What this means

A shutdown deadline has been announced. Move your workflow before you lose access.

Close futures positions, redeem Earn and staking products and cancel open orders before all trading ends on August 26, 2026 (01:00 UTC). Withdrawals stay available through the wind-down until the platform officially closes on January 31, 2027 (15:59 UTC), but requests can pass extra compliance checks (KYC, address screening, source-of-funds reviews), so withdraw early rather than waiting. Download account and transaction records before closure; BitMart promises a limited login window afterward for records and remaining withdrawal requests.

Migration checklist
  1. Export your data now: files, content, records, anything you cannot recreate.
  2. Save billing and invoice history for your records.
  3. Export API keys, webhooks, and integration config before access ends.
  4. List the workflows and integrations you actually depend on.
  5. Pick a live replacement below that matches how you use it.
  6. Recreate and test one critical workflow on the replacement first.
  7. Cancel the old subscription so you are not billed again.
  8. Revoke the old API keys and remove stored credentials.
