# Why Can't I Withdraw My Promotional Credit?

The promotional credit can only be used for trading. It cannot be withdrawn until after it has been used for trading.

To withdraw any balance from the promotional credit, you must:

1. Link a payment method
2. Make an initial deposit

Once the deposit fully clears, typically within **2–3 business days**, eligible funds become available to withdraw to the same linked payment method.
