Bitget has rolled out an updated institutional API rate-limit framework, effective September 3, 2026. The new framework raises the top configurable single-account ceiling to 600 requests per second per User ID (UID) for eligible market-maker (MM1) and PRO-tier (PRO6) clients trading under the exchange's unified trading account.

The aggregate master-sub-account rate-limit cap is now up to 120,000 RPS, quoted separately for UTA spot and UTA futures. However, limits are not applied automatically; unconfigured sub-accounts default to 10 requests per second.

This change affects only top-tier MM1 and PRO6 clients. Lower tiers receive proportionally smaller caps. Institutions must configure quotas per UID according to their trading strategy and account structure, ensuring the combined allocation across sub-accounts does not exceed the aggregate cap for that tier.
