Binance automatically selects the display language based on your system language and IP address. If it shows in English or another language, you can manually switch to Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese. The entire process takes less than 30 seconds and is very simple.
Users who don't have a Binance account yet can first create one at Binance. It's also recommended to download the Binance app — iPhone users can refer to the iOS installation guide — for a smoother Chinese experience.
How to Set Chinese on the App?
Steps for iOS and Android
- Open the Binance App and tap your profile icon in the top-left corner
- Scroll down to find the "Language" option
- Find "Simplified Chinese" or "Traditional Chinese" in the language list
- Tap to select, and the App will automatically refresh to the Chinese interface
- No need to restart the App — the switch takes effect immediately
If you can't find the language option in your profile, try this path: Home → "More" at the bottom-right → "Settings" → "Language."
Where to Find the Language Option
- Old App Version: Profile → Settings → Language
- New App Version: Profile → Language (below user ID)
- Lite Mode: Bottom "More" → Settings → Language
How to Set Chinese on the Web?
Steps for Desktop Browser
- Go to the Binance website (binance.com)
- Find the globe icon in the top-right corner (language switch button)
- Select "Simplified Chinese" from the dropdown language list
- The page will automatically refresh to the Chinese interface
- The setting is saved in browser cookies and will show Chinese on your next visit
If there's no globe icon in the top-right corner, you can find the language switch option at the bottom of the page.
Some Content Still Shows in English After Switching?
This is normal. The following content may still appear in English:
- Cryptocurrency names: International abbreviations like BTC, ETH, USDT
- Trading pair identifiers: Displays like BTC/USDT remain in English
- Some announcements: The latest announcements may be published in English first
- Technical terminology: Industry terms like Maker, Taker, Spot, etc.
These are industry-standard terms and don't affect normal usage. Core function menus, operation guides, and help documentation are all fully translated into Chinese.
What Languages Does Binance Support?
Binance currently supports over 40 languages, mainly including:
- Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese
- English
- Japanese
- Korean
- Spanish
- French
- German
- Portuguese
- Russian
- Turkish
The Chinese translation quality is among the most comprehensive of all cryptocurrency exchanges, with nearly all features having full Chinese support.
What to Do If Language Settings Don't Take Effect?
If switching the language doesn't work, try the following methods:
- Clear cache: Clear browser cache and cookies, then revisit
- Restart the App: Completely close and reopen the App
- Update the App: Make sure you're using the latest version of the Binance App
- Re-login: Log out and log back in to refresh language settings
- Check system language: In some cases, the App follows the phone's system language — setting your phone to Chinese may help
Security Reminders
When changing language settings, please note the following security considerations:
- Operate through official channels only: Only switch language in the official Binance App or website, not through third-party tools
- Beware of fake Chinese customer service: After switching to Chinese, you may receive messages claiming to be "Chinese support" — these are scammers
- Language doesn't affect account security: Switching language won't change your account settings or security configuration
- Be careful with Chinese search: When using Chinese to search for cryptocurrencies, verify search results are accurate before taking action
Where Is Binance Chinese Customer Service?
Binance provides 24-hour Chinese online customer support. In the App, tap "Help Center" → "Online Support," and the system will automatically match you with a Chinese-speaking agent. The web version also has an online support entry in the bottom-right corner. Response time for Chinese support is typically within 5 minutes.
Will Switching to Chinese Change My Registration Region?
No. Language settings and registration region are completely independent. Switching language only changes the interface display language — it doesn't affect your account region, trading permissions, or KYC status.
Is There a Difference Between the Chinese and International Versions of Binance?
Binance has only one unified global version — there is no separate "Chinese version." All users use the same platform with only the interface language being different. Features, fees, and trading pairs are exactly the same.
Will My Trading Records Change After Switching Language?
No. Switching language only affects the interface display. Your trading records, asset balances, order history, and other data remain completely unchanged. All data is stored server-side and is unrelated to client-side language settings.
