# Sponsored Rewards

To help partners and communities incentivize trading and lending volume for projects while promoting branding, arbitrary tokens can now be used as a reward for a token pair. Our partners can reward either trading, lending, or both. This feature provides full financial tools for the fast-moving crypto markets.

## **Sponsored Trading Reward**

Traders can participate by margin trading any sponsored pair. Rewards are distributed to traders who long or short the sponsored pair. Sponsored rewards are distributed to traders **based on borrowing amount and time.**
