who complete KYC on the global site will be guided to migrate to the Japan site. The Japan site supports JPY deposits and withdrawals, but the types of trading pairs and derivatives have been reduced.
No. 3: binance.bh (Bahrain), binance.com.tr (Turkey-related), etc.
These are local sites established based on local licenses or operational needs. Regular users do not need to concern themselves with these unless they hold local identification documents and wish to trade within the local regulatory framework.
4. List of Functional Subdomains
Besides the main domains, Binance has a group of functional subdomains designed to optimize loading speeds and provide access security isolation. You usually don't need to enter these manually, but they are useful for troubleshooting or configuring firewall whitelists.
| Subdomain | Main Function | Direct Access Required? |
|---|---|---|
| accounts.binance.com | Login, Registration, KYC | Auto-redirects during login |
| app.binance.com | APP download, QR login | Access manually to download APP |
| p2p.binance.com | C2C Fiat Trading | Main site P2P entry redirects |
| academy.binance.com | Binance Academy (Education) | Access content independently |
| api.binance.com | Spot REST API | For developers |
| fapi.binance.com | USDⓈ-M Futures API | For developers |
| dapi.binance.com | COIN-M Futures API | For developers |
| stream.binance.com | WebSocket Market Data | For developers |
| research.binance.com | Binance Research Reports | Access independently |
| nft.binance.com | NFT Marketplace | Redirects from main site |
| square.binance.com | Community Square | Redirects from main site |
Whitelist Configuration Suggestions
If you are on a corporate or school network and need to have IT open a whitelist, add the following four domains to cover 95% of scenarios:
*.binance.com(covers all subdomains)*.binance.info*.binance.bzcdn.jsdelivr.net(some Binance frontend static resources depend on this)
5. Official Methods to Confirm Available Domains
Occasionally, Binance may add or adjust mirror domains. It is very important to know how to verify if a new domain is official. Here are three official verification channels:
Channel 1: In-app Announcements
Open the Binance APP > Top Notification Bar > Announcement Center. Binance will post here every time it adds an official domain. This is the most authoritative channel because the APP distribution chain (App Store / Official APK) is independent of website domains.
Channel 2: Official X (Twitter) Account
The official Binance X account is @binance (verified blue check), and the CEO's account is @cz_binance. New domains will be uniformly announced by the official accounts. Note the verification badges, as there are many imitator accounts.
Channel 3: WHOIS Query
Use whois.com to query domain registration information. The "Registrant Organization" field for official domains will be "Binance Holdings Limited" or its associated subsidiaries. The registration period will be at least 2 years, and the contact email will be under the binance.com domain.
6. Switching Suggestions When Access is Unstable
If the main site cannot be opened, follow these priorities to switch:
- First Priority: Change the domain (.com → .info → .bz)
- Second Priority: Change the network (Residential → Mobile Hotspot → Corporate Broadband)
- Third Priority: Change the DNS (Change to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8)
- Fourth Priority: Enable Browser DoH (Chrome Secure DNS)
- Fifth Priority: Switch to the APP (APP's anti-interference capability is stronger than the web)
- Last Safeguard: Use a VPN in a compliant environment
Following this order, more than 90% of access problems can be resolved in steps 1-3 without needing a VPN.
FAQ
Q: Why not unify all these official domains into one? A: Binance has different regulatory requirements in various countries/regions, and a single domain cannot simultaneously satisfy the compliance conditions of all jurisdictions. For example, the US must operate independently via binance.us, and Japan must use binance.co.jp. Mirror domains (info/bz) exist for access disaster recovery.
Q: If I log in on a new domain, do I need to redo KYC? A: If switching between the three major主力 domains (.com/.info/.bz), accounts and KYC are completely shared, and no re-verification is needed. If switching from the global site to binance.us or binance.co.jp, these are different legal entities, and you will need to resubmit KYC on the local site.
Q: How can I tell if a domain starting with "binance" is official? A: Three core steps: First, look at the suffix (only a few like .com/.info/.bz/.us/.co.jp are official); second, check if the WHOIS registration information is Binance Holdings or its affiliates; third, look at the domain age (binance-xxx domains younger than 6 months are almost certainly phishing).
Q: Will more mirror domains be launched in the future? A: Binance dynamically adds or removes mirror domains based on access conditions. Official announcements will be made on the APP and X account when new domains are added. If you see a domain you haven't seen before, verify it through the APP announcements first; do not blindly trust third-party groups or email prompts.
Q: Which domain is safer to log in from? A: Safety depends on whether you are visiting the true official website, not on which domain you use. The three major主力 domains have identical security levels. It's recommended to remember one most stable entry point and save it as a bookmark (such as binance.info if it works well for you) rather than searching for an entry point via search engines every time—search ads are often occupied by phishing sites.
