Bitget takes applications through its LaunchHub listing portal, describes four steps (application, evaluation against legal, compliance and technical security standards, discussion of launch plan and marketing, then listing), states there are no additional charges for listing, and says it does not collaborate with external agencies. MEXC takes applications through its token listing form and publishes Listing Terms that require accurate documents, KYC, source-code disclosure, at least 2 days’ notice before changing key token parameters, disclosure of incidents within 12 hours, and no listing announcement before MEXC’s own; the terms also refer to a refundable liquidity deposit. Verify any contact through each exchange’s official verification page.

Key takeaways

  • Bitget: four published steps; no additional listing charges; no external agencies.
  • MEXC: short form, but binding Listing Terms with notice and disclosure deadlines.
  • MEXC’s terms mention a refundable liquidity deposit; read them before you apply.
  • Both warn about impersonators: verify staff through official pages.

What this means for preparation

Read MEXC’s Listing Terms before you apply: they create obligations your team must meet for as long as the token trades there, including fast incident disclosure.

For both, plan liquidity before trading opens and check your gaps with the readiness score.
